7:24 A tiny duck just at the level of the water gasping for air. I was looking for that the other day.

@Hairibar 9 лет назад

OK I like this guy I want him in more demos, I love how casual he is about it

@andertons 9 лет назад

We hope to do more of these videos... What products would you like to see?

@esmailkhalili7149 8 лет назад

Kudos to what you said about "professional" keyboards. Thats all rubbish. Like you said, the microkorg or other similar "low" to "mid" range keyboards sometimes have fantastic sounds if you know what to do with them. At the end of the day its all about the artist behind the keyboard and what they do with it.

@Psychlist1972 9 лет назад

Easily one of the best synth demo presentations I've seen. Loved it. Funny as hell too.

@andertons 9 лет назад

Thanks... Its hard to know how long people are prepared to watch something for whilst getting a full review in.

@andertons 9 лет назад

***** YOU LEFT CAPS LOCK ON!

@Psychlist1972 9 лет назад

***** Whenever I see stuff in all caps, I read it in a DP Gumby voice. YOU ARE CRAZY. OH! MY BRAIN HURTS!. :) Makes the Internet a much more amusing place.

@MIDERA 9 лет назад

I agree. Very nicely presented. Wish I could be that nonchalant when I was in front of a camera, or people.

@Psychlist1972 9 лет назад

***** Really? I didn't notice a single poop joke.

@trevhowarth7216 7 лет назад

Until now, as a newbie to synth purchase, I've been finding my slog through video reviews really, really taxing - they're all sooooo boring and technical, presuming I already know what they're short handing. BUT this one is so accessible, and entertaining to boot, that I might buy one of these just for the watching experience. It looks great, and the demo was exactly what I needed to see - a clear scoping of what it does, how it does it and what you can do with the noodling you'll get. Great job, thanks.

@DrDavis77 9 лет назад

Brilliant - even for a guitar nerd! This guy needs his own show.

@@andertons Haha look at Jack now 🎂

@vaspers 8 лет назад

Fantastic demo. I like my MicroKorg and MicroBrute, but this JD-Xi blows them away. I bought it a few weeks ago and am having a lot of fun with it.

@JackTheDeergal 7 лет назад

That man loves that minor blues scale, lol. I love it to, it's funky

@efmusic9815 7 лет назад

creamy, some might say

@DJWOLFLIVE 6 лет назад

The sounds that come out of this synth will blow your mind! I just got one over the weekend and it’s fun af to play on!!!

@gurtana 9 лет назад

The expression, i.e. the "widdling" around the 20 minute mark was epic. Well done, great skill and good demo.

@CyanBlackflower 8 лет назад

I just purchased one of these. And I must say I am VERY pleased with it. - I tried many others that were on display at Long & McQuade in Canada. This one is probably the most versatile, and best bang for buck. Or pretty close to it. It can be interfaced with most music Comp programs - Ableton Live - And can therefore do almost ANYTHING, that one can expect from devices costing much more. This device is quite user friendly.

@ILaxative 6 лет назад

Cyan Blackflower is it possible to have let’s say a compressor on digital Synth 1 but distortion on digital synth 2? Every time I change the effect on part 1 it changes to part 2 and analog..I want to control both separately. Any help would be appreciated.

@Mkjackary 9 лет назад

Always love when jack does these videos, keep it up

@macktheinterloper 9 лет назад

Fantastic video, a very comprehensive and detailed presentation. Jack's certainly got a knack for it and I hope he does more videos in the future. He's an absolute blast to watch and only when the vid ended did I realise that it was nearly half an hour long. I now have an unexplained urge to buy a synth. If I only knew someone in my family that played one ;) Kudos mate, you're a natural.

@jittisoolt5927 8 лет назад

I believe I can fly... This is by far one of the most entertaining yet perfectly relevant gear reviews I have ever seen. I actually rewatched it several times for the entertainment value alone. Jack - brilliant is you.

