Roland Gaia SH-01 Synthesizer

In this Instagram posted by Martin Garrix in July 2016, his Roland Gaia SH-01 Synthesizer can be seen at the center of his studio setup. Its central placement could indicate Garrix uses the keyboard on the Gaia as a MIDI controller to control other hardware and software synths.

When asked about his Roland Gaia in [this interview](http://www.roland.co.uk/blog/graham-coxon-interview/), Graham says, "We use that live too. It does everything. I don’t know much about synths but I was looking at that one closely so it was great that Lucy in my band got it. That’s our synth!"

Roland GAIA SH-01 Synthesizer Roland Gaia - successor of SH-201, comes with 20+ waveforms and has 3 oscillators per voice. It’s basically a 37-note virtual analogue subtractive synthesizer aimed at the mid-market. Roland has resurrected naming of their synts in accordance with the antic world. Gaia is a name that is taken from the same surrounding of the old antic world. Huge sound with three virtual analog engines onboard, each with a dedicated oscillator, filter, amplifier, envelope, and LFO Layer up to five simultaneous effects, including distortion, flanger, delay, reverb, low boost, and more 64-voice polyphony for massive sounds without note drop-out Fun, hands-on control panel thats great for instant gratification, and for learning synthesis Lightweight, compact body with 37 full-size keys Runs on AC or battery power for portable convenience 37 keys (velocity sensitive) Maximum Polyphony-64 voices Virtual analog synthesizer sound generator-(Oscillator + Filter + Amp + Envelopes + LFO) x 3 Oscillator waveform-SAW, SQUARE, PULSE/PWM, TRIANGLE, SINE, NOISE, SUPER SAW Envelope-Attack, Decay, Envelope Depth Modulation-Oscillator Sync, Ring Modulation (Tone 2's OSC 2 is applied as modulation to Tone 1's OSC 1.)

Used in his 2017 tour.

Kevin is seen using the gaia live, at every show, but rarely playing it, I think he runs his bass through it to use the synth filters and effects, like an effect pedal, when not using it as a keyboard...

The picture shown has this keyboard.

Item in the Se.Ra.Phic's Studio

The keyboard is clearly seen

"The SH-01 is definitely a staple of the setup with Conspirator. We do all of the pre-production in advance in the studio, and then we remove from the computer mix what we can physically play: lead lines, bass lines, and all the drums. KJ Sawka, our drummer, plays a real drum kit, but he uses Roland drum triggers to trigger the actual drum sounds that we used to create the music. Things that stay in the mix are fast arpeggiators, sound effects, risers, downlifters, wind noises, some wobble basses, and extra lead lines to just beef up the sound."
