Look at it in 3d! Its kind of fat/cool. Check out more of the product Specs

Some people were saying it was real analog, but it appears to be Virtual.

Triple-Fat Virtual Analog

Sink your teeth into the new triple-stacked virtual analog engine, comprising three complete synths for incredibly thick, powerful sound. Unleash the beef of three oscillators that drive a trio of multimode, resonant filters, multi-shape LFOs, and amplifiers, plus nine envelope generators. It’s like having three synthesizers in one! With 64 polyphonic voices onboard, the GAIA SH-01 makes it possible to play massive sounds without experiencing note drop-out.

Very portable (10lb) w/ a phrase recorder. Allows 3 different tones layered onto itself.

UPDATE:

AsiaGeoff on Twitter says “New Roland Gaia sounds fab. Encrusted with lots of knobs, it’s an analogue beast of immense potential. Only small, but sleek white & cool.” Link

-So its got knobs, its analogue, and its white!

Thanks to gearslutz and harmony-central forum members for spotting the page.


Update:

eXo2 NEW from Blue Sky

EXO2_1_WEB.jpg

….the EXO sub has been greatly reduced in size. The original EXO sub was approximately a 14” cube, the new SUB is much smaller (10”H x 9”W x 11”D) and yet still has much the same performance of the original EXO system.
