Vintage Synth Explorer

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.

The SH7 deserved to be more popular, it harnessed a lot of SH power into a extremely usuable and useful duophonic design. Unfortunatly it was practically ignored in favour of new Polyphonivc Synths such as the P5 and the Release of Roland's own 'affordable' Jupiter-4 made the SH7 seem a little redundant.

Fantastic machine though, one of Roland's best kept sectrets in the world of Analogue Synthesis.

actually "everyone" is right. in synthesizers duophonic means you can play up to two different keys at once.

By "duophonic" do you actually mean duophonic, or two-voice polyphonic? Everyone gets that wrong.
