Main Features The JUPITER-80 is Roland’s flagship synthesizer, delivering powerful, SuperNATURAL sounds and stunning realtime performance. It includes numerous cutting-edge SuperNATURAL sounds generated by Behavior Modeling Technology, bringing you unprecedentedly natural and rich expressive possibilities.
Main Features Powerful Live Sets with SuperNATURAL x 4 The JUPITER-80 can handle up to four SuperNATURAL tones layered as a “Live Set,” letting you perform with awesome and richly expressive sounds. In addition, you can assign Live Sets to the Upper and Lower Parts to create splits and layers, making it easy to construct rich-sounding stacks that were difficult to obtain on a single conventional synthesizer.
Getting Acquainted with the JUPITER-80 How the Sound Generator is Organized The sound generator is organized into units of sounds called “Registrations,” “Live Sets,” and “tones.
Getting Acquainted with the JUPITER-80 Tones The “tone” is the smallest unit of sound that is managed on the JUPITER-80. There are four types of tones, as shown in the table below. These tones are the elements that make up Registrations (p. 15) and Live Sets (p. 14). Type Explanation These are acoustic-type SuperNATURAL sounds. Many realistic sounds using Behavior Modeling Technology are provided. You can also use the Live Set Tone Modify screen (p. 32, p.
Getting Acquainted with the JUPITER-80 Live Sets Parts A Live Set consists of the Tones assigned to the four layers, settings for four MFX units, and settings for one reverb unit. The JUPITER-80 has four parts; Solo, Upper, Lower, and Percussion. You can assign a Tone or Live Set to each Part and play it.
Getting Acquainted with the JUPITER-80 Registrations A Registration consists of these four Parts: Solo, Upper, Lower, and Percussion. Stored within a Registration are the settings for the sound selected for each Part, as well as settings for the Solo Part and Percussion Part. By switching Registrations, you can change all of these settings at once (except for the system parameters).
Getting Acquainted with the JUPITER-80 About Memory The area in which sounds and other settings are stored is called “memory.” Memory is divided into three areas: temporary memory (the temporary area), rewritable memory, and non-rewritable memory.
Getting Acquainted with the JUPITER-80 USB Memory Song Player/Recorder The USB Memory Song Player/Recorder plays back audio files (WAV, MP3, AIFF) that you’ve copied from your computer to a USB flash drive. Copy to a USB Memory Introduction Insert USB Memory MP3/WAV/AIFF You can also record the JUPITER-80’s performance and save it on a USB flash drive as a WAV file. NOTE Playing Sounds Use USB Flash Memory sold by Roland. We cannot guarantee operation if other products are used.
