I could make sounds like that on a Roland Juno 60. Too much is made
about how 'cheap' the gear they use in Detroit is, but the fact is
it's all gear that was cheap until the early 90s and expensive ever
since.
And yeah that weird pitch bend at the start of each note is the same
on both and is probably a single source sampled by both people.
Though Mills puts vibrato on it.

well, I still think that the synth patch on these both youtube
clips comes
from the
exact same source. that is, a preset or something, on the stuff
they used.
and no,
its no modular synth. no its not beefy analog. because most of the
stuff
used were
on the cheap side. or gotten cheap. . Im thinking this would be
some kind of
sampler
patch or something in that direction. ,, surely someone has dug
into this
before.
listen to the clips again, name that synth ,, thats what
controlling my
brain atm.

I think that I'd classify that as an analog string sound, which I'd
try to approximate using pulse width modification of a square wave,
then run it into a chorus + reverb. I don't think that Neil was
borrowing Jeff's synth. They both used similar sounds and then did
similar (but not the same) sort of pitch bending action.
It's a case of form following function. They both needed a string
synth sound, and both being Detroit dudes, they both gravitated
towards the same kind of sound.
Now that I've done my forensic analysis I must say that I really
love
both pieces, and when I listen to them, normally, I'm not trying to
recreate their patches on my Jupiter 6 ;-)
