The JX-8P is a decent analog polysynth. It has 6 voices of polyphony,
great MIDI implementation and patch storage as well as an external
memory cartridge slot. Though it is far more advanced than its
predecessor, the JX-3P, the JX-8P has its
drawbacks. Hands-on programming is sacrificed and reduced to assigning
the parameter you want to tweak to a data-slider near the pitch/mod
bender. Enter the PG-800controller which
gives you total control of all the JX-8P's editable parameters with
hands-on traditional slider control. Membrane buttons dominate the front
panel of the JX-8P providing access to the various preset and user
patches and to page through and assign editable parameters.
Professional features can still be found under the hood of the JX-8P.
Its 61 note keyboard is velocity and aftertouch sensitive. Just like the
Juno synthesizers it uses DCO's for a very stable system, however its
sounds are a little thin and bright. It also features portamento, unsion
and solo (monosynth) performance modes.
It is used by Biosphere, 808
State, Tangerine Dream, The Shamen, Depeche Mode, Überzone, the Cure, Go
West, Ozric Tentacles, Future Sound of London, Jean-Michel Jarre,
Andre Morgunoff, Europe, Jimmy Jam.
