The Aphex Twin ''On'' sound

[Shkyboy]

Hi forum, I'm relatively new to music production and was just wondering what you think rdj used to get that lead melody (pianoey) sound, as it sounds so beautiful and pure; an analog preset perhaps?
Thanks!

ya right an analog preset... LOL

it's called a goddamn PIANO. specifically a modified programmable one, but still the real thing. you can try approaching the sound with a really good multisample, but you still have to play it right (kinda like a moog is useless if you can't play it).
