"All sounds are pure JX-3P, embelished with a little Sanford reverb, recorded live in multitrack monophonic audio with Reaper. The JX-3P chorus was not used. The visualization is Milkdrop 2.25c, generated and captured at 60 frames per second."

"Roland JX-3P Organ, Pan Flute, Saxophone and Brass Section preset patch demo. These patches are examples from a soon-to-be-released sound set that will be available at an affordable price.

These patches can be loaded into a stock JX-3P from a cell phone headphone jack to the input jack of the Tape Memory interface on the back of the synthesizer. An old phone that you have but no longer use makes a great dedicated storage device that you can always have hooked up for easy access. This is a good workaround if your JX-3P has a dead battery and you want to load sounds until you get the battery replaced.

These patches can be programmed manually into a Kiwi-3p KiwiTechnics or River Creative Technology (Organix) modified unit or a Roland Sound Cloud ACB VST instrument using the included data chart decoded from the tape memory audio file.

The JX-3P has a 3rd memory bank with 16 additional presets in the Service Mode. This memory is shared with the Sequencer and is overwritten when a sequence is written. However, if you write a short sequence of no more than 32 steps, it will still be there after you write patches into the 3rd memory bank.

Service Mode is accessed by pressing and releasing the Tape Memory button, then while pressing and holding patch button 4, pressing and releasing the Tape Memory button again. An alternative method is to press and hold patch button 4 when the JX-3P is switched off and then switching it on.

The JX-3P factory presets only hint at the sonic possibilities of this instrument. With the same basic sound as the Jupiter 8, I have found that the JX-3P's only real limitations are the shared envelope generator, and lack of a 2' pitch for the oscillators even though there is a button available for it, something that is found on the Jupiter 6 and Jx-8P. There are workarounds to these limitations that can still enable the creation of fun-to-play sounds reminiscent of the Yamaha DX7 and the Roland D-50. I have come to believe that the JX-3P really should have been named the JX-6, with the JX-8P designated JX-6A or JX-8 if it were upgraded to 8 note polyphony.

The soundtrack for this video was produced in Reaper with the plugins MT Power Drum Kit 2 for percussion and Sanford Sound Design Reverb for ambience. The JX-3P was recorded live in monophonic audio. The music is an original composition."
