ROLAND JUPITER 4 - Sounds, Patches & Presets | Synth Demo

synth4ever

"Roland Jupiter-4 analog synthesizer demo, featuring some sounds, patches and presets. This Roland Jupiter 4 synth demo showcases some pads, S&H patches, LFO tweaking, filter resonance, and envelopes. Filmed at Vintage Synth Museum in Oakland, CA.

Manufactured from 1978 to 1981, the Roland Jupiter-4 was Roland's first polyphonic synthesizer and supported programmable memories and voice assignment modes. It features 49 keys, 4 voices of polyphony, 1 VCO (triangle, square, square with PWM) + 1 sub per voice, 1 LFO (triangle/square/sawtooth/reverse sawtooth), a resonant lowpass and resonant highpass filter, 2 ADSR envelopes for VCF and VCA, built-in ensemble/chorus effect and arpeggiator.

The Roland Jupiter-4's LFO is routable to oscillator pitch, pulse width, filter cutoff and amplifier and can reach audio frequencies, allowing for crude FM and AM synthesis. The Jupiter 4's arpeggiator provides a choice of up, down, up/down, or random mode, and there is also polyphonic portamento/glide on-board which can be used in conjunction with the arp. Ten presets and 8 user memory slots allow you to create and save your own sounds and patches.

The Roland Jupiter-4 is known for producing rough and raw sounds, big low-end bass, crazy fast LFO metallic timbres, and gritty resonance. In this Roland Jupiter-4 demo I tried to show a few of these types of sounds during my brief time with it. The Roland Jupiter-4 often commands high prices on the second-hand market these days."

Analog Four, Octatrack, Roland JV880 & Modular #synth rack Test

Synth & Sundry

"A short synth snippet using a demo loop from the Octatrack Yard Sale Gear Sample Pack to test out whether Analog Four, Roland JV880 digital synth, Eurorack Modular and Octatrack were all connected correctly both in terms of audio signal and MIDI clock, sync, transport and note/patch data. The keyboard used is an Arturia KeyStep.

Audio recorded into Ableton Live through RME Fireface UFX. Video footage recorded Canon EOS 700D/Rebel T5i

Arturia Prophet V Hybrid Mode Demo and Tutorial

CatSynth TV

"In Part 2 of our detailed look at the Arturia Prophet V, we explore hybrid mode. This is a novel feature that combines the interfaces and features of both the Prophet 5 and VS in a semi-modular architecture. You can mix and match the oscillators, filters, and modulators from both instruments.

Origins - Fundamental, Eurorack, VCV Rack, Felt Instruments

"The WAV file for this performance is available on my Patreon page - https://www.patreon.com/posts/39239825

Here are some patch notes:
--------------------------------------------------
- I recorded Fundamental into the Morphagene, and I'm playing it an octave lower. Morphagene is also going into VCV Rack for some reverb with Plateau.
- I recorded a different sound from Fundamental into Arbhar, and I have the built-in reverb set to output only the wet signal.
- I'm triggering the Basimilus with the 1U Noise Tools module set to random, and it's going through the VoicAS LedRover and the Mimeophon.
- The Rate of the Mimeophon is being modulated by the Slew output of the Noise Tools module, and I have the ping pong mode on and also the Flip function.
- I have a few piano notes recorded into Nebulae, and I'm playing them in reverse and very slowly. Nebulae is going into VCV Rack for some reverb.
- I have one Freak module loaded with Vraids, the alternative firmware with 2 Braids inside, and I'm using 2 Particle Cloud models and sending them to another Freak with a stereo band pass filter.
- I'm modulating the VCA of the Vraids Freak with the Noise Tools, and I'm modulating the cutoff point of each of the channels of the second Freak with a 2 random smooth signals coming from VCV Rack.
- I have a recording of Janso from Felt Instruments on Microcell and Magneto.
- I'm modulating the position of Microcell with an LFO from VCV Rack.
- Magneto is in Shift mode so I get some harmonics of the recorded sound.
- I added the flute after the recording of the main patch."
