The Roland JX-08 Boutique synthesizer is a loving replica of an eighties stomper: the JX-8p. A kind of Juno and Jupiter hybrid, this fat analogue synth was used by the biggest names of the time.
Ideal for linking smaller desktop units and equipment as well as a mass of other MIDI-based applications, this pack of four CME 5-pin DIN MIDI cables feature neat low-profile plugs to support a clean finish.

Roland JD-08 Boutique Synthesizer
A fantastic little powerhouse of a synth. I missed out on the D50 remake, so this is the next step up. Don't let the small faders put you off, as the last one you touched is transfered to the 4 big pallete faders. Sounds just like a JD800 but smaller, excellent 4 layer pad machine with some sounds you will recognise from the 90s, that lead guitar sound is woah! D50 esque samples on board create that breathy bell type character if you want it. Programming is relatively easy I found using the led nemeric screen easy, as the abbreviated functions are written in a thoughtful way so as to understand them quickly. Also responds to aftertouch which opens up another side to designing sounds. Love it! Bax music delivered as promised, no hassles, kept me informed on delivery and updated accordingly. Only quibble was the JD08 box was just floating around in another box, no packing between them, this split the corner of the outer packing. Some bubble wrap would avoid this, luckily no damage to the goods inside.

Fijne stekkers die mooi compact zijn voor op het Pedalboard. Werkt goed met mijn Eventide pedalen.

Hoewel de schuiven op de Roland JP-08 absoluut kort zijn, is het goed mogelijk om heel precieze waarden te selecteren. Het goed leesbare beeldscherm met drie cijfers en de links boven geplaatste langere schuiven (= Palette) helpen daarbij. Er is duidelijk goed nagedacht over de bediening. Een part selecteren is eenvoudig (Note + Tone A / Note + Tone B). De basisfuncties, zoals het opslaan of selecteren van een patch of sequence zijn eenvoudig. Meer complexe functies vragen soms wat meer van je inbeeldingsvermogen. Maar wie zoekt, zal op internet ook editors vinden voor deze synthesizer. Ik vind de klank gevarieerd en warm. En het is leuk om zelf eigen geluiden te ontwerpen.

Roland JD-08 Boutique Synthesizer
I purchased the JD-08 synthesizer and I am positive about its sonic capabilities. It is however a quite complex synth with many layers running in parallel so can be a bit of getting used to dealing with the layers at the same time. Also, It is definitely a very digital synth, but no shade, that can be cool also and is well worth the money. The range of sounds and effects that can be achieved with this synth is impressive. The effects are so so but do the trick. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality digital synth at an affordable price.

Roland JD-08 Boutique Synthesizer
Ayant déja été agréablement surpris par les performances d'autres modules "boutique" je me suis donc penché sur le JD 08, et je n'ai pas été déçu: un concentré de possibilités sonores, avec un visuel inspirant et une interface intuitive riche en commandes directes. Possédant l'original (JD 800), je retrouve bien les caractéristiques sonores qui me sont familières et ceci dans un format cette fois-ci compact et autonome (alimentation par port usb ou piles). 128 voix de polyphonie (pour un "tone") quand il y en avait 24 sur l'original! Et le son est envoyé en numérique sur le port USB! Le séquenceur de mouvement et l'arpégiateur ajoutent des possibilités de modulation aux deux LFO, ce qui permet de dépasser sur ce point le JD 800.

Zo lang gezocht naar de analoge versie maar de prijs is me gewoon te duur. Eindelijk heeft Roland voor de liefhebbers deze schitterende 808 drumcomputer opnieuw uitgebracht maar in een kleinere vorm. Ik vind dit echt zo goed gedaan en blij dat ik deze in mijn studio heb toegevoegd heel erg blij mee!

Roland TR-08 Rhythm Composer Boutique Drum Machine
Endelijk na jaren hebt ik mijn mini 808 feestelijk onthaald met drank en dames, ik moet wel zeggen dat het echt mini is, maar de sound ochhh (natte onderbroek), het is simpel te programeren het werkt volgens mij op batterijen dus koop die ergens bij een supermarkt, en ohja ook handig te bestellen een mini jack to jack kabeltje.
Tot mijn verbazing heeft deze TR-08 ook een ingebouwde speakertje
kortom top ding!

Mooie recreatie van een klassieker, heel compact en programeeert net zoals de originele, uiteraard is deze digitaal maar klinkt net zo goed als zijn analoge grootouder, tesamen met mijn tb-03 en tr-09 een unieke combi... Kopen nu er nog voorraad is zou ik zeggen
