SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
Hey V-Tribe,
I've decided that since the 201 is based on the V-Synth analog modeling engine, then there will be no better home for it than our forums, agreed?
I will soon add the available info to the Roland CLAN archives.

Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
Looks like a capable little synth! I hope they offer better parameter smoothing though, as that's really much more critical if they plan on making it competitve with other VAs out there. Thankfully, the design looks reminiscent of the vintage Roland synths (which guessing by the name, is the idea...).
I must say though, the marketing hype on the SH-201 page of Roland's site is pretty lame. Ultra-EZ front panel, an external input for manipulating CDS/mp3s, etc...

Roland Juno G
Hi Artemio,
Do you think Juno G = SH 201+ Fantom X series? Do you know by when it will be on the market?
Cheers

Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
Juno-G is based on the Fantom-X engine, SH-201 is based on the V-Synth VA section. As about when, from the NAMM videos I heard it will be June (I guess they're still working on it).
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
I think the Juno G looks pretty cool. It's supposed to have a subsantially lower price tag than the Fantoms, so I could see myself buying the synth. It seems the synth section is identical to that found in the Fantom, including filters and effects...(?)
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
Yes, correct, you get the complete Fantom-X engine, 128 voices, all the synthesis and effects power, sampling/resampling. Juno-G is an amazing synth in my opinion, can't wait to test it when it's here.
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
hey artemio ,i"ve heard sh201 its only monophonic..thats true?..if so ,did or not the sh201 same engine from v-synth???!!!
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
What *clever* person told you that? And can't you hear and see in the video that it's not monophonic? It has 10 voices, pretty enough for 1-part synth especially in this price range.
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
sorry if im rong ...but was a roland sellers men who told me that.only monophonic the sh201!! ...hi hope hes rong .it makes no sense if the machine has the same v-synth engine!!!im i right??
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
by the way...where can i see the videos demo sh201??
Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
Go to Roland US site or SonicState.com, both have SH-201 videos.

SH-201 = JP-8000, Juno G = Fantom Xa
This really takes things 1 logical step further, since the Vsynth's VA section comes in large part from the JP-8000 (ala Supersaw Wave) the SH-201 looks to be a rehash of the JP-8000, moreso than a little brother to the V-Synth IMHO. I don't think the FX or modulation abilities are even comparable to the V-Synth. A freind who went to NAMM said the SH pretty much sounded the same as a JP.
Having said that...it's not a bad thing...the JP-8000 was a great synth and should be around in a cheaper form!
I do agree the VST Interface is a cool add on ....
As for the Juno-G it is spec for spec the same as the Fantom Xa...just in a better looking box.
Just wondering if anyone else is getting a little sick of the same synth being reissued over and over....this problem isn't just Roland's either...

Re: SH-201, the little V-Synth's brother
Add also the VP-550 that take place of the VC-2
So add,
in Vtribe => SH-201 / VP-550
in Fantomized => Juno-G
