From Our Research Team:

Analog Heaven!

At Sweetwater, we know there are a lot of knob jockeys out there who love the analog look and feel! Well, feast your eyes on the JP800! This synth is a throwback to glorious analog synths, combining lots of knobs and realtime controllers with vintage synth sounds provided via Analog Modeling Technology. A newly developed DSP oscillator offers seven unique algorithms: Sawtooth, Triangle and Square waves, plus new waveforms like Super Saw, Triangle Mod and Feedback OSC. The JP-8000 produces 8-voice polyphony and has a 49-key (four octave) velocity-sensitive keyboard. Features:
  • Incorporates new roland analog modeling technology, combining the fat, powerful sounds and tonal variations associated with vintage analog synths with the flexibility of digital technology and MIDI
  • New DSP oscillator with distinct algorithms: Saw, Square, Triangle (PWM), Super Saw (7 detuned Saws), Triangle Mod, Feedback OSC
  • 38 front-panel knobs and sliders for unprecedented realtime control and sonic manipulation -- allows for the intense "tweaking" required for modern dance music production
  • 49 note velocity-sensitive keyboard
  • "Analog: synth functions like oscillator sync, ring modulation, cross modulation and -12/-24 dB filtering
  • Assignable ribbon controller and powerful pitch bend/ modulation lever
  • 8-voice polyphony for thick chords
  • Innovative "Motion Control" feature memorizes all sequential slider and knob movements, ensuring that a great realtime "tweak" will not be lost
  • Powerful vintage-style arpeggiator with beat patterns
  • Programmable Realtime Phrase Sequencing (RPS) functions
  • Onboard digital delay and chorus effects as well as tone controls
  • Backlit LCD for enhanced ease-of-use
  • MIDI compatible: flash ROM for future program updates

Our Customers Say...

Ninety-five percent of everything in this studio came from Sweetwater. My Sales Engineer is a lifesaver. I started working with him around 2005, talking to him about what my vision was for the studio. He was right there all the way.
