I'll just stick with SONiVOX Stratum...

Sounds like the 1990s to me. Great Job Arturia

alot under the hood with this one, really fun to travel back to a fun time with these sounds.

Nah, Nemesis 3 is the ultimate trance synth.

I'll put it up against BeepStreet's Sunrizer (which sadly is no longer available for desktop).

FIGHT!

The Supersaw is spot on.

I really like how Arturia nailed dirtiness from JP-8000. Of course it's not same as original, but it has that recognizable character.
They didn't nail it when it's not the same as the o.g.

So what?
The sound, layout and ease-of-use make me want to play it, just like Spire, Monopoly, or Diva.
You can quickly make vintage superstring sounds, as well as many other sounds.
Perhaps similar superstring can be done in Spire, but Spire is very clean, modern sounding.
Arturia managed to emulate the known dirtiness of JP8000. On some patches you can even hear very subtle noise. I don't know if original does that, never had it.
Compare for example Virus TI2 to Virus C. The older version is not as clean, which makes it interesting...

Sound designers will like Jup-8000 V! I bet Adam Szabo will make excellent banks, and sell more than his own JP emulation

I want Cygnus X - Superstring, Rank 1 - Awakening, Airwave, System F - Exhale. It's best to do it on Jup-8000 V.
As far as I can tell, my VSTi collection may be completed.

I'll wait for Adam Szabo's 8080

Yes, you can make music with Sunrizer, but it's paradoxical to put it in the same topic as Jup-8000 V.

Wash your ears and sinuses to reduce inflammation and sleep better. If your hearing works well, there's no way you would put Sunriser and Jup-8000 V in the same topic

What a combo: Diva, Spire, Triton, Multipoly, Jup-8000 V. It's worth getting that Ultra 9 285K, but amazingly - not necessary at all

I'd wait for his Jup-8000 V presets.

This is now an opportunity for sound designers to recreate many of iconic JP-8000 presets, and make new ones.

We now have virtual JP-8000, call it a "slightly damaged" version, but it's 99% there.

not being able to import the sysex files is a big no for me.

After demoing it I'm content to stick with JP6K until Adam releases his 8080.

I doubt he'd make any when he doesn't approve of the accuracy of the model.

Ive just compared Pigments super unison algorithm in VA osc - its the same as supersaw in jup 8000.

Well, being on a Mac, I'll have to live with the Arturia version, which to be fair, I am enjoying immensely.

The neighbours...less so...
