#Roland #JupiterX #Synthesizer
Wow I thought Claudio was gonna Van Halen right at the beginning but he had more self control.
And some Matt Johnson towards the middle
I thought same, because i played van halen when first got this synth.
Same here!
Lol right 😂😂💯
I thought that as well.
You sure know how to lift my spirit. That pure joy you show when unboxing this amazing sounding synth. Like a kid in a candy store. I just love it ❤️
HE’S THE BEST
I watched this on a train crossing through the German countryside during golden hour on my way to live my best life and play music in Berlin and I must say I almost cried at how beautiful these sounds were
5:39 Those pads just took me right back into the eighties. Beautiful.
Roland has an excellent balance in the mix (volume/pan pot/timbre). I hear that the Jupiter x uses a (stereo) delay instead of mass reverb like other brands. That makes the tone less muddy and it retains the definition and timbre and the tone is thick. The effects are in excellent supporting volume, even with base drum it gives the right amount. It becomes easy to mix with the Jupiter x. Thanks for your demo of my search
The X is a beast. Nice to see you got hold of one!
I really want one BAD!!!😬😬 I'm pretty sure I'm gonna dump my JD-800 to get one
Yeah! Alex, I’m loving your videos more snd more. You’re doing sn AWESOME job ❤️
it is a great machine I’ve not fully explored it yet
@@ryananthony4840 not a good idea.
@@SPAZZOID100 why do you say that?
There’s a reason that my Xm and X are my favorite modern synths, and that’s the FUN. You did a great job capturing that 👏 Now, don’t forget to update your firmware. It’s probably on 1.21 out of the box, and MANY improvements have been made up to 1.43. Looking forward to seeing more, and I’m glad you showed the world how exciting the X is when you first power it up.
hi Doctor Mix. For 2 days since I discovered your channel, I have listened to Jupiter X and Rewiew Roland D50 several times. Unlike other Keyboard tool presenters, you have a great Audio Video imagination. Now I show my father-in-law this demo with Jupiter X and we were amazed ... and we are one of those who promote quality music with analog instruments and Russian religious music in particular. The sound of a synthesizer on Russian minor songs is incredible ...
10:14 I cannot bear one bit the sheer amount of beauty this sound has 😩😭😩😭
those first notes you played, Claudio I really thought I was going to hear Jump for a second.
Need to get you and Matt Johnson both jamming together.
I’m getting serious CS-80 vibes and Bladerunner images from the sounds of this synth, would love one of these - just needs a long ribbon strip lol
I thought so too.
I'm not even a keyboard guy and I love this. Marvelous sounds!
That's something that crossed my mind when I watched, if u have a band that needs some synth but u don't have a keyboardist this beast could definitely help a band bs their way through.... And the price ain't bad
Doctor Mix can make any synthesizer sound like the best synthesizer in the world! Lots of fun listening, thanks!
I love how excited you get. In the back ground you have my dream studio already😎
the sounds are totally breathtaking and this thing can go through all genres, I'd never get tired of hearing it 🎵🎵🎵
It has lots of sounds and engines in it, which is par for the course for most synths of this type nowadays. BUT...I think the really interesting part of this synth is the AI-driven auto-accompaniment drums/arp engine. You'll have to demo that for us once you get your head around it.
@drmix Yes please.
Yeah this thing almost plays itself.... Full song lol
It would be nice to have to compare that AI arpeggiator with Kronos Karma module
other synths don't sound like this tho, Roland made these synths at one time, so obviously they'd be the best at making their own products sound right.
Real nostalgia, a super epic instrument 🎹🖖🏾.
Doctor please learn the manual, it's practically a holy manuscript 🎹
12:04 My favorite part. I love that synth pad type sound. Puts a smile on anyone's face. Keep doing what you do. Jesus loves you, brother!
Jesus loves you? Lol The heck. Absolutely agree though
i dont remember tyhe name of this song (Bee Gees ), if u can help me :) ...
@@blank_9565what's wrong with that?
Jupiter X.... ⚡️"Hell yeah!" I'm glad that Roland is reclaiming their "mantle" in the synthesizer world!! Roland made so many fantastic products in the past. They can do it again! This synth sounds great. I'm listening on studio monitors. 👍
Dr Mix, you're taste is very good. I'm glad that it's you who is showcasing this to me for the first time. Man, from 20:03 on is... 🎵🎶✨
I’m laughing at you first discovery of this beautiful synth. I did similar things when I unbox mine. Didn’t want to read manual and didn’t care for I was having so much fun playing.
😀 me too. Not done any serious stuff on mine yet. Still jamming and having fun! 😂
This is the dreamiest synth ever. Definitely on list.
2 years after release is never too late 👍 An amazing sounding synth. Mine sits front and center.
Well….Jesus. The Jupiter X dies truly sound absolutely INCREDIBLE! Great video as always Dr Mix.
Can’t say enough good things about my Jupiter X! And if anyone deserves one, certainly it’s you! ✨Enjoyed the vid as always!
I love mine as well. I’m so glad I bought it.
Frikkin' GORGEOUS instrument! May it bring you many hours of joy and a whole lotta good tunes from you!
Most of the Jupiter X online demos I have heard are crap. Needless to say, my expectations of the Jupiter X were very low. I was quite surprised when I received my Jupiter X and started programming it. It sounds great and feels even better to play. The build quality of the Jupiter X is definitely first rate. While I don't feel it sounds "analog", it can certainly come close in sound to most of the synthesizers it is trying to mimic. The downsides... the interface is convoluted, the tiny screen is a joke, and the learning curve is quite high which is a major disappointment. The capabilities of the Jupiter X do make for near endless sound possibilities though.
