Roland SH-101 Synthesizer

He is NOT using an SH101 as described here. He is using a synth that was made specifically ONLY for him with the name sh101, since it implements similar controls to the SH101

'The SH-101 didn't survive the surgeon's screwdriver: "It doesn't look like a 101 anymore – I use the sliders, but for different things."'

This is a video of The Glove, Robert's side project with bassist Steve Severin of the Banshees. They can clearly be seen using a Roland SH-101 in this video. I don't know if it belongs to Smith, but he clearly must have used one at some point.

Dash Berlin shares a photo of his Roland SH-101 synth, and tweets "Hooking up a classic for the lead sound. "

"There's also a Roland SH-101 with inverted key colours. It has extra filters modded on, I used it on my NERD remix. If I ever want a real good saw sound, this is what I use. It’s fun to trigger it with a drum machine too.”

The SH-101 is listed in the inventory of Albarn's 13 Studio.

"In the studio we had a Roland SH-101."

On Boards Of Canada Wikia page it states that "BOC use the SH-101 extensively."

”A lot of big, maximalized electronic music now is kind of easy to make, and we were trying to find a different sound.”

Puth found a reason to pick up and play a 1988 Roland SH-101 keytar, noodling around on it like Herbie Hancock, losing himself in interludes and extended jam sessions with his tight four-piece band.

In the image on this post you can see Nicolas Jaar using the Roland SH-101.

"This is a RED SH101. 98% of you are gonna be like: So what? The rest of you are gonna be like "Holy shit!!""

At 1:07 into this video, the classic Roland SH-101 Synthesizer makes an appearance in Gesaffelstein's studio. It's evidenced by the VCO and SOURCE MIXER sections of the synth.

Roland SH-101 About: This piece was one of the essential live synths in 90's in Liam's setup. Later Liam replaced this silver baby to red Clavia Nord Lead in his setup. But you can still sometimes see this machine on top of the first synth rack on live setup. Specifications: Polyphony : Monophonic Oscillators : 1 VCO (Independent levels for Saw, Square / Pulse / PWM and Sub-Oscillator) LFO : Triangle, Square, Random and Noise Waveforms VCF : Resonant, Self-Oscillating LPF, Mod by EG, LFO anKYBD Tracking VCA : ADSR, Mod by EG or Gate Arpeg/Seq : Digital Sequencer up to 100 steps Record / Playback Arpeggiator Patterns : Up, Down, Up/Down Keyboard : 32 keys Control : CV / Gate Gear info: The Roland SH-101 is a monophonic bass synthesizer, featuring a 2 1/2 octave 32-note (F-C) keyboard in a light, plastic case. This synth was released in the era just after analog synths like the Moog, ARP, Sequential Circuits, etc. It's siblings include the SH1, SH2, SH3a, SH5, SH7 and SH09. Probably does not sound as FAT as a Moog or ARP. It was designed as a strap-on synth with an optional modulation attachment that stuck out like a guitar neck. It can run on batteries. The SH-101 was pre-MIDI, but it has CV (1 volt/octave cv) and gate inputs in the back. It's sound lies somewhere between the TB-303 and a Juno bass sound. It has a lot of simple but cool features. You can control the VCF, pitch, LFO or all from the pitch bender. It has a white noise generator, arpeggiator with up, down and up/down patterns and a simple real-time sequencer. The LFO offers random, sine, square or noise waveforms. And normal or auto portamento effects give you that elastic bass sound. There are external clock inputs for the sequencer and arpeggiator, CV/GATE inputs and outputs and a CV hold pedal. The SH-101 also features a very primitive arpeggiator and sequencer as well as portamento. There are also two exclusive versions available.. one is blue and one is red. Other artists that have been using this: Orbital, Future Sound of London, Überzone, The Prodigy, 808 State, The Grid, Cirrus, Eat Static, Jimmy Edgar, Apollo 440, Devo, Union Jack, Luke Vibert, Dirty Vegas, Josh Wink, the Crystal Method, Aphex Twin, Astral Projection, Les Rythmes Digitales, Sense Datum, Squarepusher, Sascha Konietzko of KMFDM/MDFMK, Freddy Fresh, Lab-4, Nitzer Ebb, the Chemical Brothers and many more. Liam: "We do a totally live bit on stage where we hook up the SH-101 to the 909 using the trigger input and have a little jamming session on stage. That's quite interesting!" Release date: 1983 Type: Analogue synthesizer Used: Used live in Funky Shit and Poison. (With this machine Liam usually played the Relase Yo' Delf - riff between Poison part1 and part2 in live gigs).

