Synth sound?

I'm looking for a synth sound as on Queen's I Want to Break Free. Sounds like a standard 80s synth, if there is such a thing, DX7?
 
I have Atmosphere, Omnisphere and a couple of others.
 
Thanks - rev

    i googled it, and apparently, the sound comes from a Roland Jupiter 8, as per the commentary from Brian May on the 'Greatest Video Hits 1' DVD

    3.5 Ghz AMD 6-Core/16 gigs RAM, Roland Quad-Capture, Win 10, Cakewalk by Bandlab, Komplete 10, z3ta+, Z3TA+ 2, Rapture, Maschine 2.7 (MKI & Jam), Melodyne 4 Studio, Ozone 4, Jam Origin MIDI Guitar 2, Schecter Damien Elite, Fender Sonoran w/TronicalTune Plus installed, etc

    You'll probably find it in the Roland Groove synth.

    The Roland VG88 has a pretty good emulation of the solo patch on it. I can't get the whole way through the solo without laughing tho.

    A real Jupiter 8? . I was into buying and fixing synths a couple of years ago. Then the Jupiter 8 was going for about 6000.00  to 8000.00 . I saw one the other day for sale for 14,000. Kooky money I say.
