Proof that "big things come in small packages", the Roland SH-101 Synthesizer was introduced in 1982 with portability and affordability in mind, but now occupies a massive space in the history of popular music. Simple to program but surprisingly flexible, the Roland SH-101 is among the "most fun" synths ever- it came in 3 different colors and could even be played like a keytar! Thanks to an inviting interface and great analog sounds, the "101" found its way on to records by the decade's most popular artists, and remains a much-coveted synth by today's top producers.
The Roland SH-101 Software Synthesizer brings all the fun (minus the "keytar" hand grip and step sequencer!) of the hardware instrument to the desktop of producers everywhere! As with all ACB-powered synths, the SH-101's character and spirit of fun are completely captured by this amazing recreation, available exclusively on Roland Cloud.
