Yes I see what you mean but to me I hear a certain Hollowness also..? I don't know its just not quite whole.. but yeah sounds good still maybe I´m imagining things but it doesn't sound or have the depth like my Juno 6 or old Jupiter 4 I used to own.. But still great synth.
I have the aluminium end cheeks on mine, JP8 style. Lots of people now coming round to the fact that (along with the V Synth) this is the best synth Roland have released in the past 30 years
@@magicalsynthadventure3216 Could not agree more. I owned a Juno 6/60, JP4/6 and 8 over the years, and the modelling on the 8 is perfect... as is the Juno 60. JP-4 a bit less so, but close enough for Jazz
Totally agree! I've bought and sold many Roland synths over the past 30 years but I have kept my V-Synth and System 8. They're certainly the most interesting synths Roland have made in that time. Well, I kept a D-50 as well -- you sorta have to, eh? :)
Just did mine in his JP8 livery - big improvement! As others have said, this is Roland's best synth since the JD-800, and easily fills in for most of their analog legends. I just wish they'd do the JX-8P with ACB modeling!
Great demo. I will always love ROLAND gear, especially the really QUIRKY stuff :) Keep up the good work...
That’s probably the best System 8 demo I’ve seen. Great jam. The sound is very elastic & fantastic!
Thanks, the crossmod is wild!

It’s astounding 👌🏻

In mine I have the Jup8, JX3p (duh) and System 100 as although monophonic, it has 2 LFO’s and filter FM (or anything modulated by a VCO!)
Awesome, Paulee! Looks and sounds fab!

JP6 is what most of us want.... that's a beast and I believe ONLY Roland would get it right, as the Mercury version isn't close IMHO
@@NickHowesAstro yeah, I'd love that one too.
added to the shopping basket...
The synth or the overlay? 😊
the overlay, and oddly enough, mine has the wooden end cheeks too...
I’m sure aglsales will be thrilled that you’re ordering one :)
That is a tidy overlay! Still too many green leds... my eyes...!
Thankfully you can turn most of them off 😂
