Sounds like the CS80 plugin.

I'd say that's a hoax. Vangelis' leads have an assurance that comes  

with keyboard mastery as well as a particular logic to his melodies  

even on an off day or less than inspired. This track has a certain  

tentativeness like someone is trying to play their best but who's just  

okay. It lacks any of the uncommon sounds Vangelis turns to over and  

over. It has some inspired by sounds but those are ones anyone could  

easiy find. Also something snuck out of a studio might have an over  

duped sound like it passed through a couple media - like mag film,  

cassette, etc. This just sounds like a home studio recording. Not that  

Vangelis didn't sneak a couple hotel recorded tracks onto his later  

albums as filler (a track of 2 on the regular edition "El Greco" for  

instance), but he was at Nemo during Blade Runner.
