What type of reverb is used on this piece, especially on the main lead.

I have 2 Lexicon MPX100 units at my disposal but am unsure which setting would be best?

Considering the time when Oxygene and Equinoxe were made, i use Plate and Spring type settings, to try to match the type of reverb available at this time.

Was there real Reverb at that time? There was no DSP's so how did they work?

Plate and spring reverbs work electromechanical. You can read about it here

Any idea what Jarre used in Equinoxe?
Didn't Arp2600 have a built in spring reverb?

I don't know, but I would guess he used both. Early analog delay units (with sufficient repeat heads) are able to produce a useful type of reverb too.

Yes.

Yes, ARP as a built in spring reverb, and Eminent 310 too as far as i know. I don't if the reverb unit in those gear was use in the track, or if JMJ use reverb unit in the mix.

And i don't know which device is use for global mix reverb ; i think about a plate one, wich would be more logic
