Alright, I got a reply!
So hopefully this will at least get you the basic sound.

All of the oscillators are square waves (16’)
Cutoff is at 10:00 (on a minimoog, not sure what this equates too, but you can probably figure it out by ear)
No resonance
Contour is at 1:00 (again, on a D)
Envelopes have immediate attacks and short release times
And he recommends using the “Electric Mistress Flanger” to get a closer sound.

Personally, I’ve been throwing in a bit of Triangle waved LFO to the Filter, because I don’t have any flangers.
if you dont have a flanger try putting the osc into sync and sweeping the sync’d osc with your triangle LFO .HAVE THE OCTAVE SETTING OF THIS OSC SET QUITE LOW SO THE SWEEP SORT OF GOES IN AND OUT OF RANGE BUT DOES’NT GO TO HIGH, IT HAS A NICE EFFECT WHEN IT COMES IN AND OUT OF THE LO RANGE FIDDLE ABOUT SEE WHAT YOU THINK

LFO NEEDS TO BE SET TO PITCH AS OPPOSED TO THE FILTER,

Thanks for the tip about sweeping the synced Oscillator! It’s a great sounding effect!