At 10:26 in the video. "I think this is an amazing synth. They're really cheap...well, comparatively...It's got one oscillator...and you can get millions of things out of it."

In this photo, you can see a Roland SH-101 (1st synth in the photo) in Dave Gahan's New York City studio where he works with Kurt Uenala.

"Its got a great fuzzy bleepy acidy sound with a lot of character. Sadly the sequencer and arpeggiator don't work anymore in mine so I got to get it repaired or get a new one or something."

This Electronic Musician article states that Murphy owns a Roland SH-101.

"The SH-101 is basically a bass synthesizer, but I use it a lot for effects."

In this photo, there is sh-101 in his studio.

Hey y'all. Been hard at work this year on the new record and pretty excited to show you whats been transpiring. Lets hang in #2k15.

at 1:54 you have a brief moment that light shines on the synth on the dashboard revealing it's design which turns out to be exactly like a Roland SH-101.

In this video Minilogue's setup, at 0:16, an SH-101 can be seen.

This is a Reddit post with a picture originally taken from cEvin's Facebook page. The picture includes two photos of Subconscious Studios, spliced together to look like a panorama photo. Featured in the photos is a Roland SH-101 synthesizer.

In [this interview](http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/code/6327653/joris-voorn-new-album-nobody-knows-interview), Joris mentions his use of a Roland SH-101, saying, "I decided to use a Roland 101 synthesizer to play the parts, which gave the track a very different but beautiful sound. It showed me how well you can combine classical melodies with electronic music."

"My little setup for the show tomorrow..."

The whole video is about how the SH-101 is used for the track "Roller"

In [this interview](http://www.thefader.com/2014/10/29/beat-construction-dj-quik) with Fader, Dj Quik talks about bass sounds and 808's "They're not even using the 808 drum machines, they're using the 808 samples that people have hodgepodged and put online. They want to keep it there because it sounds like the records that they hear on the radio. They think it's the definitive sound. It wasn't just that. It was the fucking DMX drum machine. If you think about songs like [Run DMC's] "Krush Groove"—that was one of the best drum sounds ever! It's not just about the 808. People get stuck because they like the speakers to vibrate. People get turned on, there's something sexual about it. It's like a vibrator. But you can make it sexual with a bassline, you can make it sexual with an SH-101, a Roland fucking synthesizer. You can make it emotive and erotic with flangers and stuff. People don't do the whole math when it comes to making music. You can do so many different things to one sound that it will become something totally new. "

At 7:56 the Roland SH-101 synthesizer is visible in this Mathew Jonson [presentation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16vS_bep3nI) done with Red Bull Music Academy.

"I love the Roland 101 and 303 for synths.."

When Rusko is asked by Twitter user @ProducerQandA, "What is your most used hardware synth as well as your most used software synth when you are producing?" Rusko replies, "hardware - SH101 bleeps and fx all day Roland style. Software - anything [rob papen](https://equipboard.com/brands/rob_papen) especially [predator](https://equipboard.com/items/rob-papen-predator) & albino :) :)" (as of 7 Feb 2012)

"The answer to that question is… yes and no. Ever since I got my first bits of kit - a Casio MT-65, an SH-101 and a Dr. Rhythm - songwriting has always been about melody."

At 0:20, Gavin says, "So basically the track its pretty much all SH-101's. Bass line Lead line, Sweeps all recorded in real time..."

