Zebra banks, 80s synths?

Listen, I've been researching for weeks to find an IOS (iPad) that would give me some of the iconic sounds from the 80s. Especially synths on songs like If I Could Turn Back Time (that synth line coming on top during the chorus), Mony Mony by Billy Idol, etc.

The iPad quest was not positive, the Korg Module is disappointing, and I didn't want to shell for SampleTank. I was able to approximate some of them on my Korg Trinity, except the Cher song. So I'm looking for a VST with presets that are much closer.

Would you know of any VST (with presets) that would bring me closer to this elusive universe?

Thanks in advance!

Perhaps more Blade Runner and Stranger Things than Cher, but 80s nevertheless.

Ah yes, the demo song "We Float Away" has that synth stab much closer. Now to purchase and run Zebra on an i3 Core with 8GB. :) I may be forced to. I'm nervous, though, Zebra could lead me to disconnect from my daily work!

Wonder if Matt has these kinds of sounds for Omni 2...

Thanks a bunch!

Omni 2 is not the best option for 80s IMO and I don't think Matt has any.

He does have a few for Diva though, but I'm sure that would crush your i3.
