Ghost Rider Modular

YouTube Uploaded by FOCtv on Nov 16, 2011

"Mr. Hand demos a synthesizers.com patch utilizing a CatGirl Synth Sub Octave Divider module. The sequence is a facsimile of Suicide's song Ghost Rider done with a Synthesizers.com Q119 Sequential Controller. It's not the complete riff since Marty Rev's riff is poly-rhythmic and I could only use 8 steps of the analog sequencer. The organ-like tonality is from the CGS Sub-Octave module which can function similarly to the divide down technology used in electric organs."
