Welcome to another guide, on this one we will talk about ROLAND JX-08 synthesizer. This is not a review, is a deep dive. We will talk about pretty much everything like creating Patch navigation, VCF, oscillators, parts, FX and so on.
Hope you like it.

JX-08 Sequencer guide: • The Roland JX-08 SEQUE... - เพลง
I’ve had my JX-08 for over a year now and I still learned a few things I didn’t quite know from watching your deep dive video. Thank you again for all of your great videos and the time and details you put into them.
same here
It's is a great synth, Roland is getting better with these boutique synths and the small AIRA. Thanks for the comment, glad you like the videos :)
Excellent work, great deep dive. Probably the most powerful synth ever built at this size and price with high quality sound, hot pro preamps, and stellar DAC. (can be used as an audio interface too).
It is a good good synth, specially for the price. My favorite so far is the Hydrasynth 49, but well is 1.300.
amazing synth, thanks for your usual expertise XNB!
My pleasure!
Great explanation. I will return to this several times I am sure. Thank you.
Thanks! This will be very helpful. Paging around is a pain, but this one is much easier than the JD-08. Cheers! - Glenn
You bet! Thanks for the comment.
your explanations are spot on. The eq visualization are extremly helpful .. you re the one on yt
Hey !! Thanks for the comment. Yeah, people really like the Oscilloscope and Spectrum. Why removing it if guys like it right ?. Thanks again for the comment.
Great video ! Thx a lot ! It helped me so much ! Can't wait for the next video 🥳
Thanks for the comment. Next week is the sequencer one.
What an amazing detailed explanation. Hats off to you. Thank you very much.
Glad to hear it was useful. Thanks for the comment. it helps.
@@XNBeatsMusic Hi I am planning to buy one and not able to make a decision between JX-08, D-05 and JD-08. Which one would you recommend?
This is extremely useful, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment !!!
great video tutorial. I learned a lot. Thx for sharing, mate ...
No, thank you sir/ma'am for the comment.
Brilliant, thank you ❤
Thank you !!! Glad you liked it. Cheers.
Great job! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you 🎉
Thank you then for the comment & support :)
Thank you - looking forward to watch it in full length.
Possibly you could also do the JD-08?
I love this synth so much. It's so complete and unique. Yet there is something so mysterious to me: Why does the ENVs retrigger whenever any of the DCO's pitch, shape, or modulations are edited? Have you noticed? It kinda ruins the fun if you want some slow pads to change over time subtly by tweaking.
Thank you so much for this great tutorial!!, much better explained than the manual provided by Roland. It's an excellent synth both for the price and for the sound, to my ears I find it much closer to a Juno than to a real jx, then with that chorus! One thing I don't understand, when I use it with headphones the audio quality is excellent, while if I connect it via jack to the sound card it's as if it doesn't have the same audio quality. What could it depend on?
Are you using a stereo cable(s)? I believe it'll sound out of phase if you're trying to run it in mono. It sounded terrible when I did it
@@Optical_OllusionI'm the same person but I'm answering from a second account, I use the 3.5 jack cable 1/4 trs, there are bands on the cable so I assume it's stereo
thanks for the video. it's great. is it possible to assign the modwheel of a midi controller to the filter cut off? does it have any kind of mod matrix ?
Thanks for the comment !! Nope you cannot, or I tried at least and I could not do it. Checked the manual and it seems it is not possible. But that would be great.
i don't own it. but thank you to making a videos about Boutique series :)
Thanks for the comment then :)
Did somebody else notice an odd arpeggiator behaviour in dual or split mode? When playing the non arpeggiated part, played notes seem to interfere with the arpeggio pattern in the other arpeggiated part by omitting arpeggio notes and breaking up the arpeggio pattern. For instance playing low notes in the lower part - outside of the higher part's keyrange - should normally not interfere with the upper part arpeggio, but it does. Is this a known bug?
Nice tutorial!! Only thing I don't understand is why they did not add PWM. I know the original also didn't have PWM but I don't like synths without PWM.The underlying engine can do it and other manufacturers also enhance their recreations, even Roland themselves (ACB plugin e.g. of Juno 60 has 2 envelopes, for example). Otherwise it's a really nice hardware and also not that expensive.
You can do PWM by using the second oscillator, so you use square wave in Sync Mod and modulate the pitch by LFO.
Question, there is one set of controls for the volume envelope, but you have two envelopes. Once you st the first one it’s remembered when you change to set the second envelope? Envelope one always goes with the first oscillator and VCF and the same for the second filter? Thx.
Maybe I missed it but does this synth have the "hold chord memory" mode like on the Korg poly 800 where you basically play a chord and then when you turn on that mode you can just play a key and it will play the entire chord?
Is there a voice limit setting to limit voice count? Say instead of 20- have 6-8
You need a midi splitter to play part a and b on separate midi controllers correct?
if you are using two midi devices, then yes, because the synth has one input and needs to listen for two sourcers. It depends on what you are using with it.
With a DAW, you don't need a splitter, just point the DAW track to MIDI 1 , and a different track to MIDI 2.
If you are using a MIDI controller like a keystep pro for example, you have 4 tracks. Same idea, target each track to MIDI 1 & 2.
Do you know, why in some patches the Chorus 2 LED/Button is blinking - I thought that this shows an activated Chorus 1+2 (Chorus-Mode 1_2), but this is not true…
Can i add some sample and synth it up?
Hello. No, it's not a sampler. Just a synth :)
