Architecture
[edit]The SH-01 Gaia is a follow-up to the popular SH-201. The lightweight unit is designed with a simple layout and no menu so you can adjust the sound parameters in real time. It has a USB interface so it can be easily connected to a computer for sequencing.
D Beam controller for sound manipulation. There is also a Phrase Recorder on board. The D-Beam can be controlled in real time by placing your hand over a sensor on the keyboard to control, and affects the pitch volume and can also be assigned to control another parameter for each patch.
Effects
[edit]Effects are stackable and can be combined for up to five effects to be used at the same time.[5]
Power
[edit]The unit runs on AC power or batteries for portable use.[6]
