I was on £80 a week living in a cheap flat with my girlfriend and yet with help from my dad I bought a brand new Roland Jupiter 8! I cannot tell you how it felt to come home from a hard day's work on a building site, walk through the door and see this gorgeous looking keyboard waiting for me to switch it on. It was absolute musical heaven. 😎

Indeed. These people have completely lost their minds. I mean, yes. The Jup 8 is a beast. But it's also 40 years old and if it breaks you can't find certain components anymore; Remember the EU banned parts that have lead inside for more than a decade already. Besides that, there are many newer synths, the Moog One, the Prophet 10 e.g. which cost a fraction and are a lot better on any level than the old Jup8. Imo a fair price for the 8 would be around 4k. Not more. But people are asking 10 times that. Totally laughable.

And to say today the 80 bucks TAL-J8 sounds exactly the same. Sometimes even better imo. Not hating on the JUP; it's a total animal and I'd get one in an instant if I found someone who would pay 40k for a testicle. But apart from that, it's just hillarious, the prices they ask; It's imo the lousiest investment you can make.

The Jupiter 8 came about at a time when synth makers were striving to make the most stable sounding, clean synths possible - in other words they were shooting for the tonal qualities that digital synths were soon able to deliver. Because of that, I find the late analog synths such as the Jupiter 8 to be overrated as *analog* synths. A CS-80 represents the epitome of an analog poly that has all the character of *analog*. The J8 never moved me as an analog synth because it sounds almost digital in its “perfection”. Given the choice, I would choose a Jupiter 4 over the 8 every time.

Actually having this keyboard a one's fingertips presents an entire different creative scape than any other form of it's off-spins, let alone rivals.. As for PERFORMANCE, nothing truly beats this keyboard's ability to create live sounds, be it mixing/fading from Upper to Lower sounds (then switching sounds to fade back & forth).. live slider fades & soundscape nuances.. had many younger generation players take a spin on this keyboard, & they all vehemently say there's no substitution for this beast. Yes, its heavy, yes its fragile, yes it defies age, but no, there is no true substitution for this analogue sound source. Thick-as-molasses, defying even digital cleanliness!
@Hoophey2 жыл бұрын
A wonderful performance instrument to have sitting in front of you for sure. Always amazed how non vintage it looks despite its age. But the sound for me is rather neutral and not unlike the Prophet in this regard which I always thought sounded bigger. But in the end, it's a great poly synth, certainly up there with the Prophets but definitely not as musical and warm as the Oberheims. The Jupiter's sound great, but Obies just make you smile as you play them. If you really need the Roland sound neutrality, for the $ I'd go with the MKS-80 Rev 5 which sounds about 98% the same but has a better lower end, and is more stable and reliable, has midi built in and more storage.

I disagree that the JP8 was the fattest synth, the MemoryMoog was, MKS80 and the P5 was also fatter than the JP8. The JP8 was flexible easy to program and sat in a mix very well (as it was not so fat). Also they were the most reliable synth I just switched one on after 23 years in a flightcase and it is making decent sounds it needs a bit of work but that is amazing!.

The high quality componentry contribute to all the above attributes, so that the instrument is complex, powerful, sounds great, all the sliders a knobs feel great, and it's rarer and rarer, so that the exclusivity part plays a big part in the price. Not to mention the creed in '80's albums and such.

Memorymoog is the fattest polysynth of that era in my opinion, but I prefer Roland filters to the Moog filter, which is harsh and gritty. Also the split and dual keyboard modes on the JP-8 are a huge advantage over the 6-voice single keyboard mode of the MM. Given a choice without considering cost, the JP-8 is a no-brainer over the MM. However, for less money I'd prefer an OB-8 plus the Super Jupiter module (MKS-80). I guess it comes down to personal taste and the kinds of sounds I like designing.

Not Real VCO's however.

Jupiter-8 requires the professional infrastructure to sounds like the Universe. When one buys the JP-8, it is assumed that one already has a top notch mixing console, with many outboard effectors, compressors, and such. The same goes for the DX7. Since the D-50 though, things changed quite a bit. The D-50 sounds like the Universe by itself.

Man this really shows just how piss poor the System 8 was in regards to Dynamic Range, Drift, warmth, etc. Now from everything that I am hearing here and in other videos, the X is better than the original at everything but some of the bass stuff, and even that is minimal difference at best. The X is the best thing that Roland has ever done, and since they are a digital company to them, Kudos to them for finally releasing a digital synth worthy of being better than the original!

For all intents and purposes the Jup8 and System 8 sound identical kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWqqhYKumNaoa8U The system 8 has a condition setting so you can 'age' the sound.

@@antonystannard3333 Ahh, no offense but it does not. The System 8 has no dynamic range at all, and it's extremely harsh. The EQ's and overall output are brickwalled much in the same sense that EDM does to master their tracks. Also the drifting of the ACB vs the real circuit are completely different. The only thing the "age" does is distort waveforms slightly and add noise and a slight bit of audible distortion so the overall output sounds more aged. While this seems like a great idea, it's just not what it should have been. The new Zen engine on the other hand is far from this. It has fixed the Dynamic Range to be a lot more natural, and its drift settings can really make it sound like a real aged Jupiter. Anyone that owns the real deal that I have talked to say the new Zen Engine stuff is pretty much spot on while they all thought the ACB stuff was garbage, mainly for the same reasons I just pointed out. With all that said, Roland in my opinion (and same as everyone I have talked to that owns the original Jup 8) with Zen have finally properly cloned their old circuits, and if you have a System 8 I urge you to try out the Roland Cloud Zenology stuff, as its the exact same setup you get with the JupX. I can't wait for them to clone more hardware with this tech as it's about the most natural analog VSTs that I have yet to ever hear.

@@antonystannard3333 Lol, was just explaining the real difference between the System 8 and real hardware. Rolands new tech that is not available on the System 8 is lightyears better and actually almost sounds like the real hardware. :)

@@lorenmorgan1931 you do know that acb is Roland's most accurate recreation of old gear including jp8? Abm is less processor hungry but as a result a less accurate representation. To your ears it may sound better but so far as an accurate recreation of old synths acb is the more accurate.
