Jay Wires Depeche Mode Shout Cover Roland SH-2 Korg Volca Beats SQ1 Vintage Synthesizer Sequencer


video upload by Jay Wires

"Roland SH-2 (modified) sequenced by Korg SQ-1 analog sequencer with Korg Volca Beats on drums. I was just goofing around for a couple minutes and came up with this sequence that reminded me of Depeche Mode "Shout", off their debut album Speak & Spell, which is one of my favorite albums ever. Vince Clarke wrote most of the songs before leaving to form Yaz and then Erasure. The SH-2 here has been modified for oscillator sync. What would normally be the keyboard gate output jack is now a CV input for VCO2 that's activated when the bender switch is in the right position. I used the CV out of the sequencer to control VCO2's pitch for timbral modulation and used the sequencer's gate out to trigger the envelope generator on the SH-2 (via the SH's gate input). As you can see, I transposed the sequence manually by playing the keyboard.

What's your favorite Depeche Mode album? I flip flop between Speak & Spell, Black Celebration and Violator."
