"The Roland SH-7 is a rare and highly sought-after duophonic analog synthesizer, produced between 1978 and 1981. As one of the rarest models in the Roland SH series, the SH-7 offers a wealth of creative control and sound design possibilities. It features two oscillators, one LFO, a 12db/octave low-pass and high-pass filter, two ADSR envelopes, a ring modulator, a noise generator, and 44 keys, along with CV and Gate functionality for seamless integration with other analog gear.What sets the SH-7 apart from other SH models is its expanded feature set, including syncable VCOs, an external audio input, additional waveform shapes, and both white and pink noise generators with sample and hold. The mixer section allows for distortion of audio signals, making it ideal for crafting brash techno sounds. Despite its power and flexibility, the SH-7 is user-friendly, offering the standard SH sound with added depth and tweakability.
In terms of design, the SH-7 is considered one of the most beautiful and unusual vintage synthesizers Roland has ever built, with a layout that surpasses traditional synth modules. It excels in dynamic solos, bass, lead, and effect sounds, and has even been used by legendary bands like INXS.
This synthesizer is in very good condition, showing only light wear on the face panel. One original key has been repaired after a crack, which is shown in the pictures. The unit comes with the original manual, making it a complete and functional piece of vintage analog history."
