Roland Jd XI Sounds 

Press and hold the shift button to progress chords on the key with one finger of the other hand

wich is ? perdon my ignorance.

tHANKS SO MUCH!

Which one would you buy....?

This is a lot of synth and a good choice, but the MicroKorg requires a lot less menu diving if you want to make your own patches.

pads and basses sounds even more incredible in person

Zod

I have looked everywhere for a printed list of these sounds. Not even listed in the manual that I could find.

not when it is a popular rompler

$500 for this beast is not expensive. Compare that to a $2000 prophet rev2 which doesn't have nearly the same versatility

@@mli3083 true

MC-707 is the next level ;)

+Magnus Cholok Mauser presety są zrobione bardzo nowocześnie.

+muzykujkropkacom właśnie, trochę za szybko napisałem ten komentarz (zasugerowałem się pierwszymi demonstrowanymi dźwiękami, które po powtórnym przesłuchaniu też nie brzmią wcale retro). Kurczę zastanawiam się czy tak trudno w dzisiejszych czasach znaleźć (nowy) syntezator nadający się do tworzenia takiej muzyki, czy po prostu ja nie potrafię szukać. Bylibyście w stanie polecić coś dla fana brzmień z lat 80s?

+Magnus Cholok Mauser Wbijaj na nasze forum na portalu. Pogadamy :)

+muzykujkropkacom łał, super, wbijam :) dzięki za sugestię

Yeah :)

Best piano ever,^,

Viv Rose pignose amp.

Hahaha that is a dark cloud

analog brass i believe

Haha yup good ear 👂

They're the same price in the US, too. I played both today at Guitar Center and found the Roland JD Xi much more fun to play. Its pre-set sounds are vast, familiar (if you're looking for classic synth sounds), and convenient. The Minilogue, while more customizable, has a much bigger learning curve, which proved frustrating to me (a novice when it comes to synths). However, the look and feel of the Minilogue are far superior: bigger keys and sturdier, less fussy construction. In the end, I couldn't make up my mind and ended up walking out with neither synth. :P

Init patches exist, it is at the end of each category for each of the four parts. There is no lack of "synthesis capabilities" with any modern roland except digital pianos like FP30, they are all standard-ish subtractive synths, but the romplers like Juno-DS are more complex, allowing for a far wider range of sound design capability

Borat?

The JDXi isn’t too great at that, but there are extra sounds on the Roland Axial site and some of those are EPs. If you want a compact EP sound, buy a Reface CP - I love mine, it sounds great.

@@andysw3 yeah the CP sounds amazing in the right hands

keyboards category in the JD-Xi

Why would you want it as a midi controller

It does, but...

There's a preset called vox voice or something that sound like a chorus

sure, but beware the junk keybed, akin to the Mininova's and most mini MIDI controllers

@Жан Клон What would you recommend instead?

Why? I have been considering the Gaia. It's powerful.

so nice

i know in 3 years late but it's trying to mimic the sound of the Fender Rhodes. It's pretty close but not quite the real thing.

+Music Resources/Royalty Free Channel I have an XL+, this Roland one offers much more sounds and it has an step sequencer, but keys on Microkorg XL are much better

IMO, original microKORG and XL sound infinitely better

Infinitely...nah,better ...nah ,different ..yes,but not better.Have both JD XI and original microKorg,both great ,but different animals,both have their uses to compliment each other.JD XI has that classic Roland synth sounds,and microKorg gets more vintage sounding because of the MS2000 engine.

This can do alot more

My Microkorg just crapped out and I always chose it over this juat because it was what I was used to. Will be getting to know the JD XI better now!

make a sync sweep patch, it's quite simple, the JD-Xi's synth engine isn't very complex versus MOXF, FA-06, Krome EX, etc.

Your music is great on soundcloud

I think the JD XI has a drum selection so you can play live drums with the keyboard the others don't as far as i can tell. also the JDXI is a hybrid so you have analogue synth capabilities and all the digital side as well. Maybe some other things but that is what makes this one a choice for me. Eventually....

@@apbosh1 thank you very much friend, I looked for videos on the juno ds, they are less than the videos on the jd xi, but I think I take the juno, from the little I have seen it seems a good choice

Sync sweep 🤓👍

Chris Nova777 I own one and yes you can set it to triplets. I use this thing a lot with my piano and it's pretty fun.

JD-Xi

your hands

this!

I’ve got them both. I bought the Minilogue because I thought the synth had a superior sound to my jdxi (I think it was just a better keyboard amp at GC though) 1 year later and I only break out the Minilogue when I really want to expand the resonate capabilities on a synth line. I’d use the minilogue if I wanted to really make a unique synth sound, however the entire jdxi concept has exponentially more possibilities (if you want to expand on the sound you can always chain in pedals) and is easy to blend to throw virtually any sound needed. Also I’ve already sent my minilogue in to be worked on and I barely use it. I throw that jdxi around pretty carelessly though. The minilogue is really great (for those who aren’t super rough on their gear) though if you teach your self as you go- it has a built in sound wave display that lets you see how your adjustments impact your sound live. If I had to take one with me, I’d always choose the jdxi. I love the cinsoft sound in the pads section.

probably "sweet chord" or something, a bunch of Roland keyboards have it

+hiitsrandy tzn?

