Hi AT, no nothing in particular, I think that the stock square waves are enough.

Here's a very quick attempt for Rapture.
It's not a clone, just relying on memory and personal taste
- two square waves, slightly detuned
- set to multi just to get some additional fatness (I know, this is cheating  ... )
- generous amount of portamento
- quick amp attack - but not zero in order to avoid clicks and help the portamento itself
- LP4 filter almost completely open, good amount of resonance in order to add some air
- very light amount of tube distortion before the filter
- hall reverb

I want to check that one out Francesco but I can't find my preset folder to place it in.

my preset folder is C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Rapture\Programs anyway, if you just want to try it you can save it anywhere and load it with the Load Program command

FYI C:\ProgramData is a hidden directory

Well, Francesco, you came pretty darn close.  I just played the outro from Lucky Man (also from memory, and using your preset).  I think that a *lot* of people might believe that it was from the original Moog.  I added one more control for the 'requisite' downward sweep of the LP4 filter.
 
Quick thought on loading up the isolated preset here & there.  The fastest way is to use drag & drop.  I tend to have Rapture open first (maybe the Microhost), download the .prog file, then immediately drag it over to Rapture and drop it in.  Instant gratification.
 
If you're hunting for the (often changing) file locations, clicking on Rapture's folder/file icon and "Browse Programs ..." gets you to the current location.  It also gives me an idea of where I want to permanently put the preset for a "Save As ..." operation.  In this case, that was Francesco - Miscellaneous.
