"The infamous, hype beast Roland Jupiter 8! When you think of the 1980s era, I guarantee that a Jupiter 8 was used in some of your favorite songs, soundtracks, and commercials throughout the world. It's A: a beautiful polyphonic synthesizer, and B: sounds incredible with just about every single patch/preset you play.
