The Roland SE-02 is a stunning-sounding analog mono synth with a Minimoog-style layout. The Oscillator section has Hard Sync and three XMOD types, which are used to control Omnisphere’s Ring Modulation, Waveshaping, and Unison. You also have delay controls, which are very handy. All this comes in a highly compact, low-priced, analog mono synth that sounds ridiculously great! Note that the controls are very small and this one’s not USB-powered, but it’s a powerful synth that can do so much with Omnisphere. it’s a very good controller for Omnisphere, unless you have large hands or bad eyesight!
