(Open Box) Roland JX-08 Sound Module

Product Overview Debuted in 1985, Roland released the JX-8P and took hybrid synthesis to the next level with an innovative new analogue-digital voice. The instrument became an instant go-to by world-class session players, who continuously used its warm pads, shimmery chorus, and immersive textures into the era’s most popular tracks. The JX-08 introduces the unique sound of this sought-after classic in great detail, together with powerful new effects, a polyphonic sequencer, and more. To spark inspiration, there’s a full panel of hands-on controls taken from the companion PG-800 programmer unit for the original hardware.

Whilst the original design of the JX-8P is retained in this modern version, a range of updates have been added to take the experience up a level. Experience the 100-plus new patches tuned for contemporary styles, or use the onboard controls to create your own sounds. With expanded polyphony, two-part multitimbral capability, and dual/split modes, there’s even more possibility to expand your sonic ideas. When you’ve created a sound you like, use any of the 256 preset slots to store your creations for easy recall. Features User Memory Sound Patch: 256
