Roland GAIA 2
CurrentReleased 2024
A 37-key hands-on synthesiser that combines a wavetable oscillator with two virtual analogue oscillators per voice, with knobs and sliders for most functions. It has a 64-step sequencer, a motional pad and an SH-101 Model Expansion pre-installed. It suits players who want a modern, knob-per-function polysynth for sound design without menu diving.
