Anyone got one of these? I'm kinda' tempted.

From the demos it sounds pretty good. I like the idea of it being able to play some of the old Roland synths down the line.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance! :)

Take a peek over at GS.
Massive thread there. They seem to like it (which is rare).

I'd just like to say that I had no idea what "GS" was, and if it hadn't been for the link posted after, I would never have found it.

Ok and I'd just like to say I wasn't replying to you ;)

I haven't actually played one... only listened to demos...

as for the SH-101 audio demos, it did not sound better to me than the emulations already available (Lush and Tal)

the System 1 is VST3 and AU... so if for example, you use Live on a PC, it will not be compatible. Same for Bitwig on Mac or PC, and same for other PC hosts that are not VST3 compatible yet.

System-1 hardware... the keyboard does not have velocity... which kills it as a general controller for me...

Why only 8 presets??

I really like the plug-out concept cause it gives the option of being computer free... I'm not excited with this iteration of it though... Maybe in the future with System-2 with more controls, more keys (25 just aint enough for me), and velocity and AT... and 16 button step sequencer included... and that works well as a general midi controller too... then I would be enticed because it would be more of a multi-purpose hub. As is, I'd rather just get a real analog monosynth...

I got the tr8 and tb3 on release and I love them both,however I cannot get into the system 1
live 11 / Arturia collection / many Softube plug ins / thats it

Thanks for pointing that out mate. Can't believe I missed it. :oops:

Lush is a beast! And I really like the TAL, but after I bought it, I thought it was a little light in the lower bass, compared to the original hardware.

Interestingly, my mate’s arrived on monday, and he says it has a big thump to it. He’s got a decent monitor set up, which you can’t really hear on YT unfortunately.

No worries. I ordered mine earlier today! :). So, I’ll put a few tests up on my sound cloud.

Fingers crossed it lives up to the hype.
