either a fairlight using a record singer or a real choir. I mean it is just a few singers max 4 not a choir. COuld also just be one singer overdubbed.The sound is too crisp to be a mellotron or orchestron. Best synth now ? To get that sound, honestly, east wests choir thing sounds pretty synthetic like this one. Omnisphere has one too. M1 is a little too synthetic. Any triton like workstation will have one.

Alright, forget Billy Idol. What about the Trisco track? To me they sound like the exact same sound but I might be wrong

The last track sounds like a classic analogue vocoder like this Roland 70's one as used by Laurie Anderson
As you listen (about 1 minute ++ in) you can hear parts that sound like the choir in your second track there where the beat is playing, not in the track breaks;
not even close. THe last one could be a mellotron or one of the roland workstation synths and could be replicated using the tools I mentioned before with a low pass filter and some drive to make it sound like a mellotron. Or you could just use the Gforce mellotron app as mentioned. Not sure if it is the altitude but your hearing is ed.

Any old choir sample will do I think with LP (or even wide BP) as mentioned and probably a teeny touch of LFO driven pitch modulation as well.

Which one do you think? I bet that sound in the Trisco track is from a workstation... gotta find out which one I need that sound

wouldn't not be a vst as the track is early 2000.There were giga libraries however the strings sound like roland rompler stock. Off the top of my head, the Roland JV-1080 or something in that line. Had mellotron style sounds.
The only way you will know for sure is a gear list. But the timing is right. 1998 i believe. THe emu proteus is also a possibility.
