Any idea how to program this pluck?

I'm looking for some help in figuring out how to program the pluck that's in this remix:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXP1X5wsTO0

The sound starts at about 0:59; and you can also hear it clearly at 2:45). It sounds like a combo of a saw and square waves whose cutoff freq is being modulated, but I tried doing that and the sound doesn't come out the same. I also tried transposing but that didn't help either. Maybe it's layered with something else?

Appreciate any thoughts. Thanks!

Idk I dont here a saw wave in there. Sounds like a Fifth chord type sound and defiantly square with sounds like its in the transparent range of 6Khz to 10Khz. Maybe my ears just suck. I hate that song xD

Thanks.

I'll try programing just using the square waves and will pitch one up to a fifth. Hopefully, that'll do the trick.

Now I'm also wondering if there is slight pitch modulation there as well?

p.s. I figured I'd get some smack for posting a pop tune to a TA forum =) But I really like that one sound and would love to know how to make it.

Sounds like automating the attack of the envelope is the key, and using a light cutoff mode (like 12db or even 6). Don't like that sound though, much more of a fan of the more clear crispy plucks. Hate that track too, way too over played at my house :D

This songs reminds me of an accordion. It might even be that.

It is, but I think the OP meant the pluck behind that sound.
