The Roland Jupiter 8 in Action! Dry & Direct

video upload by Andy Whitmore

"Hold onto your seats because this Jupiter 8 demonstration, in glorious stereo, will blow you away. Showing off the different abilities that has made it one of the most famous synths ever made!
We show off the Noise with Filter, Resonance & Modulation capabilities in great detail, with the left & right sides working independently.
The arpeggiator with its versatile patterns, being tweaked on the live panel.
A stunning showing of the power of the Jupiter 8 with low aggressive power chords filtered & modulated.

There were only a few synths - back in the 80s that mastered the polyphonic glide - here we hear the versatile polyphonic glide doing what it does best!
The 3rd part of this video covers Programming including tuning the oscillators, playing the Jupiter 8 as a lead synth in unison & pretty sounds to add colour to your track.
The final part shows you some of my best programmed sounds including brassy sawtooth pads, plucked stabs, flute layering, soft percussive sounds, interesting pads, 80s picking parts
resonance pads, lead sounds & sharp attacking aggressive cutting melodic lines.
So lets dive in!

The audio is DIRECT, 100% DRY, & IN STEREO - You are hearing the raw audio as it comes directly from the synthesizer. NO post processing (Effects, EQ, or Dynamics) whatsoever.
