You could layer as many together as you like, just depending on how much your CPU can handle I guess.

I really like the PG-8X VST too, and IMO it can sound very close to a real JX on some patches, however the texture is definitely audibly better on the JX-8P and also the patches don't translate properly all the time. Perhaps this is not even possible due to the many revisions to the JX-8P and different calibration between (real) units.

Thank you so much for watching!

whats the patch

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you so much for the kind words! What a wonderful way to start my day here, seeing this comment. It means a lot to me knowing that this music has brought you so much joy. That's really what it's all about :)

This is one of the best pieces of music with synthetizer I ever listened to...

Can you switch sequences on these?

The M1 holds up to 10 songs in sequencer mode but since the unit lacks storage, your songs will be short. I created patterns for drum tracks which will free up some space. I literally was only able to write 1 song at a time with internal storage and then I would record the song externally then erase the song and start a new one. Not sure if this answered your question. @@amonster8mymother

Wow. Good eye! haha. I had to look and see what you were talking about. It's not there anymore. Back then, for a few months, I had a weird small lump or something. It came and went. It was a little painful sometimes. I think it was a 'Ganglion Cyst'

I will try a translation as well here - Oh. Buon occhio! ahah. Dovevo guardare e vedere di cosa stavi parlando. Non c'è più. Allora, per alcuni mesi, ho avuto uno strano piccolo nodulo o qualcosa del genere. Andava e veniva. A volte era un po' doloroso. Penso che fosse una "cisti gangliare" Thanks for watching!

The D-550, though, provided it doesn't break down due to old age, will never need a licence, though. Or an internet connection. Or depend on Roland servers to be up. Or depend on Roland to exist as a company.

@SeverityOne Some people have died since I last saw comments like this, you know. Nothing belongs to us forever, not even our body. Make music with what you have, don't collect equipment that collects dust. Eternity awaits each of us, but not in this life.

@@Acrimonious_Snake Yes, that's all good and well, but look at the Roland VariOS. That's newer than the D-50, and less usable because the software no longer runs. And this happened in our lifetimes.

@@SeverityOne Limited lifespan applies to ANY computer and software, not just Roland. How often do you buy a new smartphone, computer or OS license? But you only blame Roland, not Samsung, Apple or Microsoft. Then don't use computers lol. The Roland Cloud is a GREAT option and a great value for the money. Well, unless you're a collector.

@@Acrimonious_Snake Oh, I'm a collector alright, but I'm also a software developer. I'm quite familiar with licences. With a licence, I get new features. Unless, of course, I'd buy a subscription, but I'm not a fan of that. So, even though we get them from work, I have my own licence for Jetbrains IntelliJ IDEA, an IDE used for software development. And I barely ever use it. But the difference is that, if I stop paying the yearly licence, I no longer get upgrades, but I can still use the software. However, either you completely failed to understand my point, or you deliberately steered it in a different direction. Yes, hardware breaks down, but often it can be fixed. However, if a company goes out of business, can you still use the software? I know that you can purchase licences for Roland soft synths. My concern is that, contrary to hardware that is just there, with software you have to jump through all these hoops because it's so easy to copy. That's my problem with software licences for musical instruments.

Thanks for watching!
