However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Taking inspiration from the iconic Roland SH-101 monosynth, the S-1 combines retro-style with modern, advanced capabilities for a whole new level of music creation - suitable for musicians of all levels. The Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology used in the S-1 provides an authentic tone and response of the SH-101. With a simple and direct-access panel, the synthesizer is a breeze to explore and manipulate without any hassle.
The S-1 is a powerhouse of sound design and performance that is packed with tactile controls in a miniature size. The oscillator, envelope, filter, and LFO sections can help create lavish tones while the quick combo button presses can dive into deeper design tools. The powerful 26 multi-function pads offer access to a keyboard with a two-plus octave range, a step sequencer interface, and a wealth of creative options to spark fresh ideas. Adjust the effects using the dedicated knobs to make the synth sound exactly how you want.
Create sequences and patterns with ease using the 64-step sequencer (with 64 patterns). You can also record live with the onboard keyboard or switch to the step mode for detailed note entry and editing. Use motion recording to animate patterns with panel control tweaks, portamento, velocity shuffle, sub-steps for rapid-fire rhythms, and probability settings for randomization. All of these features can bring your music to life and help create beautiful, one-of-a-kind sonic landscapes.
Jam-packed with useful performance features, the S-1 can take your musical performances and compositions to the next level. The D-Motion feature lets you make compelling sound changes, just by moving the synth. You can pop on the arpeggiator for cascading musical moments and the Step Loop function for live fills and on-the-fly rhythmic improv. The S-1 also comes with MIDI I/O connectivity which allows you to connect the S-1 to a larger performance rig, giving you more creative options.
The Roland S-1 offers all the connectivity you need to sync with your musical world. You can link up with other AIRA Compacts, including the T-8 Beat Machine, J-6 Chord Synthesizer, and E-4 Voice Tweaker, to create an all-in-one portable creative juggernaut. Interface with computer DAWS and mobile music apps via the USB-C port.
Compact and highly portable, the S-1 features a built-in lithium-ion battery that provides up to 4.5 hours of runtime per charge. The rugged Roland build ensures that the S-1 is a robust device that can support you through years of musical journeys. So, no matter where your musical journey takes you, the Roland S-1 Tweak Synth is ready to transform any moment into musical inspiration.
