Roland SH-7
A very flexible oldie from Roland. Standard SH sound with lots more creative control and tweak-ability! The VCO's are a little different than traditional SH synths, they are syncable! There's also a mixer for all the audio signals which can be distorted for brash techno sounds. It's fun and easy to use but very powerful and perfect for screamin' techno sounds and effects! It features many new functions like an external audio input, a ring modulator, syncable VCO's, more waveform shapes, white/pink noise generators and sample+hold. It has been used by INXS.

Anyway, amazing looking synth. I have heard a Roland system 100 and it blew me away, so if the Sh7 sounds anything like it then wow!
Keep Making Noise!
Funny thing though, always thought mine was a later one as its the highest number I've seen listed but it is actually an earlier one from September 1978. Found out thanks to the Roland Serial number checker thing.