@natioffline 3 года назад

Thank you very much for your review, testing the vocoder at: 23:46 and the various examples for this synth 16:20

@marike1100 9 лет назад

Nice jazzy blowing, probably the best demo so far of the analogue mono synth section. Pity that we have to wait until March 30 here in the US to buy it, but that's what they call a "first world problem".

“Today I’ll be demoing the .......” (duh I see it in the description) “ here’s the on/off button...” (don’t care) here’s the outputs and MIDI in” “here’s the MIDI OUT” where’s the exit button. Yeah this guy does it right.

this guys reviews are always fun. thanks for making it entertaining

@sirjellybeans1st19 2 года назад

By keeping your finger pressed on the Shift Button while playing a pattern it enables it to play single key Progression. Also you can change the Bar length by going into the Menu Set up

@fullconsciousness1448 9 лет назад

Finally someone with the exact spontaneous sexy touch in the synth review area, I guess in Anderton's all do it right, but you just became the killer one. It was like watching two videos in one, retaining information from both, very clever and interesting. Good luck!

@tuomastalvi9470 8 лет назад

@westeringsun7342 6 лет назад

JACK!!! That was one of the most entertaining and still informative vids I've ever seen on YT! Thanks and please start your own channel. Woody is much-loved on Woody's Piano Shack channel (had to clarify due to your opening comment about your slacks) as a personality and I'm sure you'd do well if you went solo. Thanks for making me smile. My JD-Xi should be here in a week or so.

@555ontario 9 лет назад

LOL... totally agree, this is a great demo. If Jack is a salesman at that store, I would not be surprised if he wasn't the store's top sales person with that kinda' personality. Unless I missed it, I might have stressed that the analog synth section is monophonic but one might not expect it to be otherwise at that price. Well done, sir!

@Matt-bo7kb 4 года назад

The Absolute BEST synth review video I have EVER had the pleasure to see!!!! Thank you SOOOOO much !!!!! Hands up down and all around!!!! Its what the hell I'm talking about AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! Hell to the YI-ZAH!!!

@ogasi1798 9 лет назад

Radically funny, love his solo and his performers face, Tibbs take note lolololoololllll Great demo Andertons give this guy a beer, oh and a haircut ;-)

@tommychappell6359 7 лет назад

I love this a lot!! the JD-XI is brilliant, not just that its so much fun!! particularly when you compare it to the JD XA (which is still great) but this is much better. the price is right, the amount of sounds you can play with, the vocoder. i mean I think thats what a synth should be built on, versatility and fun!!

@gleannmhuire 3 года назад

@theorgandude 9 лет назад

another good review from the soul man. must be something wrong with that vocoder or the settings, sounded crap on your demo but other youtube vids sounded very good.

@TripleBProduktionz 9 лет назад

does this machine have its own interface? suppose I wanted to edit my already recorded sequence how can I go back and tweak or add on sweeps from the hardware to my DAW?

@fnersch 9 лет назад

Great demo. Please do one on the Roland JD-XA. I just ordered one yesterday and will need training. Presently using an old Prophet 10 (which is fun to play).

@fnersch 9 лет назад

***** I plan to add a Prophet 6 in due time. It will be interesting to try out the crossover features in the JD-XA in a single box configuration. Being an unusual instrument, I was attracted to it.

The steps with filter part in octave shifting are digital - you can hear digital bits jump... so first part are not totally analog...

@thomas3463 9 лет назад

I am looking for a compact hardware synth to bring to college. I currently have a Novation mininova, but it doesn't have many knobs which kind of defeats the purpose of hardware. Tell me more about the digital section, does it have wavetables, FM?

@woodswalker88 4 года назад

I have the JDxi and it's a great li'l box, there are very few sequencers with keys that you can play along...but it has one HUGE problem...if you put it in MIDI slave mode, it will not play its sequences!! I use a Synthstrom Deluge as a master clock, and everything else has to sync to it. I wonder if anyone else cares about this problem & if Roland would ever fix it?
