  • Mathew Jonson is one of techno’s most distinct artists and live performers, and a pro when it comes to synthesizers, and here explores the Roland SH-101 as part of a brand new series on Telekom Electronic Beats TV. One of the most iconic synthesizers ever, Jonson’s experience with this Roland classic dates back to the mid-‘90s, and he ventures into its programming possibilities in the second part of our SH-101 exploration.

    The very best demo ever of the SH101. Roland should have employed this guy and then watched their sales rocket! He has inspired me to deep dive into my Gaia SH01!

    I like how at 3:07 he just says "I'll line this up with the LFO" and then locks the LFO to tempo by hand with that tiny slider... you can tell the guy has spent a lot of time doing the same thing on turntables :)

    Loved it, thanks Mathew and TEB for these series. Really shows that side of the nuances in simple analog synths that are often thought as "too simple and boring" or "one trick ponies" proving otherwise. Inspires me to spend more time on my gear until I know it inside out (here I come MC-202). We need more of these!

  • @schance1666

    My first synth ever was the MC-202 (the 'brainy' version of the SH101), which was stolen. These two are the best synths ever for learning synthesis in my opinion. Got a SH101 and use it all the time, despite having 12 other "more advanced" synths on hand. And yet, after all these years with it, I STILL learned a lot from your video!!! Thanks for doing these.

    Whoa - so using an external clock trigger disconnects the sequencer tempo from the LFO rate! Of course! I’ve had mine for over 30 years and never tried that as I had no other kit to trigger it with. Or so I thought - what’s this Boss DR220 doing on a shelf? Cool!

    • @miguelhijarmusic
      @miguelhijarmusic 3 года назад

      Hard decision …the out of tune harmonica on the SH-101 give it a warmth that you don’t really get on the MS-1. I also prefer the noise generator on the SH-101. That being said I love my MS-1 and would not be able to justify buying a marked up SH-101. I know Behringer has a bad reputation, but the MS-1 is seriously one of my favorite synths rn. Throw some chorus on it and it sounds even better.
      …but if you already have the SH-101…¯\_(ツ)_/¯
