The Blade Runner soundtrack was composed by Vangelis for Ridley Scott’s 1982 film Blade Runner. It is mostly a dark, melodic combination of classical composition and synthesizers which mirrors the futuristic film nor envisioned by Scott.

Vangelis main keyboard was the Yamaha CS80,

Below are the chains and settings I used to recreate the theme using Electro-Harmonix pedals:

Awesome!!!!

Do you suppose the combination of pedals/guitars/cabling weighs more or less than the 220lb monstrosity that is the CS80? If we were to recreate this live, that is.

The CS-80 was a HEAVY keyboard!!!
I wonder how did ever shipped that thing!
They are on Ebay once in awhile.
I would love to see one.

Well…. cover me in eggs and flour and bake me for forty minutes…..

Unbelievable Bill.

When you think Effectology can’t get any better…. you throw this one in. Unbelievable.
