Gaia + Jupiter 8 + JP6 + SR18 "Supersaw Highway"


YouTube Published on Apr 12, 2012 by synthartist69

"Here is my brief take on the Roland Gaia SH-01.

Pros: It has some really good sounds, particularly bass and leads. It has a great arpeggiator.

Cons" Only 37 Keys!!! Why why why???? The layout is horrible. It's a royal pain to navigate in real time! It's a pain to sync to a drum machine.

Overall: Roland is onto something here. If the next Gaia had a cooler name, 61 Keys, and a layout similar to the Jupiter 8 or the Jupiter 6 then this could be a really great synth. I not only love the sound of the early Jupiters, I love the simple layout as well. They are so easy to quickly navigate. Will Roland listen to what I am saying....probably not :("
