SH 3acid workout


Published on Jun 9, 2016 Unun Septium

"I keep coming across these 'expert' opinions telling me that the Roland SH-3a doesn't really make a very good bass synth. Well, I suppose it depends what kind of bass you're after.

If you ever hear this myth being perpetuated, just remember these two words: Distortion pedal. It was good enough for the TB-303.

This little workout uses the valve distortion of a Digitech BP8 (hence the noise). Since the SH-3a doesn't have CV and Gate, I'm not using a sequencer here, it's just the Sample & Hold and the LFOs generating that annoyingly repetitive pattern."
