Made My First Beat with The Jupiter - X 🔥 Is it worth Getting??

[@digitalhillbilly8863]

Bought a Jupiter XM. Some menu diving, but it is a great partner for an MPC. Loved it so much that I bought the big brother, Jupiter X, and kept the Xm.

[@legitimatefrenzy]

Honestly all you need a Juno or Jupiter x and you are set. With a sampler of course

[@John-lv6uj]

That’s how we did it back in the day. From Church to Church. We were playing all day and night on Sundays and through the week

[@ellamiss4613]

I love my Jupiter X!

[@dantecarter57]

Some quick heat! Definitely making me wanna go dawless even more with this vid!!

[@drjonado]

it's about time SOMEONE does a video like this...for the longest time I thought most tones I could get out of this unit were weird video game tones! geez. I would be so nice if someone would actually put a video showing all on board presets then we would have an idea what we have to work with. thanks for this video!

[@kenzoblytheproducertv4934]

Now nothing against vsts again,they sound great for that in the box sound.But if you cant hear the difference in that full warmth sound hardware brings you need a new set of ears,its just the sound i love and many others as well…Dope video Bolo💪🏾🫡

[@chuckiebomaye]

Amen

[@stephenfrancis303]

That is so true. But going analog to digital and record to in the box like protools, the synth vs vst in a mix is pretty damn close. Where a synth like that shines is recording into tape. When we did my first demo it was on to 2 inch tape in the late 90s. Or going from a synth to direct to amp to speakers is amazing

[@lugiakane470]

cost effective very close to the original keyboard which can cost over $15k

[@60_beats]

BOLOOOO, man thank you so much G, Ive been waiting for this Jam!!! I will get Bolo kit for sure!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@ribahonthebeat]

Literally just got the XM yesterday. Crazy timing and great video as always.

[@mac651000]

Tremendous demonstration of this super board. I have a System 8, which I maintain, sound for sound, is unbeatable with its ACB technology. But, it cannot compete with the complexity and versatility of the Jupiter. I enjoyed the show.

[@John-lv6uj]

[@georgecoles7268]

analog is a myth

[@LeeOnTheTrack]

@@triplebeam23 we have the x and a fantom, the same patches sound wayyyy better on the jupiter "virtual analog" than the fantom pcm for whatever reason. the "modeling" or whatever is def. closer to analog.

[@eman0828]

I'm a huge fan of Roland. When you buy anything Roland, you know it's going to last. Their quality control is steller unlike Akai. In fact all my midi controllers are all Roland such as my A-88 Mk1 88 key controller and my Tier 2 controller Roland/Edirol PCR-800 that's actually 16 years old that still in mint condition. I have the Fantom-XR and the Integra-7 which is the modern XV-5080 slash Jupiter 80.

[@goldenlion8123]

DOPE SET-UP..

[@eman0828]

@@goldenlion8123 Thanks. I own about 5 Sound Modules and my MOTIF ES6 keyboard as well but I don't use the MOTIF keyboard anymore that's in the closet since I replaced it with the MOTIF Rack-ES. I have the E-MU MO Phatt, E-MU Proteus 2000 as well along with the Korg Triton and Triton Extreme software. That's virtually every sound of the 90s and early 2000s era of Hip Hop and R&B since my Integra-7 also has all the JV series sounds from thr legendary JV-1080 and JV-2080.

Thanks!

[@NimbleX-MC]

Yes I have definitely thought of the Juno X. It looks and sounds really great. It is a great option. The cool thing is you can also hook it up to an MPC and play the new instruments in the MPC. I have my MPCX SE hooked up to my Waldorf Iridium Keyboard version and it is so fun to work with. Thank you for the content, great as always and your video style is really enjoyable.

[@Locsta_Beats]

Still got a Korg X3, Triton Ex, Roland Fantom and now Korg Kross 2 and coming next is the Kronos...I still got a Tascam 414 and Korg D1600 , gotta have my hardware....Gotta have that Analog

[@ellamiss4613]

Will you show how you use it with your MPC? I have an MPC as well.

