Roland Boutique - JP-08 and JU-06 Demo - Jupiter Loves Juno

Published on Dec 5, 2015 JimBobJrJackson Earmonkey

"Who says four voices can't sound big? Anyone who's never layered a JP-08 with a JU-06. Two pad patches I programmed for each synth, recorded in Ableton. Delay and reverb FX provided by Valhalla Ubermod and Valhalla Shimmer."

Roland Boutique - Two JP-08 Modules in Chain Mode Demo 1

Published on Dec 9, 2015 JimBobJrJackson Earmonkey

"Big huge sound out of 8-voices of JP-08. I played the first patch with NO external effects, but there is some internal delay. The first patch is played in Dual mode which gives you four voices in total, but each voice has FOUR oscillators pumping out sound, and slightly delayed or detuned or something. Not sure what Roland has going on there, but it sounds incredibly big. The following few patches were played first dry, then with some chorus added. 8 voices with external chorus can be great. Finally, I show the two units in solo mode which gives you a big huge four oscillators. You could do this by simply layering as well, but in chain mode both units will respond to changes made on unit 1. So if you change the cutoff frequency, for example, it will change on both units. This is just a short little demo. I'll have more coming later."

Roland Boutique JP-08 (Jupiter 8 module) Live Session

Published on Oct 24, 2015 JimBobJrJackson Earmonkey

"I've had the JP-08 for a few days now. Getting to know it. It's very powerful and it sounds fantastic. This is just a little demo of me sitting at the keyboard for a while and tweaking the sounds. I"m not the greatest keyboard player so forgive me there.

Most everything was done in manual mode. There are no factory presets here. The two patches I pull up at the end are ones I created myself. The majority of this demo is all JP-08 recorded straight into Ableton with no FX. When I do use FX near the end, as noted on the video, I am using Valhalla Ubermod for chorus, and Valhalla Shimmer for that shimmery big reverb. The delay on the lead sound is just an Ableton Ping Pong delay. The sounds are played dry first though so you can tell what the synth sounds like without the processing. But let's face it...we have FX for a reason so why not use them.

I will keep making videos because this 12 minutes doesn't even scratch the surface. If there's something you'd like to know about this unit I'll be glad to answer questions or post more video. I always find that helpful when I'm considering a purchase.

If you just want to talk about how awful and stupid the Boutique range is, well, I guess you can, though I'm not sure what purpose it serves. Buy a Jupiter 8 and be happy. Whining about the Boutique units is kind of like kicking puppies and about as worthwhile. I have a Juno 106 and guess what. I like this JP-08 better.

Sorry for the sometimes blurry video. My son didn't know what I wanted him to shoot. And also, the video ends before the audio by a few seconds. Well this is my first video like this so it'll get better"

Disassembled Record Player for module (prototype)

Published on Dec 24, 2015 Dani Dögenigt

"Want to make a compact and simple upright record player for my modular system. This is a very early prototype without speed control or stabilization."

This is pretty interesting. Imaging using various LPs for CV control. New interpretations of classic tracks. Would would Hendrix, the Beatles or even Aphex Twin bring? Another interesting thing to think about is if you made an album using CV control of another album would it be considered copyright violation?

Rare Multivox MX8100 - Analog Synth Controller/Sequencer - 1979

"Multivox MX-8100 branded a "Computer Basic System." Extremely nice condition for such a vintage unit. Made in late seventies, think I bought in very early eighties. Only minor issue is two missing plastic feet that I must have taken off probably thirty years ago to fit it into whatever keyboard stand I was using at the time. I found one rub mark on back and some very minor wear on edges. See pics for details.

I purchased this at the same time as the SPV-355 Analog Roland Synth I recently sold here on ebay. The control voltage works perfectly with old Roland and Korg Analog Synths. I remember making an adaptor to use with my Minimoog back in the day."
