I think Arturia actually sells a VST plugin version of the Jupiter 8. Granted: not the SAME thing, however, I purchased their OBXaV synth, and I would say the sound is about 90% the same... considering the plugin costs 160$ as compared to, what, 10K+? Worth it.

@@jimbotron70, Yes, I totally agree with you. It's totally staggering. Which explains the flight of its price,on the second-hand market it is rarity, Only 2000 copies were made, and few models circulate today. I want to say that it is better to fall back on the latest models of Roland (Jupiter X, Juno X ...) even if we lose heat and grain. With the new models, fewer breakdowns specific to the old models, no more waiting to heat the electronic components for a good quarter of an hour... This is what I tell myself for reason to keep (French expression). Thank you for responding to my comment, it made me happy. :)

No one complained about the "non-ANALOG" sounds on any of Hanz Zimmer's soundtracks. All hardware synths coming out now are only trying to approach the capability of VSTs available, and Zebra2 is the best of both worlds. Capable of modern sounds and also fabulous vintage vibe.

@drkam6 5 лет назад

That is why I will never sell my vintage synthesizers :) Got the majority of them between 2000-2010 (it was still a good time to grab them), and they are increasing in value every passing year... these days I feel like living surrounded by a museum. The best time was before Mark Vail published his "Vintage Synthesizers" book (1994), displaying prices of $600-$800 for a Jupiter-8. After that, and the arrival of dance-techno, all hell broke loose. Some decent machines started to appear in the early 2000's, like the Alesis Andromeda A6 but unfortunately it was too buggy. I needed to have a master keyboard on top of my Hammond C-3, so I went first with a Kurzweil K2000, then an Emulator E4K, then the Andromeda. Returned the Andromeda and grabbed a Jupiter 6, which was nice but not enough voices. Then a JP-8 suddenly appeared, sold the JP-6 for $800 and grabbed the 14-bit JP-8 for about $1500. That was around 2003 I think. Fifteen years later, my JP-8 is still going strong, now sitting on its own tier as it's been replaced from being on top of the Hammond by a Yamaha EX5 (another monster machine). Advice, if I may: In this day and age, NEVER SELL any piece of gear. Keep it and take utmost care of it. You never know if it's going to become a highly sought after piece of gear in the next 10 years...

@FrancisMaxino 5 лет назад

That's so true, I have an analog Roland Microcomposer that really to me was just a piece of outdated junk (still is to my mind except for the fact it can create seismic disturbances with subsonic frequencies that are inaudible but make walls shake). Someone gave it to me for nothing and now they fetch more than a thousand US bucks ! Ridiculous...

@johnezrascheirman3455 4 года назад

I repaired two of the first ones in the US in the underground below Portland Music Co. in the early 80's. The schematics were photocopies labeled in Katana before there was a service manual. I spent a bunch of time on the tuning of one of them before we figured out that the spec for the computer tuned analog oscillators was + or - 3 cents. The customer could hear that, and by the time we found out it was in spec, I could too. This synth got me an all access pass to Oregon Jam 82. This was used on the Journey video too.

They probably werent pushed by management to get the product out the door. My sister works in quality control and they constantly try to push software out quickly with bugs, and then release service back updates. It's the world. Make money, get the money. Cell phones, fast computers, iphones, etc didnt exist in the 70s and 80's, everything moves too fast these days to put lots of time and care into product development and instead in our race to market we try to skimp and produce as cheaply as possible. They had time to care about the product they were making and put their heart and soul into developing it. In the 70s the engineers had time to call up the musician and say hey come down and listen to this new sound and tell me does it sound good? There was time for the engineers to rework, and rework and rework the same sound until it was right. In fact, they were designing the equipment for musicians who had good ears. Even though the hardware and software back then was primitive, it's all about the sound in the end.

I've had one of these since 1983 it's my favorite synth of all time.

I never liked Howard Jones. What was wrong with me?

The roland jupiter-8 are the 80's on a synthetizer

@pappapiccolino9572 2 года назад

Iva Davies, from the Australian band Icehouse, said that back in the 80's these were so popular and were everywhere. Once grunge came in the early 90's, he said nobody wanted these synths and you couldn't even give them away. Fast forward 20 years, and the cycle of love, followed by rejection, followed by love again (which we call fashion) has seen these surge in popularity and of course price.

Closest I had to this was the Alesis Andromeda A6 but the Roland was years ahead of its time. Thanks for sharing

i finally made the choice to use one synth and one synth only... albeit a vst... and i chose the jupiter 8v... and man it's one of the best decisions ive ever made.. both in terms of forcing me to learn one synth... and limiting me so i can actually make music.. as opposed to feed a plugin addiction... now I can say i really can appreciate this video on a new level.

Roland has such classic sounds. I wish I had enough space for a ton of vintage synths!

I can't stop watching this video it's so good

Roland had pulled all the stops for this synth, and it shows big time. I just wish that they would do a modern re-issue of it, a faithful re-issue with real discrete electronic components (although it could be SMD) and none of that ACB modeling crap. Great review/presentation, thanks for sharing !

@AdamTheAd-vanc3d 6 лет назад

AlainHubert I can see behringer finding a market for a clone if that is legally possible. They would sell by the freighter load.

@SPAZZOID100 6 лет назад

AlainHubert would cost $5,000

@noiselabproject9659 6 лет назад

I think that thje ACB modelling is really good .................... but of course for budget Synths only

@AlainHubert 6 лет назад

James Reeno If it would be as good as the original, I'd be willing to pay $5K for it, since it would be a bargain compared to the prices of those few original ones left (in as good a condition as this one is).

@AlainHubert 6 лет назад

Adamski A. Agreed. Behringer could be the one to do it. Unless Roland finally gets off their asses, and hop on the analog bandwagon like Korg did with their Prologue.

@koenraijer7596 3 года назад

The way you say synthesizer really reminds me of the way Giorgio Moroder says it during the intro of the Daft Punk song.

@Ianthe22 5 лет назад

The gestures and thoughts dr. mix shared at the beginning is something we all feltXDXD. I remember the mid and late eighties, where you hear those sounds and the word "cool" or "awesome" just instantly pops up in your mind. Gawd i miss those timesXDXD.