Maciej Zapolski fajny, ale jeśli masz duże klawisze to na live szybkie wejście na mini klawisz może namieszać w mózgu :)

Love Walks In

Joe Bollocks Exactly, thank you!!

It's the piano knowledge

It sounds like "house organ 1" could be 2 but that's right after

Hi. it sounds like M1 organ from korg, everywhere around in milleniums house music

Comentario random luego de 6 años... Espero que lo hayan logrado. Aunque no tengo ese, no se ve complejo de usar

I was going to buy the microkorg or the mininova until I found this new locally for $300. best $300 I've ever spent. It is so easy to use and the sequencer is so great. Get this and don't look back

Lucky you it's impossible to get it for that money in my country they are like 500$

I'd be happy with 500$. Here in Canada they are going for 700$

That depends on what you want it for. This has a sequencer and drum sounds so you could actually make a whole beat on this by itself. The other two do not have a sequencer or drum sounds, though if you know even a little about sound design you could make percussion like sounds with them. In my opinion the microkorg sounds the best out of the three but that is totally subjective and your ears may not feel the same.

thanks man, I will go for the microkorg as i'm new to the synth world and looking for a cheap addition (so far I've purchased a couple of pocket operators, a volca keys, and a reface CP). I play guitar and bass normally, so just looking for something to add a few sounds, nd I agree that the microkorg has more in line with what I think i'm looking for

Yes - I have done this.

@@JimGall Could you explain shortly? Please, you plugged the midi out to the synth in?

@@manelvidiella8004 Yes midi controller midi out to jd-xi midi in

System 1-m ! No questions That's if you've got a midi keyboard already The system 1 is cool but not as cool as the new rack version IMO

Charl D. Source It depends. What genre are you interested? Modern sounds with analog touch and power my choice is JDXi. But if you want analog ways of doing basses , leadsand no chords, maybe de system one.

Halux Thank you. I guess I'll just have to save for both lol

It’s just some improv

Lisztomaniac it's rhodes piano

This synth better. Its has digital and analog oscillators and more potenciometers and regulators. MicroKorg is a toy, I don't like this

+od3 can you tell me more as I thinking of buying One. Are they worth the money?

The microkorg, as far as i'm aware is more built on premade sounds that you tweak in a minor way, this is based on a more DIY approach of starting from the bottom up, creating your own sounds. with the microkorg you're more or less limited to the sounds they provide. Hope this helps, feel free to ask if you need anymore info! :-)

matt sweatgast Thanks a lot man are you a musician yourself?

+Xander more or less... hahaha.

it has a passable acoustic piano, yes, not in the same league as VR-09B, FA-06, or even Juno-DS in a live venue, it won't matter, your playing skills will be far more important, and preferably with an external 61 or 88 key keyboard of any kind hooked up

A powered PA speaker or two.

Thanks mate. Any Roland, behringer or Marshall?.....

Any powered PA cab from Yamaha, Mackie, JBL, QSC, ETC.. Or if playing at home some active studio monitors like the Yamaha HS series or KRK Rokits.

@@justinlaboy6837 You are correct, Sir 👍

nah

The only one you need 🤫

Unmute your volume...

You shouldn't speak about yourself that way.

nicca you sound super weak.

Had mine for over a year too, white edition. I ended up using it as a midi controller for FL Studio, the sounds sounds so plastic and it feels very plastic, I regret buying it :/ I also got the Korg Microkorg XL+, It sounds so much better and feels much better, too bad it only has 8 polyphony and that you can't control every parameter in real time...

Noir Angel What do you mean by "the sounds are plastic" I don't understand that term. 🤔

Not true.This synth is a real gem.I always use external fx,so I send it trough my Timeline and Bigsky and I have endless possibilities.Just give it a try it's a super fun and great sounding synth.

@@solounusuariomas5574 the build and look affected how he perceived the sound to an exaggerated extent, JD-Xi only sounds "like plastic" if you program a typical EDM "plastic pluck", which is dependent on the filter, resonance, and amp EG, but JD-Xi doesn't make plastic plucks quite as good as Massive or Serum/Vital (or Juno-DS), but it can otherwise make any EDM pluck except funky wavetable or FM plucks

A Saharty i did and love it itsa great sounding synth.If you cannot make a good mussic with it then shame on you

love mine

Very plastic sounds!!!!!

Maybe so, but this would be aimed at musicians rather than "producers".

There is not a free soft synth in existence that sounds better than ANY Roland analog synth or ANY analog synth in the world. Not to mention the live performance capabilities, vocoder, TR-Rec drum machine, etc. But if your are happy with some crappy digital sounding VST that will be a digital doorstop in 2 years time, good for you.

+Altodon A exactly

stinger TV I just played a JD-Xi at Sam Ash, and it sounds really excellent. Fat analogue bass and synth lead tones, nice FX matrix, and the few Super Natural patches I auditioned sounded very nice indeed. But the world is full of bedroom musicians, VST fans and newbies who don't appreciate good hardware and think synthesis started with Massive.
