The Sh*t Synth - Walkthrough video upload by CROW HILL XTRAS
Press release follows:
The Crow Hill Company turns to extensive and rare collection to turn out THE SH*T SYNTH as compendium of 48 circuit-, wave- and sample-bent instruments
EDINBURGH, UK: The Crow Hill Company is proud to turn to its own extensive and rare collection of hardware to turn out THE SH*T SYNTH — available as a compendium of 48 circuit-, wave- and sample-bent instruments inspired by some of the Edinburgh-based enterprise’s eclectic musical favourites (spanning the likes of Aphex Twin, Boards Of Canada, Joe Maus, Jon Brion, Laurie Spiegel, Radiohead, Throbbing Gristle, and Yazoo) to create something that they collectively ask: is it just shit or ‘the shit’? — as of April 7…
Whatever way anyone chooses to read into the titling of THE SH*T SYNTH as the latest entry into The Crow Hill’s ongoing ORIGINS series of sample-based virtual instrument plug-ins, one thing is for sure: it readily represents a broad selection of three categories of 16 workhorse instruments each, effectively wrapped up into a single plug-in designed to bring a cohesive approach to making music more edgy, lo-fi, retro, and — swimming against the technological tide of so-called progress — decidedly AI (Artificial Intelligence) slop-free. From pianos to strings, plucks, beeps, bass, and pads, the compendium that is THE SH*T SYNTH has been lovingly sculpted by the Edinburgh-based enterprise’s media composer and ‘samplist-in-residence’ Christian Henson to take the hassle out of making existing sounds less refined, catering to those looking for an entirely new bank of Mellotron-style sounds as well as synths that have been long forgotten — for good reason, too!

"This collection of vintage synthesizers has grown with me for years. Most all of these instruments have been used on many projects, including VeggieTales, a variety of remixes, and many PlayStation video games and marketing and promotional discs. Most recently they were used on the Mass Effect Andromeda video games soundtrack. They have also been sampled and are part of the SoundVault Collection and the Kurzweil Analog Collection for the K2000 series samplers. VEMIA note: to forestall many inquiries, The seller’s idea is that he wants to sell it as a whole. That may or may not work out in this auction. If it doesn’t, obviously he’ll be free to do whatever he wants after the auction finishes.
It all works. Everything has been kept in a clean, smoke-free, climate-controlled studio. I have always fixed things myself, so everything is operational and sounding great. I have repair notes on the synths that received attention, though most of them have worked great over the years, without much need for repairs. There are also several MIDI to CV converters so they can all be controlled by computer, plus cables if desired. And a few have cases and manuals.

"Hi,
I had the pleasure to test the Donner Essential L1, a very powerful monophonic analog synthesizer quite similar to the Roland SH-101. I made some sounds, sequences and synth sketches. I used Valhalla Massive as delay and reverb.
Enjoy the music !
Bernd"
"In our first highway video from India, we explore a portion of National Expressway 2, also known as the Eastern Peripheral Expressway. This 6-lane freeway runs as an outer belt around the Delhi metropolitan area. We cover the segment starting in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, running north to its interchange with the Delhi-Meerut Expressway (NE3). Along the way we cross several other highways connecting Delhi and various towns and cities in U.P., including National Highways 9 and 334C.

I’m beyond excited to introduce you my "No talking demo" of the Donner Essential L1 — a fully analog, monophonic subtractive synthesizer inspired by the legendary Roland SH-101.
In this video, you’ll hear the raw sound of the instrument with no voiceover and no unnecessary processing — just pure analog tones, basslines, sequences, leads and textures created directly from the synth.
A few of these have been featured on the site before. You can use the player controls to skip around.
Playlist:
1. EMS Synthi with Universal Sequencer and RSF Kobol #emssynthi #rsfkobol #rolandph830
It’s a tune done on the Synthi and EMS Universal Sequencer with some help from RSF Kobol processed by Roland PH-830 phaser.
2. 2 x EMS Universal Sequencer with Roland MC-202 #emssynthi #emsuniversalsequencer #mc202
Universal Sequencer is playing a sequence on the Synthi and the 202 - that’s why it’s called “universal” as both sequence and real time layers have CV/gate outputs. No effects other than spring reverb on the Synthi.
"Welcome to RetroSound Studio Tour: Analog Monophonic Synthesizers & Duophonic — a deep dive into legendary mono synths from the 1970s and 1980s, including rare East-Bloc classics.
In this new episode, I showcase iconic instruments such as the Minimoog, ARP Odyssey, Roland SH-101, Maxi-Korg, Sequential Circuits Pro-One, alongside Soviet and East German synthesizers like the Polivoks, Alisa 1377 and Vermona mono synths.
These analog monophonic synthesizers defined the sound of electronic music — from the fat Moog and cutting ARP to aggressive Polivoks and raw Eastern European character.
This video explores the sound and architecture of true analog mono synths built around VCO, VCF, and VCA signal paths, highlighting their distinctive basslines, lead sounds, and modulation capabilities. From the Moog basslines to the aggressive Polivoks filter sound and the unique character of East German Vermona synthesizers, each instrument demonstrates why 1970s and 1980s monophonic synthesizers remain highly sought after by collectors, producers, and electronic music enthusiasts."

