Get one !!!!

Had this now for 3 weeks and have to say that my A soundbank is practically full already with new sounds. It is so easy to tweak and twist new sounds and i still like the overall sound of the unit.

Live with the limitations or like in my case exploit them and come up with unique sounds. I'm sure that when you put in the effort only a 'real' expert can do the blindfold test when comparing similar sounds on different machines.

Again for the price Roland is selling these now you can't and shouldn't complain(IHO).

happy blips

If you don't like it, you don't have to use it, you know... And furthermore, you can't force people to stop liking it, so if that's all you're interested in doing, please get lost, for the sake of this thread.

Anyway, I liked the sounds of the SH-32 quite a lot. There's a lot of usable sounds on it, and there's several unusable sounds on it, but overall, for $200, you will find precisely nothing better. The 808/909 soundbanks are enough to keep me hungry for more, let alone the powerful synth engine that creates anything from your standard fare vintage sounds to the latest techno sounds. It caters to a wide audience, and while it has its downers (like the audible "zip" when doing filter sweeps), you'll be able to find a ton of great things to do with this synth. If you can't see past those minor flaws, then I pity you, because you're missing out on a great synth.

Of course, that's my opinion, and we all know what those are worth...
