JD-800 Step by Step sound design - just like when I was teaching it!

[@michaelhricko]

Fantastic video - you have a gift for teaching. Thank you very much!

[@Nu-trix]

Thanks.

[@jeri7320]

the JD-800 was the first Synth that teached me on sound analogy. i learned from it from zero. it introduced and opened me to science world of synthesis. unexplainably unbelievable.

[@ToneDepthofficial]

Oh wow I remember you teaching me how to use the hardware version back in 1996. Thx for the flashback buddy hope you’re doing great 🙏❤️

[@Nu-trix]

Happy to bring back memories! I’m good. I hope you are doing great also!

[@gazcbm]

This is an amazing tutorial, thank you!. Would you consider doing more JD800 sound design videos?

[@patrikkozjak-lesicki8669]

thanks for doing this one, and for not cutting out anything. showing the thought-process every step of the way and all the trial and error that goes into something like this, its not something that many channels do, so thanks for that :)

[@Nu-trix]

Happy that you like it.

[@vytispuronas]

INCREDIBLE! I knew the JD-800 was one of the coolest digital synths, but I didn't know it was THIS cool. Your homework idea is so inspiring! Love your teaching style. Thumbs up!

[@theaudioeng]

Great fun, and honestly very informative in how to dig in to the classic JD-800! Have 2x of these, and the awesome 990 rack with Strings Ensemble & Vintage Synths expansion welded in to it - untouchable time in digital synth history even today 😎👍🎹🎶🇬🇧💥🍻

[@gretareinarsson7461]

I still have my JD800. Will probably never let it go.

[@Mat-q5z]

Thank you so much, now having seen this, I start understanding the JD-800. What a marvellous machine. All the best!

[@OCEANSINSPACE]

This is a nice creative synth plan. Way to teach !

[@crhkrebs]

Nu-Trix, thanks so much for this entertaining yet informative lesson. I have the hardware version of this wonderful synth but always love to learn new tricks on it ( See what I did there? Ya, don’t quit my day job) Also, love the TR-8s videos!

[@Interdimensions]

That's EXACTLY the video I needed. Just bought Boutique and this is my first digital and wavetable synth. I like factory presets and sound presets that people sell but was a little confused how do I even start making my own patches. After watching this video I have some ideas how to start. Extended ADSR is a bit confusing too. I will definitly go watch Your deep dive video too. Thanks!

[@AboveEmAllProduction]

Hi! Love your videos on my fav synth! Do you have a video going over exactly how the envelopes work? And how to emulate simple adsr.

[@AboveEmAllProduction]

maybe i should clarify, ive tried and tried, and cannot just get them to behave like normal adsr. and if so im not sure how =)

[@crhkrebs]

I agree, that would be great. Roland likes making very complex Envelope Generators that go beyond the typical ADSR. Same with the D-50. You really couldn’t do this sound with a normal ADSR.

[@lyh1]

I am using the jd08, I use 1 part for synth, and another part using 4 layer each for a drum tone in a analog synth way. And it become a groove box. Like the pitch env that can make a shimmer reverb like sound.

[@DanButsu]

Haha... amazing. I remember doing that synth lab, but on the JP-8000!!! I was so amazed when I got it working with one note :)

[@Nu-trix]

Good memories!! Good memories!!

[@Nu-trix]

Did I teach you at the time?

[@Nu-trix]

I think we did it with the JV-2080 also.

[@DanButsu]

@@Nu-trix ah sadly no, it was Ruff. You were on to bigegr things at the school then ;) and I'll have to dust my old 2080 off and give it a try!!!

[@Nu-trix]

Time is flying!

[@joshuasimpson2540]

I wish it was possible to pan the sounds pre effects. Is there a way to do that? I have one and it would make it so huge !

[@Maschinestorm]

[@Nu-trix]

Good one!

[@ursdubel3585]

Broski producing Starwars episode 764 on a synth.. Crazy.. I thought a synth is a pimped piano not a NASA control panel 👍👍👍

[@gmansshadow]

L'il guy: Are we there yet? lol

[@Nu-trix]

Lol

[@lousekoya1803]

Talked to my friend today who has a beautiful Studio and he bought $750 worth of patches 6 months ago uncludig the JD800 and to day it said on his screen that cloud didn't recognize him and even after trying and trying to speak with Roland , he has a feeling he's talking to a robot and gtes answered everything from dumb to we don't care answers so don't buy no online cloud products from Roland , they have the worst customer service.

[@Nu-trix]

I know Roland teams seems to answer quickly when contacted from inside Roland Cloud account. Did you try that?

[@thejollyjoker187]

This video was very disappointing for me, because I thought you are going to show all the things you talk about in the beginning on an ACTUAL jd-800. There was nothing in the title to prepare me for the huge crash-landing when I saw you open that BS softsynth window. Please, don't waste people's time and rectify the omission of the word "software" in your title.

[@Nu-trix]

Like it or not , the sound design tips I offer in this video are good for the soft and hard JD-800.