Press release follows:
Cherry Audio has announced SH-MAX, an innovative software synthesizer that integrates three legendary SH-series synths from the '70s: the SH-5, SH-7, and SH-3A.
Cherry Audio has announced the launch of SH-MAX, an innovative software synthesizer that integrates three legendary SH-series synthesizers from the 1970s: the SH-5, SH-7, and SH-3A. SH-MAX captures the bold sound of the SH-5 while incorporating features and aesthetics from the other models, enhancing the original designs with greater power, versatility, and essential tools for modern music production. Musicians and vintage synth enthusiasts can start using SH-MAX today for the incredibly low price of just $59, available at cherryaudio.com and authorized resellers worldwide.
SH-MAX faithfully recreates the vibrant tones and workflow of the original SH hardware. It features powerful dual oscillators, two LFOs and ADSR envelopes, the dual-parallel multimode and bandpass filter sections, and the five-channel mixer of the SH-5 (1976), plus a ring modulator and sample/hold capability. Also included are autobend, duophony, filter FM, and the syncable VCOs with additional waveforms found in the SH-7 (1978). The extra additive-style oscillator from the SH-3A (1975) further enhances sound design flexibility. Moreover, SH-MAX incorporates and expands upon the expressive touch performance of the SH-2000 (1973) and features an onboard sequencer inspired by the Model 104 of the legendary System 100 semi-modular synthesizer from 1975.
SH-MAX honors its lineage while taking full advantage of modern software capabilities, supporting mono, duophonic, and 16-voice polyphonic operation for rich chords as well as earthshaking unison timbres. It features three unique retro interface themes that pay homage to the aesthetic of the SH-3A, SH-5, and SH-7, providing a visually immersive experience for true vintage synth enthusiasts. Additionally, optional drift and slop controls for the oscillators, filters, amp, and dual envelope generators introduce authentic analog character and warmth to every sound patch.
The highly flexible SH-style stereo mixer and its varied workflow options allow for modular-style signal routing. Each sound source -- VCO-1, VCO-2A, VCO-2B, the ring modulator, and noise -- can be independently routed to the VCF, BPF, or VCA, with each path enhanced with its own chain of studio-quality effects. With 20 effects available to arrange and reuse within its four chains, SH-MAX provides an exceptionally wide sonic palette. Additional features include a four-channel step sequencer capable of parallel playback or extended chaining, along with a touch effects panel that supports channel and polyphonic aftertouch with compatible MIDI controllers.
SH-MAX's legacy traces back to over five decades of synthesizer and electronic music innovation. The SH-series synthesizers have been used by a diverse range of artists, including Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, Brian Eno, Gary Numan, Throbbing Gristle, Skinny Puppy, Aphex Twin, Orbital, Mathew Jonson, Pink Floyd, Nine Inch Nails, Kitaro, MGMT, Vangelis, The Human League, Blondie, Yello, and more.
With SH-MAX, users can create everything from massive leads and thick basses to lush pads and exceptional sound effects, making it a true synthesis powerhouse at their fingertips. To inspire musicians right out of the box, SH-MAX includes over 300 expertly crafted presets that showcase its broad capabilities. For those wanting even more, the Maximum Overdrive Preset Pack by sound designer James Dyson is available from Cherry Audio for $9.99, offering 100 additional presets that highlight SH-MAX's raw analog tone, advanced modulation, four-channel step sequencer, and abundant effects.
Furthermore, until February 22nd, customers can take advantage of Cherry Audio's "Build Your Own Bundle" promotion at cherryaudio.com. Choose the Pick 3 bundle for $99 (regularly $129) or the Pick 6 bundle for $149 (regularly $169) to mix and match any of Cherry Audio's award-winning instruments for as low as $25 per plugin.
Cherry Audio's SH-MAX synthesizer is now available for $59 at cherryaudio.com and authorized resellers worldwide. SH-MAX is a virtual instrument for macOS (10.13 and later) and Windows (7 and later), provided as AU, VST, VST3, and AAX plugins, as well as a standalone application. A free 30-day demo is available.

