for this version? the MG-1 was used for all sounds, including the drums. the original DM version used a Korg drum machine along w/ an Arp 2600 for the kick drum.
MG-1, a little cheaper than a PPG Wave 2.3. Later DepecheMode synth stuff gets more pricey but you can be cheaper with other wavetable stuff. Great job. I did a cover of Only You by Yaz using the newer Prophet '08. Your mixes are not covers though. They are dead on. Now someone needs to use a Moog 16 Voice in monophonic mode and do a cover of New Life. $8000 synth compared to $100 Synth buy. It's not always about the money.
Always been curious about the MG-1 and the Rogue. They look like very simple and fun instruments. Sounds great in this!
So good!! It's a real treat to hear these old songs without the singing... All the better to hear the synths!!
Wow! Sounds great! Love it!
Spot on!
Incredible - I needed this to do my own version (yet to come) - thanks!!
Yes, that is definitely DM's "New Life" to the quarter note. The MG 1 is actually a Moog synthesizer in a home sized package.
Astonishingly good !
well done! unbelievable that this MG-1 can reacreate the track quit accuratly.
“I am sure Depeche Mode would be proud of cover version of their Song New Life very much indeed “
So sick
just wow!
Oh yeah.great job.
What drum machine were used?

I can't believe someone let that go for $100. They are going for $1000 these days. I'd like to have one, but not at that price point.
