What, there's no way in AMS to do the Moog trill from the middle of "Trilogy"? ;-)

Great tune. That whole record rules. 

Try loading up the instruments/miniams_pan_drift.ams patch from the AMS package, open the "Paremeter View" window, cycle through to preset #4 ("Soft Bass Synth") and you're pretty close. Tighten up the attack and decay, remove the release, and close down the filter a bit, and have a listen.

I did the above, and added a little slew limiter, and got this (using preset #10):

http://www.restivo.org/misc/toohigh-attempt.ogg

Not perfect, but hope it helps you get a head start. One or more of the oscillators in the Stevie Wonder patch might be a triangle not a saw-- three saws sounds might be too buzzy compared to the recording.

Maybe ask on the AMS list too?
