Help Making The JD-800 Crystal Rhodes In The PX-5S

[eRock92]

Hello.  I'm trying to see if I can (somewhat) recreate the Crystal Rhodes/EP sound from the JD-800.  From what I can gather from the internet, that patch was made with an EP waveform, a pad waveform, and a gamelan waveform.  The PX-5S has comparable EP and pad waveforms, what I can't find is something similar to the gamelan sound.  All the metallic percussion has "thud" sound and the synths have a guitar "pluck" sound.  I need that "tink" sound from the JD's waveform.

 

Does anyone have any ideas to get that sound from the PX-5S?  I'm about two to three weeks into this, and am bashing my head against the wall.  I'm starting to think I may need to use 2 HexLayers to make it; one for the gamelan sound and the other for the EP-pad layer.  Aside from that, I still need to figure out how the filters effected those old waveforms to match that.  Any help in the right direction would be appreciated.   Thank, y'all.

Which audio example are you using to model your sound?

There's tons of videos demoing the Crystal Rhodes sound.  Here's one for example  -->  CRYSTAL RHODES DEMO

Here's a video of the pure waveform.  The link should begin at time stamp 8:20 with the "Gamelan 1" waveform at timestamp -->  GAMELAN WAVEFORMS

Lastly, here's the only video I have found where someone actually played the individual waveforms that make up the Crystal Rhodes sound -->  CRYSTAL RHODES LAYERS

I think between the FM EP samples in the PX-5S, the warm pad samples, the EP attack samples, chorus, delay, and reverb effects, a pretty convincing hex layer tone can be put together.  Seems like a lot of the retro magic is in the effects on this one, and of course a suitable balance of sample layers.
