"The 49-note JP-8000 is an 8-voice synthesizer that offered an impressive array of knobs and sliders to manipulate its analog modeling synthesis engine. It has an arpeggiator and a built-in Motion Control function that allowed operations on the panel to be recorded and played back."

"SN: ZJ32449-H (DEC 1996)

A classic synth from Roland. This synth had its audio restored to factory quality and sounds great. This is a used piece of gear with a few small cosmetic scuffs, but the overall condition is very good. The keybed feels and plays great, the ribbon controller is responsive, the joystick has a good feeling with a nice spring back. No issues with buttons, knobs, sliders, or LCD."

2024 (1996) Virtually Analog Synth Calendar by DinDrum Audio

via DinDrum

Note it appears to be a digital download you print out yourself.

"I wanted to have a synth calendar to hang on my studio wall, so I made one.

Why 1996?

1996 is the same calendar as 2024, so being a synth nerd I made my "Virtually Analog 1996 Calendar" for 2024.

Featuring the synths just released and available in 1996 (this new Virtual Analog technology allowed these Digital Synths to emulate the Analog synths of the past) The Roland JP-8000 , the original nord lead and the Korg Prophecy (also featured physical modeling technology).

JP6K Synthesizer by Adam Szabo (No Talking)

video upload by Elektronick Musick

JP6K made its first appearance on the site back in 2011.

"JP6K is a virtual synthesizer dedicated to emulating the famous Super Saw sound, first found in the Roland JP-8000 synthesizer in 1997. It aims to capture the essence of the sound and the behavior of the original oscillator. Even after decades, the Super Saw is still an important tool for producers and musicians all around the world, and is a crucial part of many kinds of electronic music!

Features
32 Voice Polyphony
2 Super Saw oscillators with Panning
1 Noise oscillator
Resizeable GUI
3 Filter modes: Low Pass, Band Pass and High Pass with -12 & -24 dB/Oct
3 independent LFOs controlling the Filter, Amp and Pitch
Pitch envelope
Glide (Portamento) / MIDI pitch-wheel support
Built in Delay and Equalizer
114 presets, which includes presets from CFA-Sound, MASCHINENBAUERMUSIC, Mikey O’Hare and Grzegorz"

"Supersaw sandstorm" First I heard it called that way.

The listing mentions:

"Origin of the supersaw! Excellent condition. Includes original rack ears and Hirakawa AC cable."

The JP-8000 keyboard was the first to the have the supersaw. The 8080 was the follow-up with added "Voice Modulator" / vocoder.

I had to reupload this due to being a Davinci Resolve noob. There were all sorts of weird artifacts in the audio with the original upload. Hopefully it's fixed now.

I'm not sure if there's a point to this video at all. I love soft pad sounds. They're warm and comforting. I decided to make a pad sound on the Roland JX-3P and one thing led to another and of course I had to make a similar sound on ALL of my analog and virtual analog polysynths, including Eurorack, as I now have all the components to make a 2-VCO 4-voice polysynth. All of these pads are based on a simple 2-oscillator sawtooth, with a little detuning and pitch mod to one of the oscillators, if possible. On the Juno I there's only 1 oscillator, so there's maybe a little more LFO to pitch than on the other synths.

In the beginning, you see me play the notes on the Oberheim OB-X8 (Yes, it's an X8 and not something vintage, I have a pinstripe overlay, mostly for the Page 2 labels). I used that "performance" to capture the MIDI, which is then routed to all the other synths that are featured here, including the Eurorack setup. Before tracking the modular stuff, I removed some notes from the recorded MIDI so that there wouldn't be all sorts of crazy unpredictable voice stealing.

I used the built-in chorus on the JX-3P, so I figured it's only fair to use chorus on everything. I used the TAL Juno Chorus plugin on the OB-X8 and Nord Lead 2, setting 1. I used the built-in Chorus II on the Juno-6, and the "slow chorus" on the JP-8000. For the Sequential OB-6 and Yamaha Reface CS, I went for a similar type of slow chorus. The chorus on the OB-6 is very usable if you keep the rate low. There are sweet spots to be found. For Eurorack, I used the Mimeophon with a short delay time. It doesn't really do the chorus thing so much, but it does sort of act as a stereo widener. So if it sounds a little clangy, that's probably why.

Eurorack 4-voice poly is assembled like so:
Voice 1: 2 VCOs from the System-500 512, System-500 521 VCF, System-500 VCA, System-500 envelope
Voice 2: 2 Eowave Titan VCOs, System-500 521 VCF, System-500 VCA, System-500 envelope
Voice 3: 2 VCOs from the Wavefonix Dual CEM 3340, G-Storm SH5-VCF, Doepfer VCA, Doepfer Envelope
Voice 4: Dreadbox Erebus all internal VCOs, VCF, VCA, and envelope
All voices are mixed together and then fed into the Mimeophon
There is some additional filter modulation applied to all filters via the Erebus LFO

After the first round, all recordings are played again with the wonderfully lush Audiothingies DoctorA modulated plate reverb, approx 50/50 wet/dry mix."

Boss DM-101: First Jam with synths - Oberheim OB-X8 and Roland JP-8000

video upload by thesrabbit

"I got the DM-101 yesterday and immediately fell in love with the character and stereo modes in particular. I decided to make a quick jam that features my favorite mode so far, the stereo "pattern" mode. This mode has some nice stereo width and interesting tempo sync'd delay repeats. Since the repeats are a bit on the long side, for a BBD, there's plenty of lo-fi goodness, which almost sounds like a bit crusher.

I ran both the JP-8000 and OB-X8 into a mixer, and then FX sends from the mixer to the DM-101. I had no problems sending the mixer line-level signal to the 101. I thought I might have to use a re-amp box to bring the the level down, but I didn't have to, which is great.

I was lazy and recorded straight into Mainstage, which is not great because I couldn't mix the dry synth track and FX track after. Sometimes the balance is good, other times not so much. Oh well, it was a quick live jam so whatever. I just wanted to record something with this particular delay setting, which I have since saved as a preset of course.

Sorry the videography is so boring. My room is a total mess and I don't have anywhere good to position the camera right now.

All of the OB-X8 patches will be included in my upcoming soundset. Release date TBD."

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about Roland V-Synth.

Is it on par with other classics like the Roland Jupiter-8, Roland D-50 or Roland JP-8000?

"The JP-8000 is a classic analog modeling synth, it is famous for being the original synth to include the super saw waveform. There is full control of all the parameters on the front panel causing there to be little menu diving.

This classic is in immaculate condition, a total time capsule! Recently calibrated and has a freshly installed battery. Purchased from the original owner, super clean! Screen protector is still in place."
