The Roland JP-8000 was released in early 1997 to compete with the other analog modeling synthesizers of the period such as the Access Virus, Clavia Nord Lead the Korg MS2000 and the Yamaha AN1x. These were the early Virtual Analog Synthesizers (VA synths) that were released in the mid to late 1990's. While the functionality, sound, and architecture of the JP-8000 differs from these other synthesizers, it shared the same purpose of recreating the unique sound and functionality of classic analog synths. The JP-8000 was viewed at the time as the modern incarnation of the classic Roland Jupiter-8, from 1981. It sought to reproduce the warm tonalities and sheer analog power of its older, bigger brother, of course with a modern slant, adding all kinds of features, from motion control, to RPS, to the fabled Super Saw oscillators and old-school controllers such as an arpeggiator and an assingable touch response ribbon control.
8:42 in length. 2.5 minutes of which is absolutely nothing.
Looks like you were having fun. But what was up with getting up in the middle and leaving for a minute? Did you have to go drop a deuce? Was getting the porn (or is that the yoko rolling stone issue?) worth it? You could have edited the video before you posted it.

The JP-8000 is a cool keyboard. I have the factory preset bank from the JP-8000 loaded on my AN1x , wild stuff. Looks like you are having a blast with it keep up the good work and make us more videos! U Rock! I gotta admit though half way through the video you had me a little worried when you came back with what looked like a porno magazine. I feared this was gonna end up giving a whole new meaning to Synth Porn! Cheers!
