"Mitch Gallagher gives an overview of Roland's Boutique Series synthesizers: the JP-08, JU-06, and JX-03, along with the optional K-25m keyboard controller and module dock. These synth modules bring back classic Roland synth designs for a new generation of musicians, using their Analog Circuit Behavior modeling to re-create their original analog character.
All of these synth modules give you the sound and feel of working with the original synths, plus some new enhancements. The JP-08 is based on the Jupiter-8 synthesizer, and expands on the original with extra waveforms and an extended VCO range. The JU-06, based on the Juno-106, adds a variable highpass filter and a faster LFO. And the JX-03, modeled after the JX-3P, adds extra waveforms for the LFO and DCOs, as well as an extended DCO range.
These synth modules offer tons of hands-on control, built-in sequencers, and true portability thanks to battery operation and a built-in mini speaker."

"Hi everyone,
In this video I want to share the experience of opening the Roland Boutique Synths for the very first time. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I did. I'm a little goofy in the vid, but that was my honest reaction."

"Fully functional, all keys, sliders, buttons, knobs, wheels, jacks, ports in full 100% order. Aside from a few light surface marks in the rear, synthesizer is in Excellent cosmetic condition. Was cleaned and battery replaced by authorized tech, this passed summer.
Display nice and bright, all controls fully responsive, sound nice and full.
One thing to note is that the Bit One displayed a characteristic where there's a slight but audible white noise from the headphone jack. This is due to the amp circuitry on the headphone jack, this is not audible from the main outs. Nice clean sound from main outs."
