Roland synthesizers are renowned for their pioneering role in shaping electronic music, known for their innovative designs and iconic sounds. Since the introduction of the Roland SH-1000 in 1973, the company has consistently pushed boundaries in synthesizer technology. Legendary models like the Jupiter-8, Juno-60, and TB-303 helped define the sound of genres such as synth-pop, house, and techno. The TB-303, in particular, became the backbone of acid house, with its distinctive squelchy basslines. Roland’s early synthesizers were known for their warm analogue tones and intuitive interfaces, which have cemented them as favourites among musicians and producers worldwide.
In more recent years, Roland has continued its legacy with the introduction of digital and hybrid synthesizers, such as the versatile JD-XA and the System-8, which incorporates the company’s powerful ACB (Analog Circuit Behavior) technology. This innovation allows modern Roland synths to faithfully recreate the sound and behaviour of their vintage counterparts while offering new features and capabilities. The company’s synthesisers are highly respected for their quality, reliability, and versatility, making them a staple in studios and live performances alike. Whether producing lush pads, punchy basses, or evolving soundscapes, Roland synths have been at the forefront of electronic music for decades.