Nick Taylor asks Ceephax in this [article from *Smart Shanghai*](http://www.smartshanghai.com/articles/nightlife/inside-the-dayglo-mind-of-ceephax-acid) “OK some nerdy gear questions. How much kit you bringing over to Shanghai? Is it not a huge pain in the arse to travel with all that stuff?” To which Ceephax replies “I'm bringing my flotilla of Roland hardware [TR-707](https://equipboard.com/items/roland-tr-707-rhythm-composer), [TR-909](https://equipboard.com/items/roland-tr-909-rhythm-composer), SH-101, [TB-303](https://equipboard.com/items/roland-tb-303), and my [Ensoniq SQ-80](https://equipboard.com/items/ensoniq-sq-80).”

In this article Bicep say: "We have (or borrow) Korg M1, Yamaha DX7, SH101, Juno 6, Roland midi keyboards, Akai MPC 2000xl and Mackie monitors."

Mentions it in the interview, as one of his hardware synths.

Alec Empire's Generation Star Wars album from 1994 is produced by himself and contains the following instrument list in both the album notes and the Bandcamp page: "Instruments used on this album: TR-808, Akai S-1100, SH-101, Boss Pitch Delay."

As much as she enjoys shiny new gear, Allien would be at a loss without her vintage synths. For Thrills, she employed her trusty Roland TR-808 drum machine and SH-101 analog synth along with Clavia Nord Lead and Nord Modular synths; a Midas mixer; Apple Logic Pro; and her prized piece, the ARP 2600. “Turning wheels and pressing buttons, all [my] instruments sound deep and dark in my ears,” she says. “The ARP is perfect for that! And the ARP 2600 is the last synth I've bought — I saw it in Japan first and bought it finally on eBay. But I was looking a long time for it.”

Excelent mono synth for basses and moody leads

He mentions the synths he has used to record in this tweet.

Visible at 0:23 in his live at MC2 Grenoble

“Lately I’ve been using this more for the sample/hold-style warbled blips. It’s fun to get a completely random and mangled mess sampled, and then loop a section to base an entire song on. "You can hear this in action at the end of my song Crimewaves, just before it goes into the little reprise at the end.”

At 0:21 Michael Stein from the band S U R V I V E talks about his Roland SH-101.

This item can be seen in this Instagram picture, uploaded by the artists themselves.

> I don’t mind if the SH101’s going straight into the Neve or if it’s going in via a guitar Pod or going direct into the soundcard. I don’t really mind — it’s whatever cable’s nearest. And then you stumble upon the area of chance, which is ‘Well, I wasn’t planning on plugging this synth into the guitar amp, but because the cable’s there I did it and it was miked up and I recorded it.

Suicide Commando / Johan lists his equipment on his official website - see link.

"The Roland SH-101 is another classic synth that I love. I sync it with Ableton using some Doepfer CV-to-MIDI connections or just play it live."

I try to keep the music as natural as I can, with as little editing or over-processing as possible. A lot of the melodic parts are all synth jams that I created using my Roland Juno-6, a Roland SH-101 and the Yamaha QY700 sequencer before I gradually started tracking into Ableton and putting percussive elements on top.

life is short, but all I wanna do is play with my new sh101 ????

I just played my first show a couple weeks ago. It’s actually my favorite NYC party called Mutual Dreaming, always good vibes. That was probably the only reason I agreed to play, and so I spent the week before learning the songs…again. My live set-up is exactly the same as my studio set-up, minus a couple keyboards: Roland SH-101 Roland TR-707 MFB 522 MFB Fliterbox EHX 2880 loop pedal EHX reverb pedal Casio SK-1 Yamaha DX100 MPC500 and a small mixer.

In the video in which Moonlight Matters is taking Future Music Magazine on a tour of his studio, at 1:08:57 he says "SH-101 is definitely a typical bass synth that always works, you can always get a useful sound out of it".

In the 3rd paragraph 6th line the sh 101 is mentioned as being used by this artist.

"It still sounds so good. For basically the first two years of Riva Starr productions, all the synth sounds and the bass came from this," Riva Starr says, in [this article](http://www.attackmagazine.com/features/interview/riva-starr-interview/).