[@newgravityfilms]

You're a crazy man, I love it! Great channel

[@GrayGhostDog1]

Hate to get all technical, but this keyboard is NOT analog... it's a digital synthesizer. Roland terms it an analog-modeling synthesizer... the individual parts are models of the Jupiter 8, Juno-106, SH-101, XV-5080 patches, RD piano patches, TR-808/909 drum sounds, and more packed inside this keyboard. I think it is a fantastic board, but I noticed that many don't agree with my assessment. I own the more compact version, Jupiter Xm, due to limited workspace.

[@eman0828]

A huge percentage if not all of those sounds are in the the Integra-7. I have the Integra-7 in my rack as it's like an XV-5080 on steroids. Most digital synths are Rompler PCM based while some physical modeling with DSP.

[@flawlessenterprises7849]

BoLo I haven’t seen a turntable in your setup. I may be wrong. If not why you don’t show a video of you chopping a sample?

[@its.stacygabriel]

I've owned all the originals and I sold them all because they sounded the exact same as my JPX... for those who say analog this analog that. It's by far my favourite synth to sit behind and play. If you ever have the luxury to play this thing you'll see why. Also the sexiest synth out next to the gold version(not for sale) or the baby blue Super 6 IMO.. so for those who play LIVE...love to see it.

[@BoloDaProducer]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@JENewJazzPerspective1]

I don’t think it’s possible that you owned “all” of the originals but maybe you did and I’m wrong

[@its.stacygabriel]

@@JENewJazzPerspective1 never owned a Jupiter-8 but if the others matched up that good i'm going to assume it sounds the same and avoid the 30grand price tag for one.

[@drfangaz-pronouncedlikefan4019]

“Man that thing was heavy” (and the facial expression)😂😂😂

[@billmay7364]

I purchased Jupiter X when they first came out. I was Hesitant to be quite honest. I'm old school analog guy in the schools of Moog Oberhiems Prophets and Mellotron. But I've learned having a open mind . Jupiter X is not Jupiter 8 but for the price its so close and in some ways superior. I think Roland did a great job. The only other Roland I have is Roland juno 6 which is vintage and I absolutely love it still. Thanks for input. I agree it takes time to dail it in but its worth time and investment.

[@MiriAstro]

This a dope board. I have a feeling some phenomenal stand-alone goodness gonna get released at this year’s NAMM hopefully the successor to the Kronos

[@rahim4411]

[@fkeita67]

In my opinion, Vst's can become a replacement for any real pianos as the people simulating them are very good programmers, and so they know what it will sound like and you can just buy a midi keyboard that will synthesize anything. Along with fx features to make it sound out of the box.

[@BoloDaProducer]

💪🏾💪🏾 I feel ya! Only problem I see would be VSTs have CPU and RAM issues. If your computer can’t handle it, that’s where the problem start. Plus, I hate Latency.

[@jltbk5420]

Been having my 👁 on that Jupiter X for some time now. Already have the Fantom 6 and Prophet and thought the Fantom already could create the sounds that the X could make. I think I'm wrong, this board sounds rich. Did you add any post processing to the sound after the video was done? Will definitely have to add this to my next list of gear to purchase. Also does the Fantom have the Rx channel feature you mentioned in the video this is a issue I've been looking for a answer for since I bought this board.

[@BoloDaProducer]

I added some stereo widening and sound toys micro shift on half timed synth but on original synth I keep everything the same. And yea the Rx channel feature is in Fantom

Trash? I mean Roland stuff last almost for ever. Plus software becomes obsolete each time you upgrade your OS and Computer hardware. hardware you own it for life. I'm not a fan of software subscriptions. The oldest peice of hardware in my hardware collection os the Proteus 2000 that's 24 years old. It's Neary maxed out with ROM cards as they are becoming more rare.

[@tuneunleashed]

@@eman0828yeah it’s trash. Hardware becomes obsolete when the update stops. Again I’d rather go software cause a computer can do more than hardware can. It’s facts we live in a new age. The amount of money you spend on that board is 40 years of the Roland cloud with better sounds think about it. These are the same sounds as the Zencore pro
