If your not into soft/synths and tired of looking at the computer try this unit out. Nothing else like it for the price. Hands on fun. Takes a while to learn but not that much work. This is a great unit for the price they are going for on e-bay these days. Not your only synth but a good addition. Love the Arp.

I picked it up used for $300. Lots of usable sound for the money. Great for midrange sounds with lots of movement...leaves my (scarce) VCO's to do the heavy lifing in the bottom and top ends.
As all synths there are stregnths and weaknesses. Play to the strengths of the sh-32 and you will be very happy. It has a sound all it's own...one that I am quite happy with.
It's solid enough to gig with, and my really expensive stuff stays in the studio...safe and sound.
I Guess it's like a scooter...fun to ride until someone actually sees you on it.
Does it misbehave when pushed to it's limits...yes, but so does my K2500.

I am gonna laff my ass off at all you snivelers when some DJ like oakenfold or willam orbit comes out with a #1 song that has crappy steppy filtering .And all of you fools are gonna rave about how cool zippy steppy filters are .Just cant live with out it .bla bla blaaaa blaa. Program past the problem dont be so narrow minded.For the money this little box is great.Dont any of you try before you buy I think most of you people buy shit just cause someone els has it or you wana be cool .When I buy new gear I ask for the manual read over it and spend time playing to see if it meets my needs .Every instrument is what it is .A rose is a rose is a rose.

i find it strange that so MANY people are fussing about the fact that the filters step,isnt there a filter off mode,YES there is ,do you own other synhts with ext.in or even better!!,are there any analog filters out there??,well plug it in on your sh32 for a better sounding,more analog,without the stepping problem!!!! hey this way it doesnt sound cheap at all,it could even sound like a vintage roland!!so basicly its good that the filters suck,so you can add it yourself !!!guess nobody thought of this before, as i read most reviews are puttting the sh 32 down ,if it doesnt meet ur demands,TRY to use ur brain to overcome the problem,there isnt a synth out there that WILL meet EVERYBODYS!!demands.

I think this synth is pretty good for the price the only gripe i have is with the filter the stepping is a bit stupid , apart from that its fine given the price range its in it has a reasonably good spec, it sounds fine for most things, and does not seem limited in Timbre, and in many ways reminds me of my Sh 101 (when it was working), the key follow is good and helps over come the stepping problem in terms of playability, the Lfos are good also and they use the filter well with out stepping, I think that this is a good value for money synth ,although slightly stretched interms of how much it packs in terms of effects spec, the distortion rocks ,and its dam easy to program. There are some things it doesn't do, but for the most part it doesn't give you the impression that it will do those things, its no novation but then no novation is an Sh32, thats all I have to say, although I think its important to give a fair review, so if this synth upsets you too much I suggest that you go and see a counsellor and work through your affliction properly rather than compensating by buying an impressive synth, because this is neither the problem or the solution to your psychalogical needs.
