1976 Roland SH-5 44-Key Monophonic Analog Synthesizer with Cover and Manual

Description: 1976 Roland SH-5 44-Key Monophonic Analog Synthesizer with Cover and Manual The 1976 Roland SH-5 is a legendary monophonic analog synthesizer, revered for its advanced features and powerful sound. A predecessor to the SH-7, the SH-5 stands out with its comprehensive array of controls and sound-shaping capabilities, making it one of the most versatile mono-synths ever produced.Equipped with two analog VCOs offering triangle, ramp, square, and pulse waveforms, two LFOs, two filters, two VCAs, and both white and pink noise generators, the SH-5 has everything you need to create a wide range of sounds. The oscillators can be modulated by the LFOs or the ADSR envelope generator, giving you extensive control over your sound design. The two LFOs include adjustable rate and waveshape settings, with options for ramp, reverse ramp, triangle, sine, square, and delay, plus a Sample + Hold feature for added versatility.The dual multi-mode filters are a highlight, offering high-pass, low-pass, and band-pass filtering with controls for cutoff, resonance, keyboard tracking, envelope sensitivity, and modulation. An additional band-pass-only filter expands the sonic possibilities even further. The two VCAs provide Attack/Release and ADSR envelopes, which can be triggered by the Sample + Hold, LFO #2, or an external audio trigger input.The SH-5's mixer section allows you to adjust the levels of noise, VCO1, VCO2, ring mod, and external signals independently, and each of these signals can be routed through the VCA, multi-mode filter, band-pass filter, or both. The synthesizer also features stereo output with panning controls, portamento, and a ring modulator that adds even more depth to its sound-shaping capabilities.Built around massive analog oscillators and robust multi-mode filters, the SH-5 delivers punchy, powerful bass, monstrous leads, and wild effects. Its sound is often compared to the highly sought-after System 100/700 modular units, but with a unique character all its own. The SH-5’s filters are particularly notable for retaining bass even when the resonance is cranked, unlike the SH-7. The resonant bandpass filter, used in parallel, produces stunning results, making this synth a powerhouse for creating serious electronic and dance music.This particular SH-5 is in exceptionally clean condition and is fully functional, a rare find for a synthesizer of this age. It includes the original manual and cover, making it a complete and valuable addition to any collection.At Tone House, we're not just sellers, we're passionate musicians, gear aficionados, and seasoned professionals dedicated to the craft of making music.
