Roland SH-09

Monophonic analogue synthesizer with one VCO and sub-oscillator, -24 dB/octave low-pass filter with external signal processing, ADSR envelope and LFO.

Synthesis

Oscillators (VCO)
  • Range: 32'/16'/8'/4'/2', waveform: saw, square, noise and pulse with PWM
  • PW modulation: manual, envelope, LFO
  • Sub-oscillator: square -1 oct., square -2 oct., pulse -2 oct.
Filter (VCF)
  • Resonant/self-oscillating low-pass VCF, cutoff frequency: 10 Hz .. 10 KHz
  • Modulation: envelope (inversible polarity), LFO
  • External input with envelope follower for VCF cutoff
Envelope
  • ADSR envelope
  • Range: A: 1 ms .. 2,5 s, D: 2 ms .. 10 s, S: 0 - 100 %, R: 2 ms .. 10 s
  • Mode: gate+trigger, gate, triggered by LFO
Amplifier (VCA)
  • Mode: hold, envelope, gate
LFO
  • Waveform: sine, square and random (sample and hold)
  • Rate: 0.2 .. 25 Hz, delay: 0 .. 1,5 s

Controls

  • Master tune
  • Portamento (time: 0 .. 5 s)
  • Auto-bend
  • 2,5-octave keyboard (32 keys)
  • Pitch bender, mod lever with VCO/VCF LFO depth control
