An Analog-modeling Synth That's Fun to Play!
For musicians new to synthesizers, Roland announces the most friendly and fun analog-modeling instrument on the market: the SH-201. For synth pros, the SH-201 will remind them of why they fell in love with synthesizers in the first place. The SH-201 is a blast to play! It sounds great too, thanks to such features as Roland's famous Supersaw waveform, resonant filter, saturation control, and more.

Roland SH-201 Synthesizer at a Glance:
  • Great analog-style sound
  • Ultra-easy operation
  • USB connectivity
  • External audio input

Great analog-style sound
Even though it's super fun and easy to use, the SH-201 is no toy when it comes to sound. With two beefy analog-modeling oscillators on board, complete with Roland's famous Supersaw waveform and resonant filter, this little synth can blow down doors. It also comes with high-quality delay and reverb effects for adding depth and dimension to the sound, a saturation control for adding a ripsaw edge, and an arpeggiator for instant rhythmic motion.

Ultra-easy operation
This is synthesis at its friendliest. The SH-201's front panel puts every control directly under your fingertips in a logically positioned signal path from left to right. No hidden menus, no nonsense. Just play and move the knobs and sliders. It's as simple as that! Students of synthesis will love the ease and immediate gratification of the SH-201. No other modern synth on the market is as fun, friendly, and inviting.

USB connectivity
Connect the SH-201 to a computer (Mac or PC) with one simple USB cable. Send and receive MIDI and audio through the USB port. Take advantage of the VSTi editing software that's included with the SH-201 to manipulate sounds from your computer, and to save/organize patches remotely (Editing software compatible with AU also from Version 1.10. See "Downloads" page).

External audio input
Playing the SH-201 from its keyboard is only half the fun. Try plugging another audio source into its external input (such as CD/MP3-player and samplers) and twist the sound with the front-panel knobs and sliders. Wave your hands over the SH-201's invisible D Beam and drive the audience wild!


Roland SH-201 Synthesizer Features:
  • Great-sounding analog-modeling synth

  • External input for manipulating external audio from CD/MP3 players, etc.
  • Built-in delay, reverb, and saturation effects
  • Arpeggiator adds instant rhythmic motion to sounds
  • USB port for audio/MIDI connection to computer
  • VSTi Editor software included for computer integration
  • Invisible infrared D Beam controller

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "Knobs, buttons, sliders and lots of glowing lights... this board has it all! WARNING! This keyboard is extremely addictive. The sounds are thick and rich and so easy to warp and change on the fly. If you're like me, you will spend hours turning knobs and moving sliders. Do yourself a favor: start a creative frenzy and pick up a SH201 today!"
Matt Adams

  "This is a great piece to add to any synth setup. Easy to use and extremely versatile, the Roland SH-201 is an affordable solution for anyone who wants that great analog sound without spending lots of money. It also works great as a MIDI controller and a VSTi plug-in!"
Phil Basile
