Geoff from geoffmobile.com shows how to layer tones and create an “ocean waves” soundscape using his Roland Gaia SH-01 Synthesizer. He also shows some other sounds such as a video game sound at the end.

Geoff starts from the basic Wurlitzer patch he created. To download the Wurlitzer patch for your Gaia, please visit:

You can also get more sounds for the Gaia (many for free) from Roland’s new sound bank website:

The Roland Gaia SH-01 is my favorite synth because it has huge polyphony, the ability to layer three different tones, and a huge array of neat effects and ways to modify and design the sound. It is a digital synth that simulates the sound of an analog synth. It has analog-synth-like controls that let you design the sound as you play.