"12/14/25 Roland SVC-350 Vocoder (for sale) & SH-101 + Shure SM58 + Peavey 1300 & DDL-3 + Alesis MIDIVERB II
'Hello, buy my vocoder—now, now, now! Please.'
Those are the lyrics. We are listing the SVC-350 Vocoder and the SPV-355 pitch to voltage synthesizer in this video on reverb.com at Christopher’s Boutique 489."
"This listing is for two rare rack units by Roland that will let you turn your voice into robots, aliens, or just plain old voltages: the SVC-350 Vocoder and the SPV-355 Pitch to Voltage Synthesizer. The video in the photos section of this listing is of the actual unit.
The SPV-355 allows you to take audio and convert it into pitch voltages, envelopes, and gates to use on other equipment. It’s also a nice two-VCO synthesizer itself, with filter and envelope controls.
The SVC-350 is a coveted Vocoder, allowing you to connect synthesizers, drum machines, guitars and, of course, a microphone, and get either a fully wet vocoded version or a blend of the dry and wet.
Both work well, but both are old. This means you need to use them regularly or they can develop a little bit of scratch when turning the knobs.

"A wonderful Roland sh7 , the last in it’s range and also the flagship off all sh series , with 3 OSC’s and 24db 4 pole filter It’s sojnd really fat and powerful , great condition"
"A special early synth from Roland in overall great functional condition, with two exceptions note below. Cosmetically the control panel and keyboard area are in nice shape, but the case is pretty beat up, with bad latches, missing metal piping on one side, bent piping on the other side, and a missing power cord door. According to the previous owner, this unit actually went out on tour with a pop band in the 70's, and it shows. As you probably know, the SH-3 gave way to the more common SH-3A, with the most noticeable change being the switch from the SH-3's diode ladder filter to the the SH-3A's transistor ladder filter.
I've thoroughly tested all functions, pots, sliders, and jacks and here are the two functional issues I've observed:
The output and headphone jacks are scratchy and presumably need to be cleaned. It's easy to get an output cable or headphones seated and working, however you may have to twist the plugs in the jacks or reinsert them to get a good contact. There is some bleed-through from the square/sine LFO that's present in the audio path, most noticeable at quieter volumes or at higher registers. It's not difficult to set up a sound where the bleed-through is either not noticeable or barely noticeable, particularly with everything running loud and with lower waveforms engaged. I have access to another SH-3 that has the same problem (but worse), so I suspect this may be a problem that Roland engineered out of later the SH-3A circuitry, but I can't be sure. Regardless, this is something you may want to attend to at some point should you find it bothersome. In addition, the 8' "chorus" setting on this and the other SH-3 I've played is noticeably more intense than the SH-3A's I've played, so I suspect this is another feature that Roland tweaked when shifting to the SH-3A circuits.
I recently put $730 into having the synth partially serviced by a noted synth tech, which included:
Fixing an issue whereby the waveform sliders were interacting with each other and significant bleed-through of some waveforms was present. Cleaning the keyboard and eliminating some squirrely notes and double triggering that had been present. Replacing some capacitors. Better securing base of the power cable. Cleaning a scratchy sider. So in selling this I'm mostly trying to break-even on those repairs, plus make a little to cover Reverb's fees."

1. Roland S-1 | Synth Sound Design Basics Tutorial | Master the S-1: Ep. 1
This is the first video in my series on mastering the Roland S-1. In this episode, I cover the essential sound design features of this powerful little synth. Future videos will dive into advanced sound design, creative jamming techniques, sequencer tricks, and anything else you’d like to see.
2. Roland S-1 | Advanced Sound Design Tutorial | Master the S-1: Ep. 2
The S-1 has a hidden super power: Custom Waveforms. Using the oscillator draw function you can input your own custom waveforms to create new sounds you wouldn't expect from a mini-SH-101 clone. I have a few that I use all the time and I wanted to share them with you. I hope you enjoy!
3. Roland S-1 | Sequencing Tutorial | Master the S-1: Ep. 3
The Roland S-1 sequencer isn't the most advanced, but it offers a surprising amount of utility for its small size. For me, the S-1's sequencer is a quick and effective way to capture ideas and jam, in ways that even more advanced synths and grooveboxes don't always inspire. I get a lot of enjoyment from punching in patterns on the S-1 and using the tips and tricks I show in this video to create tracks and explore new ideas through jamming.

4. Roland S-1 | Voice Modes Tutorial (Poly, Chord, Unison, Mono) | Master the S-1: Ep. 4
The Roland S-1 has four voice modes which can be used for different sound design purposes. I received a lot of requests to make a video on the chord mode functionality, so I figured I would expand it out and cover all of the different S-1 Voice Modes. I'll dive into each one mode and give some ideas for how to use them, with emphasis on chord mode. Let me know if you have any questions!
