Moog.FighterPublished on 10/29/05 at 09:43 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Very good analog synth with poly MIDI keyboard original and dynamic. It is absolutely not the rack Jupiter8 as is sometimes read. This is another synth, powerful, rich in possibilities and with a real personality.
It should be noted that there are two versions of MKS80: the rev4 and rev5 and 2 do not sound like ...
- REV 5:
Compared with the rev 4, 5 MKS rev sounds more like MKS70/JX10, meaning that its skins are slower than the 4 rev. Texture "thick" as the rev 4 and therefore ideal for pads and strings in general and especially Roland. VCOs "softer" than the 4 rev.

MKS-vs JUP8
MKS = keyboard so dynamic game more lively and expressive possibility that the JUP 8, better MIDI implementation (original), more possibilities in terms of creation / research.
UTILIZATION
Interest has with its 80 MPG Program for online access to parameters.

The MKS-80 is a great 8-voice polyphonic (2 CSO by 16 votes so CSOs) with identical characteristics to the legendary Jupiter 8.
We can add a memory card that store messages and nicknames MC64 64 sounds which favors its use on stage.
It's a heavy beast and shielded so it can be carried on tour, because it is also very stable for an analog.
It is noon, making it a great synth.

This synth is very much under rated! For 800 EUR you can find MS20 monophonic or other kind of SH-101!
The MKS-80 POLYPHONIC is, it can be very powerful keyboards, tablecloths typical fat roland, synth brass style 80 years, but also tons of original sounds.
The MKS-80 with a great sound, and other than that it is ugly, it sounds like a JP8 (only the purists are aware of the difference in a mix is identical).
As there are few pure analog synth, stable, with MIDI and more polyphonic, the MKS-80 for a very reasonable price is a special place in a studio-based vintage!
OVERALL OPINION
Synth indispensable for those seeking a polyphonic analog for less than 1000 EUR, except with the programmer is found no less than 1400 EUR which changes quite a price, a price that can be a voice of Andromeda 16 poly analog effects, full of buttons, a keyboard and sequencer.
Roland is inimitable sound, the strings, brass and other keyboard sounds a great deal provided by a compressor and effects.See less13
