The keyboard has been arranged for guitar on the 2nd staff, notes on A string are 8va bassa. The bass sound is likely a Moog Taurus Pedal sound (sawtooth wave with a rapid closing filter). The right hand melody sounds like a Mini-Moog (a sawtooth wave with a somewhat rapid attack but with the filter open relatively wide to achieve a string-like sound). On the promo video Geddy plays both parts with the same sound on a Mini-Moog. It is clear that the bass sound on the promo-video deviates from the original studio recording.
