Roland SH32 Synthesizer Customer Review
Sound
This is my first ever hardware synth. I have been using high powered software for several years - Reason, Reaktor, Tassman, Absynth, etc. -so I cannot compare it to much more expensive units, but at the price I paid for it, $200, I feel like I am getting away with something. If your first impression of this unit is via headphones, you will be a bit let down, as I think they cut some corners there to keep the price so low, but as soon as you plug it into a better amplifier and speakers, that
Features
There is nothing here I would demand, again, at the low price. I think you get much more than what you pay for.
Quality
It seems very well built, and I have no reason to assume that it should not work as designed. The appearance of it either looks a bit retro, or a bit dated, depending on your point of view. The knobs all seem decently robust, and the sliders feel a bit thin and fragile, but nothing feels like it will break off in your fingers. Again, at $200, well above par.
Value
$200? Game over...
The Wow Factor
Not really concerned about the looks at this price. And in all honesty, the look at any price...
