Def not a modern sh101, looks a bit too big to be that, lol
But in all seriousness, come on analog!

Re: New synth from Roland?
another average VA with another legacy name no doubt!
which one haven't they done yet? hmmmmm...............all of em. yup.
well, maybe it's a new analog drum machine or bass synth.... seems too small to be a synth.....
maybe a 2 octave?

They mean using a legacy name on a new instrument with hardly any relation to the original instrument.synthparts wrote:Nope, already used -tim gueguen wrote:There's still the Saturn name to be used.
Roland will most likely never make another analog synth, so you can rule that one out.

There's still a chance tho, eventually all the people that work at Roland will retire and make way for new and hopefully the new like analog.Z wrote: Roland will most likely never make another analog synth, so you can rule that one out.

Re: New synth from Roland?
Hmm... Yeah, it seems the website assuming a module might be a good guess. Though I don't know how the guy could see under the tape from a photo. But you can see "ta" & "mo"..