In this live video you can clearly spot the SH-101. Particularly at 7:15 minutes

"It's just a matter of what you can get your hands on", Massey confirms. On Newbuild the group used almost exclusively Roland gear, with a TR808, TR909, TB303, four SH101s and a Juno 106 which sports a broken key and a note which sticks on every patch except patch 41.

Can be seen ontop of an MS20 in this Instagram post.

Included in kit list

*Beat Boy* was recorded at Trident Studio which has a Solid State Logic desk that is widely considered to be the best in the world. They are undoubtedly the most expensive, starting at around £150,000. Surprisingly hardly any electronic instruments were used on the LP, just a Fairlight CMI, Egan's MC202/SH101 sequencer combination, a Jupiter 8 and a Linn Drum.

In RA Sessions, Roland SH101 is used.

First Piece of Equipment. A grey SH-101 back in ´86…

«This one was offered to me by a promoter I became close with. It took me a while to get into it I must say – probably because I didn’t pick it personally, when I come to think of it – but once I did I became a bit obsessed with it. It can be CV linked with the rimshot of certain drum machines (like the 707 or 909) to play a pattern of notes you programmed into the synth. It’s so much fun to jam like that. That’s how I did the remix for Surkin and Bobmo’s ‘Harry’, live recorded in one take with just the original loop playing in the back, a bit of arrangement afterwards, but it was wrapped in just a couple of hours and I think you can totally feel it when you hear it, which is something I love. You’ll notice that I’m generally pretty fond of the Roland brand»

Uses in the studio

Roland SH-101 Synthesizer

Included in list of Stuart Kershaw's equipment published in a 1993 issue of *Future Music*.

You can see it under the table

"I bought Roland SH-101 at the age of 14."

In this picture, Liz and Sean are holding SH-101 synthesizers, with Liz holding the standard version and Sean holding a blue one.

> Classic analogue monosynth from the 80s, perfect when making some techno or acid. It doesn’t get more basic than this, which suits me perfect. I love using it together with some of the really good UAD plugins, such as delay, distortion and/or reverb. I can play around with the arpeggiator together with some nice portamento for hours. The sound coming out from this tiny machine is hard to beat.

As seen on the picture.

Tim uses a modified Roland SH-101 in his studio.

The SH-101 is a go-to synth for me – when I want a simple synth sound, this always gets me the results I want really quickly and the sound is so appealing.

"I’ve got a little Roland Tandi it’s like a little party, there’s an SH101" You can also view it in the image under the paragraph

"I still have a great love for the old SH09, its big Bro’ the SH2 and its progeny the SH101. But the Roland Juno 106 is still hard to beat. I do still have (hopefully) working examples of ’em all. Although primarily a vintage Roland fan, I do have the odd bit of Korg and Yamaha kit, and of course the wonderfully proletarian Casio VL Tone… required equipment in my League days, we all had one in our make up bags!"

The item can be seen in this photo

Clearly visible on the wall in this studio image, next to the Mono/Poly

in this photo we can see his sh-101..

“Apart from my acoustic record, there’s hardly a production or project that I haven’t used this for. I was lucky to get this in 2007 for £270 (less than the recent Roland Boutique SH-01A reissue). I’m not a hardware or analogue snob - some of my favourite music is all made from soft synths, and I use the TAL Bassline-101 plugin a lot, too. I’m more interested in whatever is inspiring to use, and have always advocated for good musical ideas outweighing gear collections - although, as much as I subscribe to that ideology, my financial situation has enforced it!”

at 20:38 you can see uwe's sh 101

"...The item can be seen 1:53 into this video..."

"Tonight I learned a lot about how even if your hired synths are a bit broken, making strange sounds and going out of tune erratically throughout the show, and you have a different keyboard to the regular one with different parameters - you can still have a SMASHER!!! The hype crowd in Belfast had a lot to do with it, and my sickass band mates, but also having the belief and mentality that you can overcome anything that comes your way, that you can turn negatives in positives, that every day is a new experience and every gig has its own character and charm. Thanks to the universe ????"
