Ppoopp - part 3

Yet another cover of Depeche Mode's Newlife to try out my new Arturia Minibrute.

For anyone interested, everything you hear is produced by the Minbrute. I have only added a little echo and reverb.

Perfect Strangers demo

Modular Spaceship

ESQ-1 and SR18. Polyphonic LFOs on the osc sync patches "Eoww" and "Pwrsnk" sound awesome. Most other synthesizers (hardware and software) have a monophonic shared LFO. Hard to believe it could be done back in '86.  "Choir2" is the voice patch. Kinda sounds like a Fairlight. Layered together with ChoirX, I think it sounds better than a Fairlight. Some voice stealing happens in this song because the ESQ-1 is only 8 note polyphonic. Those Curtis analog filters work their magic with the digital waveforms for a great hybrid 80s sound.
