Roland SH-01A Sound Module Gray with Decksaver Cover

The Roland SH-01A sound module resurrects the iconic SH-101 monosynth in a modern form factor loaded with new creative capabilities. Using Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology, the SH-01A faithfully models the original's legendary oscillator, filter and envelope circuits down to every nuance and quirk. However, this is no mere reissue—the SH-01A expands on the SH-101's signature sound with polyphonic modes, an advanced LFO and a powerful built-in sequencer. Whether you're a vintage keys enthusiast or a contemporary beat maker, this compact yet mighty synth delivers the authentic SH vibe with modern versatility. The Iconic SH-101 Sound Reborn The original SH-101 monosynth was beloved for its rich, punchy basses, creamy leads and evocative sound effects. Roland's ACB modeling meticulously recreates the SH-101's analog character, from the smooth, warm oscillator to the throaty filter and snappy envelopes. You'll swear you're playing a vintage unit as you sculpt thick, gritty tones and futuristic textures. Yet the SH-01A goes further—a polyphonic mode lets you play up to four voices simultaneously, while the unison mode delivers a hugely fat, stacked timbre. Explore a whole new universe of sounds while savoring that unmistakable SH-101 vibe. Expanded Creative Dimensions While staying true to the minimalist brilliance of the SH-101, the SH-01A packs a wealth of new creative features. The arpeggiator inspires melodic ideas with three playback modes, note hold and a three-way transpose switch. The built-in sequencer has room for 64 patterns—far beyond the SH-101's limits. You can sync it to external MIDI clock or the selectable LFO with new waveforms and extended rate range. Onboard controls let you tweak and mangle sounds in real-time. For even deeper sonic exploration, the SH-01A sends control voltages from its oscillator, filter and envelopes via CV/Gate outputs to interface with modular rigs and vintage gear. Compact Yet Road-Worthy The SH-01A packs the iconic SH-101 sound into a modern form factor ready for the studio or stage. Its compact size and light weight make it easy to integrate into any music production setup. You get hands-on access to all parameters via front-panel controls—no menus to navigate. A rugged build with metal front panel ensures it can withstand the rigors of live performance and travel. The included Decksaver cover shields the synth from dust, spills and impacts when it's stowed in a bag or case. Authentic Vintage Character With Modern Versatility For over 35 years, the Roland SH-101 monosynth has inspired countless musicians with its bold, gritty character and signature sound. The SH-01A lets you tap directly into that magic while expanding the creative potential in exciting new ways.
