Two videos in the playlist above. Resolution video further below.

Part 1 demos:

"Hello friends,

I just finished recording the sound files for our new analog blind tasting. As I announced in my Rant, this time the new Roland JX-08 boutique is competing against its forefather, the JX-8P. To make it more exciting, I thought I'd just play them for you today before we bring you our comparison video next week.

But now to the sounds. Concentration and listen carefully!

Sound 1: DC01 Saw Filter open
Sound 2: DC01 Saw Filter open plus Chorus 1

Sound 4: DC01 only - Square Filter open
Sound 5: DC01 only - Pulse Filter open
Sound 6: Preset A26 'Poly Brass’
Sound 7: Preset A06 'Lo Strings'
