Unleash the boundless realm of musical creation with the Roland GAIA 2 Synthesizer, a powerhouse of sonic exploration that beckons you into the uncharted territories of soundscapes. Armed with a dynamic hybrid engine, this synth seamlessly blends wavetable and virtual analogue synthesis, making it a perfect playground for both beginners and seasoned sound designers. The intuitive panel layout ensures a smooth learning curve, guiding you effortlessly from the basics to creating unique, mind-bending sounds.
In the heart of this beast lies a newly developed hybrid sound engine featuring one wavetable oscillator and two virtual analogue oscillators. With three operating modes—Chorus, Vibrato, and the innovative Blend mode—you can tweak and mould your sound to perfection. The GAIA 2 Synthesizer offers the freedom of freely assignable modulation routings, enabling rapid sound creation that suits your style.
Not only that, but the Motional Pad and sequencer give you the power to generate complex sounds and dynamic phrases, providing a hands-on approach to sculpting your sonic masterpieces. With an attractive aluminium panel adorned with high-quality knobs and sliders, this synth is as aesthetically pleasing as it is musically inspiring.
Key Features:
Colossal Sound Engine - GAIA 2's innovative sound engine offers an endless array of tones. Craft vintage-inspired sounds or push the boundaries with unique modulation tools for cutting-edge textures. Dial up the Drive for added grit. From retro warmth to futuristic tones, GAIA 2 does it all.
Versatile Performance - The GAIA 2 consists of 3 oscillators, The first is the Oscillator 1, GAIA 2's wavetable oscillator offers a variety of waveforms for dynamic shifts and textures. Morph between them for exciting results. With Oscillators 2 and 3, emulate classics or craft new voices with GAIA 2's twin virtual analogue oscillators. Authenticity meets innovation as you shape the sound of the past or future with ease.
Intuitive Control - The intuitive workflow of GAIA 2 ensures speedy, enjoyable sound crafting. Its straightforward panel layout, with each control dedicated to a specific function, allows instant programming, eliminating the need for tedious menu navigation. The sleek design, featuring streamlined knobs and a white anodised aluminium panel, not only enhances functionality but also exudes inspiration. The visual allure is further magnified when it glows under the vibrant ambience of stage lighting. Just wait until you witness its stunning presence on stage.
Immersive Display - Placed prominently at the forefront, the informative display showcases both the output audio waveform and the recorded movement path of the Motional Pad. A quick glance provides immediate insight into the intricate workings of even the most complex sounds.
Expand Your Sound - GAIA 2 seamlessly integrates Roland Model Expansions, faithfully resurrecting timeless synthesizers from our extensive legacy. Effortlessly switch between the internal sound engine and legendary synths like the SH-101,* JUPITER-8, or JUNO-106 using a dedicated button. These Model Expansions perfectly align with GAIA 2's workflow, enabling you to reinterpret vintage sounds using the intuitive panel controls and craft fresh musical compositions using the sequencer. (*The SH-101 Model Expansion comes installed from the factory. Additional Model Expansion titles are available for purchase on Roland Cloud.)
Enhanced Modulation - In contemporary sound design, ample and versatile modulation is crucial. GAIA 2 excels in this domain, allowing you to swiftly and seamlessly construct intricate modulation pathways. Assigning up to four parameters to each of the two LFOs is a breeze, and these LFOs offer a range of classic and modern wave shapes, including step modulation. This effortless parameter assignment process enables you to effortlessly translate your creative concepts into tangible sounds almost instantly.
