Roland System-8

Inspired by more than four decades of legendary Roland synthesizers, the SYSTEM-8 PLUG-OUT synthesizer offers a huge range of powerful sounds. Its next-generation Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) engine, an eight-part polyphonic monster with 3 oscillators, features stunning filters and effects, extremely versatile LFOs, and fine-resolution controls and sliders.

Thanks to the support of three PLUG-OUT synthesizers at the same time, the SYSTEM-8 can accommodate immortal Roland classics - and the PLUG-OUTS of the JUPITER-8 and JUNO-106 are already included in the purchase*.

Separate or combine the sounds of different synths, use the integrated vocoder, arpeggiator, CV/Gate outputs and the polyphonic step sequencer to fully exploit the creative possibilities of SYSTEM-8.
