Anyone thinking about getting the new Roland SH-4d? It looks pretty good, better than the MC-707 is some ways (more immediate, more direct access to parameters, less menus).

While I think it’s a shame they didn’t add any song capabilities or chaining, I think as a multitimbral synth it looks and sounds amazing. I’m really tempted to buy one but might wait until it’s available to the public to get some user feedback. For example I noticed that not one of the demo videos showed it changing from one pattern to another. They all stopped the sequencer before choosing another pattern. I’d like to hear how in performs in this regard, e.g. does the release and effects tails get cut off when changing patterns. Also, how well does it respond to program changes from…Read More

The shimmer reverb sounds great! Do you think the mini keys will be too small for Bella to be able to play though? 🐱

I quite fancy trying the EA-1 now. If anyone has one for sale let me know!

I ended up buying an old EMX-1 in the end. So much fun! Will keep the ER-1 to use alongside it. The EMX-1 is so much easier to use than the new electribe 2 (less menu surfing) and has proper step entry which the new one lacks. Anyone else still using the older electribes?

I’ve been eyeing this one to replace (or supplement?) my JD-Xi. I really like the SH-101 and Juno-106 models in videos I’ve seen. There’s plenty of effects, a more powerful sequencer than the Xi, it runs on batteries, and sound editing is a LOT more accessible. As for replacing the MC-707 with it, the SH-4d is marketed as a multitimbral synth rather than a groovebox and it doesn’t have pattern chain or song mode, so that’s something to consider. It also doesn’t have any ability to load user samples and the PCM waveforms are limited. But, limitations aside, it looks like a great…Read More
