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.

-So its got knobs, its analogue, and its white!
Thanks to gearslutz and harmony-central forum members for spotting the page.

Roland SP-808ex Synth Engine Demo/Overview Video
March 3, 2010 on 3:02 pm | In Roland, Tutorials, Videos |This is an overview of the SP-808ex synth fx engine where I play a few patches and talk about the synthesizer editing capabilities. I think the synth engine itself sounds very good and can add a special touch to your mix even when its only monosynth. When you are using the synth engine, make sure you have your midi controller set to ch. 11 and that effects are turned on. If the patch uses the d-beam, then turn on the appropriate button near the d-beam. Press FX INFO or Shift-FX Info to get into the editing features, and use the appropriate knobs for live tweaking.
The SP-808ex has something for everybody. Check out my tutorial on using its vocoder.
SP-808 Vocoder Tutorial
March 3, 2010 on 12:21 pm | In Roland, Tutorials, Videos |This machine is not always immediate without a manual, but you can get good results. The Vocoder is one of those things that you need to know how to set up. Make sure you don’t have anything connected to input “L” !!! Unplug it (unless your using an externally preamped MIC)
This is not a demonstration of its capabilities, just a tutorial.
