Roland JX-08

The original Roland JX-8P broke new ground in 1985 with its hybrid analog-digital architecture, and the JX-08 Boutique Series module authentically recreates the punch and power that producers loved about the original - All in a compact package and with the convenience features that didn't exist back in the '80s.

With two oscillators, HP and LP filters, and cross-modulation capabilities, the JX-08 offers a wide range of options for shaping authentic vintage sounds as well as modern, complex soundscapes.

In addition to the classic JUNO-106 chorus and the reverb from the Dimension D SDD-320, one has numerous options for sound manipulation, including pitch shifting, lo-fi effects, and much more.

The Roland JX-08 module offers a powerful onboard sequencer that supports two parts with up to 64 steps each. In addition, the sound module offers the option for 2-part multitimbral operation.

Motion Recording lets you record complex parameter movements along with your patterns, and with storage for up to 128 patterns, you'll have plenty of room for your own creations.
