You know, an auxiliary verb. The preposition "of" looks a bit out of place, wouldn't you say?/Joachim

I think the important thing to pick up from that video is that this synth has ANALOG components, and the oscillator is ANALOG, and it has an ANALOG filter which is purely ANALOG. The synth is sort of a hybrid, but it has some truely ANALOG components in it, if i understood it right.

all i can say is "wow". was never convinced by microkorg, micron or mininova
due to their digital nature.
roland have finally moved their arses and entered the game and this looks
like a game changer. too bad i have a feeling it's gonna be pricier than the
aforementioned.

my eyes, my eyes!
Looks sexy, but dunno if I could work with that interface for long periods without getting a migraine.
But great to see these new developments from Roland. Credit where it's due!

many people complain on the internet that this product is wrong and that roland should get their act together.
wow! it's not completely on the analog bandwagon? it's useless. LOL.
People wake up!
I couldn't ask for more from a synthesizer in 2015 and roland have outdone them with this one.
First of all the JD-Xi has a completely analog voice. It's made up of the analog oscilator, sub-oscilator and filter.
How much are monophonic synths with the same specs nowadays (mopho, mfb nanozwerg, eowave domino, the doepfer one)?
Around £300.
Then we've got the Roland SuperNatural voices? How could you get access to the fantastic SuperNatural until now without buying
a new Jupiter, Integra and the likes. How much are those? In the 1000's.
And to top it up we got a f***king step sequencer with 4-tracks and let's not forget the keys.
How much would that cost. Around a couple of 100's as well.
So we get all these "worlds" for £399. This really seems like a winner.
The only doubts I have whether or not to buy it, is that it covers so much ground that I might neglect my precious plug-ins.

For me, they could completely stick the analog component. I mean it's pretty obvious that they bring it just for the synth to be analog, because the people are gasping for it. Why is completely beyond me, i mean it's not that we don't have gazillions of monophonic analog synths yet, which all can do nice sounds from the 80ies, but are completely useless for modern music production.cocoazenith wrote:it's not completely on the analog bandwagon? it's useless.

yes, it's definitely a marketing compromise. A full blown SuperNatural mini-synth would've good enough for me as well.chk071 wrote:For me, they could completely stick the analog component.
