JE-8086 - JP8000 Emulator Now Available

video upload by Elektronick Musick

Follow-up to this post.

Walkthrough by Autodafe:

JE-8086 Is OUT NOW – FREE Roland JP-8000 clone!

video upload by Autodafe

Note it requires a ROM of the OS.

"JE-8086 is now available as a public Beta, and in this video I take a closer, more technical look at the current state of the synth. I previously covered JE-8086 during its Alpha phase, and this update shows what has evolved and how the instrument behaves now that it’s opened up to everyone.

The video focuses on the **dual-part architecture (Part A / Part B)**, explaining how the two parts can be configured with different patches and used simultaneously inside a track. I walk through how each part can be treated independently, making JE-8086 suitable for layered sounds, splits, or performance-style switching within a single instance.

I also demonstrate how to *set up and use automation* for both parts of the synth, showing practical examples of parameter automation inside the DAW. This includes controlling sound-shaping parameters over time and managing automation lanes when working with the dual-engine structure.

JE-8086 is a 1:1 emulation of the original Roland JP-8000, built by The Usual Suspects and aiming for cycle-accurate behavior. The architecture, signal flow, and character closely follow the original hardware, making this one of the most faithful JP-8000 recreations currently available in software form.

via this Reverb listing

"So I don't know much about this thing. I haven't even tried to power it up. Would probably be fun in noise sets or for learning electronics.

I have no reason to think it doesn't work but I have not had time to order an adapter to power it on. I was thinking to retrofit a more normal IEC plug on the back. Since it's 100v it will need a step down transformer (probably about $80 on amazon).

As far as shipping, the quote you're seeing is for me taking the panels off the rails and packing them more easily into a smaller box, but then mailing the rails to you. It might be possible for a similar price to keep it all together. I'm friendly, we'll work something out if this is destined to be yours."

Redshift 6 – X-Delay ACID

video upload by Supercritical Synthesizers

"Here is four plus minutes of live-acid tweaking with Redshift 6 over a drum track, and experimenting with using LFOs to replace manual tweaking.

Part 1: 101-style Bass line
Part 2: Acid Lead
Part 3: Backing Acid Sequence
Part 4: Strings

The Redshift 6’s FX engines deliver production-level, 24-bit stereo effects. Its parallel signal path allows analog audio to be blended with DSP effects, combining the warmth and character of the analog signal path with the precision and flexibility of modern digital processing."

Black Corporation Xerxes MK2 :: Building a Pad from Scratch :: Sound Design

video upload by Harry van Mierloo

"Little sound design session on the Black Corporation Xerxes MK2 to test a lightweight recording setup directly to my phone.

No fancy post-processing, maximizing, review, just me building a pad from scratch on the wonderful Xerxes and exploring various variations of it, to give you an idea of the sound design freedom. The patch is initialized from a basic single saw wave patch and I play around with low pass and band pass filtering for the pads. Later in the recording I add some reverb from the @Strymon BigSky, which always helps on a pad.

Like most synths, a basic patch like this might not immediately sound '5K expensive' without effects, refinement and post-processing. Fortunately this versatile machine can do a lot more and is a real joy to use with all its hands-on control. Some typical Elka-features like Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM), sync phase control and oscillator self resonance, add to the unique character of this synth. It's a really enjoyable synth and I feel it's going to be one of my main workhorses.

I love how good a DCO-based synths can sound, and they are usually great for pads. Like on the Matrix-1000 and JX-8P, DCOs are super stable by nature, so imperfections need to be added manually. Apart from tuning tweaks/modulation, the Xerxes has a nice drift control for this.

Enjoy, and next time I'll clean the camera lens, I promise! 😅"

Minimal Synthwave with Flowing Melodies | Passing Train 2025-12-28 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using the ‪@KORG_INC‬ MS-20 and the ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field.
It is a minimal synthwave composition where steady harmonies are accompanied by an expansive, flowing synth melody.

On the MS-20, delay is applied using the ‪@strymon‬ TIMELINE, followed by reverb from the blueSky.
While performing, the filter cutoff and frequency modulation are adjusted in real time to shape the evolving tone.

On the OP-1 field, a single chord is looped using the ENDLESS sequencer, and the performance is transposed live from the keyboard.
The OP-1 field is connected to the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII, where reverb and micro-loop processing are used to create lingering, atmospheric tails."
