Just as an FYI, it's wasn't a Minimoog that Steve Winwood used. Here's a quote:

Quote:
"For the last 2 albums I've used a Multimoog for bass and some lead lines, and a Prophet 5, a polysynthesizer made by Sequential Circuits, for most leads on Arc of a Diver. I also used a Steinway piano and a Yamaha CS-80, too, as well as a host of different guitars: an Ovation acoustic, this 1954 Fender Stratocaster, an Ibanez mandolin on a track of Arc of a Diver.

On this last album, I used the Prophet 5 exclusively, which is very limiting; I would never have dreamed that I would have found myself doing that. I just never found the need for any sound I couldn't get out of the Prophet 5. And the Multimoog is where I get the effect that everybody thinks is a saxophone. In terms of drums, I use a Haman kit, with a Ludwig snare, and a Linn Electronics, LM-1 box. Lastly, I use a Roland Vocoder and an ANS Phaser, model DMT20. By using a 16-track machine, you overcome most limitations on the part of the instruments, in addition to several of one's own shortcomings. And with my new-found wealth, I've already ordered a new 24-track custom board.

"Rock's Gentle Aristocrat"
Musician, October 1982"

So it was a Multimoog.

Love this. I just did some work on a basic bluesy pop song that currently has a measly 43 tracks, not including reverb and drum buses.

They were artists then. Trying to work with only one synth and 16 tracks. I feel ashamed for having 2 synths and a 24 track Tascam ... Embarassed

I have to say that choosing a hardware recorder instead of a DAW makes me focus on the track not the gear.

In the Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton at Madison Square Garden DVD, he played a Yamaha Grand, a Hammond B3, and a Minimoog Voyager.

But he also had another keyboard player onstage with a host of instruments.

I'm just covering (trying to!) the track 'While you see a chance' and using the Behringer Poly D to emulate the moog part. As you say the Poly D emulates a mini moog (model D) so it doesn't have PWM, however I've got the sound extremely close using a single oscillator set to the 2nd narrow pulse waveform and using an extremely short filter envelope to add some zing to the attack of the sound. Careful adjustment of the filter sustain level and cut off and it sounds pretty good!
