  • I got the new Roland JD-08 synthesizer. It is modeled after the JD800 which I had in my setup years ago. In this improvisation I am using four audio tracks with the "Looper" device of Ableton Live. I can control the Looper and volume with the Midi fighter Twister. Each vertical line of four knobs controls one track. All patches were designed by myself. Effects are Valhalla DSP Delay and Valhalla DSP Vintage Verb.

      It's still got enough "Boutique-isms" that I hesitated to buy it. Went older-school and picked up a JV-1010, which has essentially the same capabilities - 4 part ROMpler with a flexible filter and high polypony/multitimbrality in a 1/2 rack. It was a cheap entree into that lush lush Roland soundscape :D

    Wie immer super session!
    Wie macht sich denn der kleine JD-08?
    Ich bin noch etwas zögerlich bezüglich der mikroskopisch kleinen Fader. Ist ein genaues ansteuern von werten damit überhaupt möglich oder gibt es ähnlich wie zB bei Deepmind ein universellen Regler mit dem man zuletzt bewegten Fader genauer steuern kann, um das ganze zu erleichtern? Hatte zumindes die Hoffnung dass es sich bei dem etwas größeren Drehregler neben dem Display um sowas handeln könnte.

    • @MartinStuertzer
      @MartinStuertzer  Před 2 lety +1

      Tja ehrlich gesagt ist das wirklich kein Vergnügen, den am Gerät zu editieren. Um Sachen live zu schrauben ist er gänzlich ungeeignet weil es keinen Catch / Relative Mode für die Fader gibt, die tatsächlich gemessene 1,9cm kurz sind. Die vier längeren oben links können immer in allen vier Layern das steuern, was man zuletzt angefasst hat, das haben die vom JD800 übernommen. Aber auch hier gibt es dann Parametersprünge und das Display zeigt nicht an, wo der ursprüngliche Wert war. Das könnte wie zB beim Microfreak durch einen leuchtenden Punkt gelöst werden. Aufgrund der absurden Gebrauchtpreise (die Menschen sind halt ungeduldig!) wandert der wohl bald wieder aus dem Studio raus.

    Hi Martin I was hoping to be able to do real-time tweaking on the JD-08 itself - but it looks you are using the JD-08 controls mostly to control patches/tones (I think I saw an envelope tweak too).

      Real time tweaking is not really the strength of the JD08, the faders are only 1,9cm short and there is no parameter catch / relative mode that prevents jumps when you load a patch.
