This track has been out for a couple years now, and I still haven't nailed the main synth sound. It comes in straight away, and is the most noticeable sound.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

You don't need a complex synth for this one. All you need is a plain sine wave, and then play this chord:
c-5, d#5, f-5, g-5, a#5, c-6, d-6
Set the pitchbend to 7 semitones and you should be good.

As yiNXs said the waveforms you use should be quite simple, try a triangle and/or saw wave.
There's a lot of pitchbend automation but also some subtle vibrato (the pitch of the oscillator is behind modulated very quickly).
Use quite a few voices from your oscillator all detuned slightly to soften the sound up.
Use a slowish attack time for the amplitude envelope with full sustain so the note plays the full time you press the key or input the midi.
