Re: What should I know before buying a JD-XA? (my first synt in JD-XA Keyboard · 28 Apr 2020

As a synthesizer JD-XA is an outstanding machine without a doubt. I cannot see that many bugs in there to call it "super buggy". It's definitely not. There was a well known hardware "bug" when some cracks popped out in t...

Re: Can you create 808s with the system 8 in System-8 · 13 Mar 2020

Yes, sure you can. Take a Triangle oscillator, then bring both Attack & Sustain down to zero in the AMP envelope. Then make short Release there as well and there you go! Now you can add some Pitch Decay with positive env...

Re: When will a System 8 replacement launch? in System-8 · 24 May 2019

D-50 and JV-1080 are just not a good fit for the System-8 Cause Roland delegated many of D50 and JV1080 features to JD-XA already. So the idea to use System 8 for the same purpose looks somewhat pointless.

Re: Transferring sounds newbie question in JD-XA Keyboard · 2 Feb 2019

Once you've got your JD-XA plugged to a computer via MIDI (either JD-XA's usb or another way) you need to launch JD-XA librarian software and specify your JD-XA MIDI input/output connection in the Setup/Setup MIDI Device...

Re: Sequencing JD-XA with external midi sequencer in JD-XA Keyboard · 7 Jan 2019

I'm not sure what exactly your problem with JD-XA is but you can set any part of it to any MIDI channel you like. In a nutshell you can set either all the parts or just some selected ones to the same channel at a time in...

Re: How to initialize a pattern in JD-Xi? in JD-Xi Keyboard · 30 Jul 2018

It all depends on what you mean by "initial". If you want to clean up the sequencer then just erase all the tracks via shift+erase combination. If you're after initial tone of a digital section then go to FX and scroll i...

Re: My JDXA is falling apart sound wise in JD-XA Keyboard · 18 May 2018

... Roland needs to answer this. Hey, man, don't spread panic over here please. As far as I'm concerned Roland is the only company among the others that really provides tech support to their customers. I had various issu...

Re: New User! Sluggish key issue and sequencer question in JD-Xi Keyboard · 4 Apr 2018

Hi there, That sluggish key operation could be due to an oversized rubber damper (bush) mistakenly installed at the factory. I got the same issue and claimed that problem to Roland. I told them that even though I got my...

Re: FA owner: Is it worth buying a D-05 ? in Boutique Synths · 9 Feb 2018

It all depends on how big your love is. With that Integra Axial library you'll be very limited cause it's just an attempt to mimic to some extent some original sounds of D-50 with use of SuperNatural engine which is not...

Re: JDXi Update request (Roland please read this!) in JD-Xi Keyboard · 23 Aug 2017

Hi there, It's very unlikely that Roland will make your dream come true. However you could easily control a filter envelope as well as many other parameters of your JD-Xi just with use of a programmable midi controller....
