ROLAND SPV-355 P/V SYNTH - near mint!

A Roland SPV-355 P/V Pitch-to-voltage unit for sale boxed and in near mint condition.

These legendary pieces of early 80s, high quality Roland Rack gear are rare enough anyway, and this one comes from the studio of a very successful producer who has barely used it and kept it in superb condition. He used ‘a bank’ of these when working on early Cure albums – Roland gave him and the band a number of Roland Rack units – this one never got used. It comes with the original box, manual, foot switch and a Roland jack lead still in its original packaging – see the detailed photos for more information.

Checked over by our synth tech to ensure it is in full working order.

The internet can fill you in on anything you need to know about these superb pieces of kit – although if you’re looking at this then you probably have a pretty good idea of what they can do. But if you want a good tip then this extended version of Chris “Throbbing Gristle” Carter’s 2001 Sound on Sound article on the SPV-355 is a great resource with some very useful tips on how to push them far beyond what they were originally designed to do.
