- Extremely good performance control in terms of Motion Sequencing, Velocity/Ribbon assignment to any parameter, great Pitch/Filter/Amp LFO options for the mod stick......but.... The MIDI implementation could be much better.....and only a MIDI IN and OUT - no THRU? Come on Roland!

- While programming sounds you hardly ever have to use the small backlit LCD screen. Having all the controls in front of you makes it a joy to use. The manual (in true Roland style) is often cryptic, but for anyone used to using synths, its doesn't often need referring to.
The light plastic casing looks fairly robust but I wouldn't want it to risk a fall from a keyboard stand. Control knobs are a little light but feel robust enough. - Sonoridades
- Very bright and clean 'Digital' quality about it. Not the warmest VA you've ever heard but that can mean it doesn't take up too much space in a mix. One thing you have to be careful with is the fact that the output can distort fairly easily. The synth best suits dance music (I produce tech/deep-house). Due to the 'thinness' of the sound at times, Bass, Treble and Chorus knobs are provided on the front panel, as well as Delay controls (Time, Feedback, Level). There are a few types of delay available and the Chorus control can be made to change to either a Phasing, Flanging or 'Twisting' effect. There could be a more comprehensive effects selection.
- Opinión Global
- Whenever I'm about to program a new sound in the studio, the JP8000 is nearly always the one I turn to first. It perfectly suits what I play and I'd be very reluctant to sell it.

- Very satisfied with the features. Only real downfall is the number of voices it's capable of at once.

- Tweaking the predefined settings is fairly straight forward and the menus for the UI are your standards for Roland. If you know Roland gear, it's very straight forward. If not the manual helps sort out the stuff that's harder to find. The manual is deffinitely geared more towards individuals looking to use it for it's intent, aka a VA synth. There is also a technical pdf doc that can be downloaded from Roland site that covers the technicalities of how the sounds are produced. Why it was omitted from the manual I don't know.
I'll deffinitely be hauling it to gigs. It's a pretty heavy duty machine, but not as sturdy as the old metal casing used with the S-50 samplers. Having owned an S-50 years ago, i do think that over time the contacts are going to wear out (for the keys as well as the buttons for the menus). They are easy to replace (at least on the S-50) and require very little saudering. Had to contact customer service to get the manual asi bought it used. The manual was on backorder, but it was still on my door in under 3 weeks. - Sonoridades
- Solid VA synth. It does have a few issues with sound clipping and popping if you don't tweak the settings enough. That's really the only downfall to it. Deffinitely focused more on the dance/electronic genre of music, but there are enough predefined patches to work from to apply it to others (namely the strings and organ sounds) . Has a handful of selections of different types of chorus's that can be applied to sounds, as well as panning and delay/reverb. It might be nice to see a few more, but i think going with outboard processors is the way to keep everything consistent in a track.
- Opinión Global
- I think the JP8000 is going to be a long lasting item in my growing aresenal of gear. Just retro enough (VA) to be an enjoyment to use, but new enough to have the midi support that we all need. If you plug it into you midi interface you will see a constant signal coming from it for sync. I doesn't interfere with anything that i'm aware of, but i haven't found a way to use it or the menu option to turn it off.

- It is only bi timbral and is only 8 polyphony. Also the lack of distortion and reverb still bothers me, maybee a third oscilator would be nice but isn't a must.

- From the synths i have it is the most easy one to use, i think the manual covers a lot and is clearly written, they even mention how to create some type of sounds, for example how to create strings.
I have never had any problems with the JP and also never had to contact the customer support so i don't know about them, altough i think they could make more OS updates, like for example access does. - Sonoridades
- I sure like the quality off this baby, especially for string / pad type of sounds, it can also produce "dutch" trance leads very wel, the onboard fx aren't that great (no reverb, no distortion), maybee they could improve the fx section a bit and add more polyphony.
- Opinión Global
- I like this one very much, use it in all my songs. For pure inspiration this baby is the king at my home.
