The manual lists a lot of available CCs:
Holy s***!
This time they didnāt left anything to the boutique counterpart!
199,- Thatās 4 years of Logic Pro on iPad. Yeah I just said that. 
I was just wondering exactly that!
Theyāve done the big hitters Juno, 101, 303 and 808 (sorta) already
Jupiter 8? This time with 8 voices unlike the JP-08?
For $199 that would be out of this world
Logicās subscription is really not as deep as you think it is.
Back to this Synth -
This new Rolca with the chop/draw and better sequencer seems to really be on a different level. Much more capable than the other rolcas and the Korg volcas that inspired them.
Forgot to mention the midi CC seems to not be lacking on this one either.
Go Go Roland!
Woop! I wouldnāt get it to replace a SH-01a due to the sliders, but for a portable 101 it is irresistible.
Hope the CC implementation is rolled out to the other Aira minis now.
-
SH01a for the studio, durability and the look (I canāt imagine getting rid of my blue edition).
-
S-1 for the portability, fun and couch sessions
Damn Roland, this time we canāt even find anything wrong in it to resist the GAS 
a cigarette packet sized, battery powered SH-101 for Ā£180? i avoid ātoyā synths but this one is a no-brainer. roland will never stop being a bit cringe but itās hard not to be impressed by this one
If the T-8 gets midi CC itās instabuy for me!
Next a Aira mini mixer, 4 sliders, 4 stereo ins, sync/midi, recording, sequencer for scatter, 2 fx please Roland.
Screw it. Ordered
Tempted as well I donāt see it in Germanyā¦
Edit: found it at thomann and ordered. What the hell!
Damn, just a couple of days ago I said Iād like an SH-101 with knobs.
But not like this, Roland⦠not like this.
Thereās always the SH-4D if you want something a little bigger
True, the SH-01A probably meets my needs a little better tbh - I feel like the sound of an SH-101 is only part of the puzzle - this new S-1 doesnāt seem to have any expressive input which is quite important for getting the vibe IMO and Iām getting carpel tunnel just looking at it. But itās clearly winning folks over so Roland seem to be onto a winner with it either way!
Weāre spoiled for choice really when it comes to 101 clones/alikes, in wide range of form factors
S-1, SH-01A, SH-4D, the Behringer MS-1 (thereās likely even more)
I will admit sticking the MS-1 through a tonne of distortion and reverb and f**king about with the mod-wheel and portamento for an hour making doom-drone is some of the best fun Iāve had.
As well as motion sequences it can do p-locks, very cool!

The draw and chop functions are very inviting. I went straight to look up cc destinations and alas we cannot address individual slices in the waveform. I was all-in if that was possible.
Edit: Never mind, a bit unrealistic of me to be expecting audio rate midi. Chord shift might suffice. 
Edit: Then again, modulation would not have to be synced to every cycle ⦠Re-imagining the flexibility of this feature now and canāt help feeling they would have my money if each slice was open to midi cc. LFO per waveform slice would be dreamy ā¦
