Roland Jupiter-8 & Alesis Ion Comparisons

Roland Jupiter 8 VS Alesis Ion "Polysynth" Comparison

YouTube Published on May 7, 2012 by synthartist69

"This is a Polysynth comparison between the Alesis Ion and the Roland Jupiter 8. The Ion does an outstanding job of creating a great Jupiter 8 polysynth patch. Both keyboards were played without effects. Although the Ion is no Jupiter, it can get the job done for certain sounds and can be bought used for about 15X less :)"

JP8 VS Ion "Sync Lead" Comparison

YouTube Published on May 6, 2012 by synthartist69

"In this video I am comparing both Sync Lead patches of the Alesis Ion and the Roland Jupiter 8. Although the Alesis Ion is digital, it does a fine job at producing a useful Sync Lead patch."

Small Buchla Two

YouTube Published on May 6, 2012 by Oxix52

"Another video with my little Skylab Buchla system. I am playing the 261e from the touch surface. I have a bit of vibrato coming in controlled by pressure on the touch surface. Also, as I slide my finger up the key, it increases the FM from the mod osc and causes the pitch to bend up as well as brighten the sound. I still feel a bit clumsy with it but I love the expressiveness of the 222e touch surface."

"Demo of a home-brew synth I built in the nineties from the excellent R.A.Penfold book 'Electronic Synthesiser Construction'.
It's a single VCO affair with an OTA based 12db/oct state variable VCF.
The sequence is from a x0xb0x controlling the synth over CV/Gate.
I'm selling it on eBay and the video has been posted to highlight a number of faults the synth has like the fact the LFO no longer functions, the tuning wanders and some of the controls are a bit flaky. Will prob leave it up on youTube after the auction for historical interest."
