Roland JX-8P vs MKS-70 | They Should Sound Identical. They Don't. Why?


video upload by Espen Kraft

"Roland JX-8P vs MKS-70 | These Two Synths Should Sound Identical. They Don't. Why?
Many of the patches I use can be found here: https://espenkraft.com/b/hBPIn

Age of electronics, different electronics/chips etc. Both synth are loaded up with the same sysex patch each time.
I'm only using one of the two voice cards of the MKS-70 (upper) to match the 8P's polyphony.
The 8P smears the sound out more, due to its chorus, or age. The MKS-70 is cleaner, darker and of course more powerful since it's TWO 8Ps in box.

This is another ridiculously comparisons video that serves no other purpose than to fetishise old gear."

Roland System 100m (Live Demo)


video upload by Brett Little

"A quite night in with the 100m. Since having a baby there has been little time to get back into the swing of things in the studio. Trying to find time when I can to enjoy the little moments like this."

7/1/26 Roland TR-909 & RE-201 + ElectroComp EML 400/401 + SDS1 + Dukane 2a76 + MIDIVERB 2 + CXM 1978


video upload by Cfpp0

"This video is shot at a more revealing angle than usual, to document the setup before we change it. When we added an EML 400/401 to our EML 200, we made custom shelves to line the three panels up on a table. But we got a great deal on a second EML 200 during the pandemic, so that got installed on a metal shelf over the first EML 200. The studio kept growing over the years, with lots of revisions on how it is all arranged, but the EML 400/401 hasn’t moved an inch. I never liked this hockey stick configuration and have always felt the EML 400/401 is a bit underutilized. This summer we’ve decided to move the 400 above the 401, creating a big EML block, so that the 400 is closer to the 200s, to the Buchla system, and so it’s easier to reach everything at once.

Anyways, the point of this patch was to use V1 on the right set of stages to reset the left set of stages. It’s a fun trick because you can control when and how often you want to reset the sequence using the sliders. The TR-909 is externally clocked by ALM Pamela’s New Workout at 130bpm. The kick and rim shot are saturated by the Dukane 2a76. The snare sound is the Simmons SDS1, triggered by the rim shot trigger output on the 909. The EML 401 filter is in high pass mode. At 0:43 I drop the kick, unmute the clap and hats, and turn off the voltage control of the envelope, which makes it sound like a goose. At 1:13 I change the TR-909 pattern and switch the routing of the lower voltages on the 400, from V4 to V3 and from V3 to V4."
