I care because I want to make instrumental remakes of songs like these. I wonder if any of the sounds were presets? I was thinking of software I could get, and I already thought of M1 and Wavestation legacy and Proteus VX. I wonder if any of those songs used an M1, Wavestation, Proteus, or Sound Canvas? Also, D50, DX7 or Juno?

Some of those sounds I heard (bells, sitar-like sounds etc) sound like an FM synth to me. The yamaha DX-7 & D50 were popular those years. The DX-7 was produced from 83 - 89 and the D-50 first came out in 1987. On the iPad there is the DXi FM synth https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dxi-fm-synthesizer/id370138065?mt=8 There are others for the iPad to such as the TF7 and FM4.
