Could be anything unfortunately. Although I know a fair bit of Hoods earlier stuff used a lot of DX7/FM sounding stuff, so maybe Yamaha DX7?

Of course, I'm biased about the DX7, so I'm likely wrong :)

its def a fm synth
mayb a D10 / 110


DJZeMig_L got some great advise here on the board
Make some solid notes ... make 2 duplicates on 2 different tracks...

Change they're start position make those lower in volume now random the volume of those tracks so that they kinda of come in and out in no predictable way!!

This is little crazy trick I used 2 do... 2 create some kinda of robert Hood/ Mills fuelled sequences.

The main secret is to have a few solid timmed/ volume notes in the more standard places... otherwise yer sequence will sound like a drunken keyboard player on an acid trip!!! lol

SX as some niffty randomise feat. 4 each track... b4 u had the IPS, Interactive Phrase Synt.

I think you can use an arpegiator and some delay + reverb, you can play only one note if the synth has more than 3 oscillators... or maybe you can play a note chord with a keyboard...
I'm not expert musician, so I prefer the first option.
Also you will need to adjust the envelope with a fast attack and not so longer decay...
I'm not sure of this, but maybe he used more than one waveform type, it has sawtooth, but maybe some sinewave too.

It's not easy to describe using words, especially if the english is not the native language...

he makes most of his new stuff in reason so what synth it is doesnt matter
he just uses a lot of carefully made synths
my only advice to you is to work as quickly as possible to not grow numb because ull start percieving shit sounds as great sounds and vice versa..
