Welcome to "Explorations Vol. 3 Soundset for Roland JD-800 by Saga Musix - https://sagamusix.de/

Also compatible with JD-990, JD-800 VST, Zenology and the JD-08!

Thank you for purchasing this sound set! With these sounds, I aim to explore all the many different faces of the JD-800, so you will find a diverse set of sounds, some more old-school, some with a more modern touch, some pads, some leads, some sound effects - it's all there and I hope you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Before you get started, here are some hints on how to use these patches:

1. Some patches use waveforms from the "String Ensemble" ROM card. An alternative version of the bank is provided which replaces these waveforms with built-in waves, but it is really recommened to get the ROM card for the most authentic reproduction of those patches.

2. Some patches contain optional layers for fatter or alternative sounds. This is indicated by muted tones being selected as active tones after loading a patch. So if layers A, C and D are used in a patch, but you see an arrow next to tone B in the display (or if you switch to active tone mode and you see tone B's LED blinking), try unmuting that tone and see (hear) what it adds!

3. Plenty of patches make use of aftertouch. They are tuned to make use of the full aftertouch range, but many aging JD-800 aftertouch sensors rarely exceed values greater than 20 to 30 (out of 127), unless you press the keys really, really hard. You can make use of the full range by connecting an expression pedal to your JD-800. Edit aftertouch settings to your taste.

4. The JD-800 VST plugin and the JD-08 are not accurate emulations of the original hardware. They just approximate it using Roland's latest Zen Core technology. As a result, many patches do not sound 100% as intended and small adjustments had to be made. For example, the way LFOs interact with the amp or filter is quite different, so especially patches with rhythmic elements are going to sound (quite) a bit different. Some patches originally also made use of the JD-800's ability to pitch down a sample by 3 octaves through the pitch envelope for a lo-fi effect. This is not possible with Zen Core, so those patches sound a bit different.

64 amazing presets are waiting for you and ready to fill your compositions with new colors and inspire creativity.

From Ambient & Electronica to SynthWave & SynthPop with benefits of JD synthesis.

All instructions are included for easy loading.
Enjoy and may the music come with you!
