Roland • JP-8000

The JP-8000 Music Synthesizer has been designed using a first-of-its-kind Roland Analog Modeling sound source, combining the fat, powerful sounds associated with vintage analog synths with the flexibility of digital technology and MIDI. Like the classic Roland analog synths of the past, the JP-8000 sports a collection of 38 front-panel knobs and sliders for powerful real-time control, opening a brand new world of sonic possibilities. Innovative "Motion Control" feature memorizes all sequential slider and knob movements, ensuring that a great real-time "tweak" will not be lost. "Analog" synth functions like oscillator sync, ring modulation, -12/-24 dB filtering, cross modulation, an assignable ribbon controller and powerful pitch bend/modulation lever make the JP-8000 a very powerful synthesizer for live and studio use!
The JP-8000 is excellent for use in any music where classic synth sounds are needed. For techno, dance, drum&bass, hiphop, film scoring, synth pop and more! It is used by the Crystal Method, BT, Orbital, Ken Ishii, Vince Clarke, Goldie, Dave Holmes, Prodigy, Groove Armada, Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, ATB, Überzone, Faithless, Gary Numan, Scooter, Konflict, William Ørbit, Paul Van Dyk, Groove Armada, and Garbage.
1 thousand 8 hundred pounds i was upset i was more then happy to pay that . people that call this synth cant program it simple ?
if they could program it then they would yall over it``` all year long
its a beast and will never ever sell my Roland 8080 and the 8000
the hard part is knowing how to program it which i have now past any ability needed to produce very powerful analog >
this is also a synth that will gain in value in the near future >
just like the jupiter 8
The arpeggiator is very funky lots of options and the RPS is fun.
To sum up if you can't get a decent sound out of this then there's no helping you.
