SH-201 - i already want one!
13 Jul 2006, 19:06Hello everyone, this is my first post here.
I have seen the advertisements for the new SH-201, read the manual, and watched the demos. (Roland where are the audio demos??)
So far I am really interested. The SH-201 already has me sold on all its features, but I'm still hoping it sounds good. Everyone is saying that it is identical to the VA section on the V-Synth? Is this true? If so, how is the VA on the V-Synth? I have heard mixed reviews about it, good and bad. How do the sounds compare to something like the Ion? Will the SH-201 be capable of doing everything?-like leads,pads,basses,electronic percussion?
Things I really like:
-easy UI
-no menus
-8 phrase sequencer, for laying down some ideas to later record in DAW
-computer interface / compatibility
-the only 3 effects i need (reverb, delay, distortion)
These things really make a difference to me, and even if the sound is not as good as the Ion, I will probably still buy the SH-201. (but i hope it is better!)
What do you guys think?!
