Synthesizer
In 1985, Roland's innovative JX-8P advanced hybrid synthesis with a fascinating new analogue-digital voice. The instrument was immediately embraced by top session musicians, propelling its warm layers, shimmering chorus and crystalline textures into the most popular tracks of the day. The JX-08 reintroduces the unique sound of this sought-after classic in every detail, complete with powerful new effects and a polyphonic sequencer. And to optimise your composition process, there's a panel packed with controllers from the PG-800, the original instrument's companion programmer.

Presentation
Classic sound. Modernised.
While the original design of the JX-8P has been retained for this modern version, a host of new features enhance the music-making experience. Explore over 100 new patches designed for contemporary styles, or use the available controllers to create your own sounds. And thanks to improved polyphony and two-part multitimbral capabilities, your musical ideas will develop with ease. Once you've found your style, you can save your creations for instant recall using the 256 preset slots.
Even deeper effects.
The JX-08 is equipped with 17 powerful effects, the majority of which are new to the Roland Boutique range. You can add sparkle to your JX patches with classic Chorus, Phaser and Delay, or get a little more extreme with Overdrive, Fuzz, Bit Crusher or the new Lo-Fi Compressor. Filters and pitch shifters are also available to add extra dimension and character to your sounds.
Evolving music.
Once your patches are set, switch to the two-part polyphonic sequencer and start programming leads, bass lines or basic chords that will be synchronised with the other parts of your electronic ensemble. And to produce evolving sounds, use the motion recording and built-in arpeggiator to make your melody lines really dance.
