via this auction

"Serial #181894. This Jupiter 8 is the more dependable 14bit model. It tunes up, plays and sounds like a dream! Please view my video below [above] which shows the inside and outside of this Jupiter 8 and has a music track I created from this synthesizer in the background. I have owned it about 3 years. It has Encore midi installed by Switched On electronics in Austin, Texas. I have used the midi in a very limited role so I do not know much about it as I am not much of a midi guy. Power supply was recapped by Switched On as part of a preventive maintenance. A new lithium battery has been installed. Everything works properly. Sliders work smoothly. Buttons respond as they should. Keys work as they should. I have made a ton of Youtube videos with this Jupiter 8 if you want to check those out just look up Synthartist69 Jupiter 8 [plenty posted here on MATRIXSYNTH]. Cosmetically it is in great shape other than wear and touch up on the ROLAND logo on the back. I still play this synthesizer at least two to three times a week in my SMOKE FREE home. Why am I selling? I am raising cash to build a new home. I have been selling on Ebay since 2001 and have 100% feedback there as well if you would like to check that out. This Jupiter 8 is the real deal, not some synth being sold by someone who doesn't even know how to play it or how it works. It is my favorite analog ever created by far and it hurts to sell it."

Roland Jupiter 8 vs Roland Juno 60 First Comparison

Published on Oct 24, 2018 synthartist69

"In this video, I attempted to match one of my custom patches, Synthbrass to the Jupiter 8 using the Juno 60. I did not add any effect during the first part of the video so that you could hear the raw sound of both. When adding the Juno chorus effect, I detuned the Jupiter 8 oscillators to match the Juno chorus. I do apologize for any noise in the video. The noise is associated with the Juno 60 chorus effect, common issue with Juno 60's but easy to work around with lower pre mixer input volume levels. The Jupiter 8 is an incredible sounding synthesizer but a Juno 60 deserves to be up there in the high ranks along with it. What are you thoughts? Do you own either of these great synths? NOW.. don't get on Ebay or Reverb and start running the Juno 60 prices through the roof thinking you now have a Jupiter 8!! But, in my opinion.. the Juno 60 is still one helluva a value and it sounds so much better than modern synthesizers. Yes it is limited, but for me it is all about the basic sound and these Roland filters sound incredible.. especially when you add the chorus effect."

The Jupiter of course has two independent VCOs, Sync, and Crossmod. The Juno-60 has one DCO and one Sub osc.

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."

JP8 VS JP6 Strings Comparison

Published on Apr 30, 2012 by synthartist69

"In this video I am comparing two string patches from the Jupiter 8 and the Jupiter 6. I created both patches from scratch and tried to get these as close to one another as I could. The one issue I had during this process was that by cutting off the brightness of the JP6 strings in the upper octaves seemed to have a more profound effect on the lower octaves. The Jupiter 8 strings seemed to be more balanced in warmth and brightness from one end of the keyboard to the other. The JP6 was not as balanced. No external effects were used. I apologize for the noise in the video, some of it is on my end, but some of it is also on Youtube's end which I have not found a resolution for as of yet."

"This Jupiter 8 was the fifth one down the assembly line and is still solid as a rock! In this video I am playing a Brass patch in split mode in which the arpeggios are assigned to the lower half of the synth."

Roland Jupiter 6 "1980's"

YouTube Published on May 21, 2012 by synthartist69

"In this video I am taking advantage of the split keyboard function by assigning the arpeggio to the lower half of the keyboard. This video can also be compared with a similar video that I recently made of the Jupiter 8 called "1980" if you wish to hear the difference in the Brass."

Note this is a synthartist69 listing. You've seen his videos including the Jupiter-8 here on MATRIXSYNTH numerous times.

via the auction:  "I have treated it like a King. It is a low serial number...actually the 5th Roland Jupiter built. It has encore midi installed. It has a new battery and rebuilt power supply. I put it in the shop last summer at Thesis Audio in Wichita, Kansas. I drove 5 hours to hand deliver it and 5 hours to go back a week later and pick it up. He went through the synthesizer, replaced the battery, rebuilt the power supply and other minor things. I spent around 450.00. It was working before I took it up there but I wanted it to be in perfect working condition. I would give the condition a solid 9/10. If you live locally you can come by and play it and check it all out. At this time, I will not ship this Jupiter 8. It is way too risky considering the value of it. No matter where you live in the United States, it would be worth the drive to come and get it!!! The sound is breathtaking, the bass is phenomenal, the strings are to die for, the pads are incredible! I have made a ton of videos of me playing this synthesizer over the last year so be sure to check some of those out..."

Roland Jupiter 8 vs Roland Juno 60 Strings Battle!!!

Published on Oct 25, 2018 synthartist69

"The battle of The Strings has arrived. A long awaited battle between two of my favorite synthesizers, the Roland Jupiter 8 and Juno 60. At around 3 min in I add delay and then pull it back out around the 5 min mark. It comes back again later on in the demo. Honestly, I really didn't need to add any effect at all but i wanted to demonstrate these strings with and without. Which synthesizer wins this battle? Will it be the warmth of the Jupiter 8 or the colored chorus of the amazing Juno 60? Both synthesizers have things that the other cannot do, but both synthesizers are amazing."

JP80 VS JP8 Jupiter Strings Comparison

YouTube Published on Apr 22, 2012 by synthartist69

"In this video I compare similar string patches of the Jupiter 80 and the Jupiter 8. What I have found in this case is that if you play a single note and compare, the sound is very similar between both Jupiters. However, if you play chords you can hear a difference in which the Jupiter 80 has a very nasal effect to the sound, especially in the higher octaves. Both keyboards were played with the EQ flat including the patch eq on the JP80. All effects were turned off."
