«  A great synth! »

Published on 08/31/11 at 10:28
Essentiellent 128 preset, 64 users, 16 performances, a card slot SRJV, a pcm card slot and patch. A large screen for editing and 24-voice polyphony.

UTILIZATION

Usage is quite simple thanks to its large screen, the logic of the menus is not very complicated. Used to it very quickly!

SOUNDS

The sounds!! ah! the sounds of the Super JD.
The preset banks A & B does not reveal the possibilities of JD990, it must make its own sound, behave like a true synthetic, and the JD will reward you!
As we all know a card is needed for a great expander is of course the SRJV04 "Vintage Synth", playing gently with the effects and sometimes add an external reverb, we arrive at some wonderful things.
It sounds really good, it excellent on tablecloths, synth sounds in general.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 12 years, and each day I fellicite of this purchase, it's a real synthesizer, digital as we like, who lives!!
What can we blame him? the polyphony of 24 voices, 4 partial effect using a patch, it is reduced to 6 voice polyphony! but generally we use a partial or two for most sounds.
But we can not have everything, I think Roland has had to decide between quality of synthesis and high polyphony compared to the power of the machine.
I ask myself sometimes to take a second to solve this problem when using a lot of sounds in a sequence such as a JD dedicated to intensive groundwater polyphony and another for the rest.
I recommend this expander.
