Synth sound help

Using x2 producer.... I've been searching for a synthesizer sound resembling the "Journey" sound like the synth used in Seperate ways or something along the lines of Van Halens jump. Any recommendations? Thank you...

    Yep the Oberheim OB-X is THE jump sound. Recreatable to a degree with any polysynth I should think. Isn't it like a stack of stacked saw waves all detuned or something?

    Out of the bundled synths Pentagon should get you close. Starting from scratch I would try Sawtooth waves from the oscillators, filters in single mode, low pass.
     
    I can only listen on my crappy lap top speakers at the moment but here are three patches that could be a starting point in Bank A

    Also check out OB Sawpad in Rapture.

    @wizard71,
     
    That is correct, and lots of synths can get that sound.  Many of them have something like it in the factory presets, as it was a HUGELY popular sound when it came out and for long after.  The 'fat' part of that sound is from multiple slightly detuned saws.