Hopefully Roland simplifies the editing with future OS updates, adds new features, and continues to support the Jupiter X and make it better. Major Caveat for those considering buying a Jupiter X. If you don't like to extensively program and are easily stressed out, the Jupiter X is probably not for you. I would not recommend this synth to a newbie.
One day i will buy this machine♥️
In the mid to late 80's I was stationed in the UK with the Air Force. One of my fellow workers was in a bind and tried to sell me his Jupiter-6. I declined. I was saving for a DX-7 which I eventually got, played, stored, sold. Lesson was learned. I now have a Jupiter-X.
4:08 Que sonidazo! Gracias Dr Mix
This Synth is dope!! OMG what a piece of equipment... bravo to Roland!
16:50 that's it !! a pure analog warm brass
Wow! I'm a diehard fan of real analog synths, but I must admit that I'm very very impressed by this VA ! How many voices maximum in Jupiter 8 mode? Thanks for sharing!
You make me sing man, literally! Claudio, to me, you are invaluable.
I like how no matter who you are, where you are, we allways make a "wow wow" face while turning a cutoff knob
Claudio, REALLY REALLY wish what you started at 17:00 would keep going. I was hearing full songs in my head. Would have loved to turn it into a jam session. It was taking me places.
I love this freaking keyboard.
that part is really nice, pleasure to the ears
The Jupiter X has quickly become one of my favorite synth ever and this video reinforced why I love it so much, keep up the fantastic work Dr Mix, your enthusiasm is infectious!!!🤘🎹🤘
Well done! Agree on the "Pad Test" for synths... very underrated perspective!
I have same box in basement and i think i am not only one. Maybe it is not best synth but at least it sounds and feels best.
Just bought one. I have it tomorrow (17/06/2022) ! It'll join the Roland team with olds and news synths. I'm waiting now the Juno-X ! Thanks a lot for your demo, it's always a pleasure to watch your movies ! Kisses from Reunion Island !
mine just came in today! and has the 3.01 operating system..sooo sweet! working on learning how to run it as I watch this!
Between you and Loopop you have two of the best and most GAS-inducing channels! Loopop tells us every little detail and you make us smile and want to buy!
Oh Doctor, my Doctor! I've been eyeballing this synth all week, now you post an unboxing... damn we're soulmates...
This is the first Jupiter since, you know, the original JP-8 to be true to the Jupiter moniker, and possess the progression Roland strives for.
Yes, it’s not true analog, but just like we’ve seen in the Prophet-X, or Solaris for example, it doesn’t matter when you achieve such a great sound.
Frankly I don't see "true analog" as advantage. Rather a limitation. I own quite a few analog synths (original -106, three JX-8P, JX-10, Prophet-6, a few modern ones), and every time I feel how limited they are. Frankly for me it doesn't matter what's inside of that synth, or if it is even filled with rocks, as long as it sounds great and easy to program. An "old" JP-80 wasn't a bad synth at all, the only drawbacks were an awkward menu-driven UI and lack of realtime controls on the surface.
@@ariksemagin7220 I agree for the most part. Having a usable panel, interface, to connect with the instrument is more important. That's the organic experience of being a true sythesist.
Having said that, I do wish Roland would actually re-release a modern analog version of the Jupiter-8, similar to the new Oberheim OB-X8, which from all indications sounds absolutely fantastic.
I also wish Alesis would re-release the Andromeda. I actually mentioned this to someone there in a forum and got the impression even though they had the specs, the team that created it were long gone, and they seemed to think it wasn't worth the effort to raise the capital to put it into production and were focusing on other things. I think they are wrong, and they'd sell a heap of them. That was a beautiful sounding, very intuitive analog synth.
@@PhilAndersonOutside I doubt Roland will re-release an original JP-8 like Sequential did with P-5: cost of reproducing of analog circuitry is enormous (a simple 8-voice analog poly with two VCOs per voice requires no less than 16 physical VCOs). The market for these "new analogs" is fairly small, they are not the mainstream universal synths like Kronos, Montage or even an old Triton! I like my classics, but they stay at home. What goes to gigs is an old 2001 Roland XP30 that has every patch from classics in its 2000+ patch collection, and most sounds better actually, cleaner, brighter, with more polyphony and effects. The only one who can take on this task (reissue of a close copy of JP-8) is Behringer. They almost finished OB-Xa in 16-voice version and some other improvements and can certainly produce JP-8. Somehow they manage to keep costs down and release classics at a reasonable cost. I have their DM-12 and love it. All depends on price: Moog's MiniMoog reissue a few years back was big flop: very few would pay $3500 for a mono synth without patch memory in 2020.
Wow man..I Love my Jupiter X
Ditto
Have you made a video demonstration yet?
@@monsterjazzlicks I'm planning this week..
@@BryanMagsayo Awesome. Could you show how to step, one by one, through the presets, please?
OMG I want one! I will figure out how to play while messing with this thing
While everyone is caught up giving praise, and making all these crazy sounds, there is a very serious side to the Jupiter 10 that he bumped into and left in a hurry.
Always have an always be an OB-mann. That said, your near-Jump was just "Too Much Heaven" to even try to resist--you had me at heaven's gate!! KUDOS, Claudio and The Gibb Bros. Oh, and as 4 Roland---despite trading my 3 mo old Juno 60 for an ARP Omni-2 in 1983 (best decision ever...seriously), Jupiter 8 and X are definitely superb!!
I LOVE JUPITER-X.
Roland is the best synthesizer for polyphony, and for the music I make, (new age). My first polyphonic synthesizer was the JUPITER 4. thank you Claudio, I like when you say VOILA in French ... L-O-V
🎼 It’s been forever since I heard anyone use the term, New Age Music. I’m a new age artist since the late 80s. Glad to meet you. Check out my TIME with the TIME clock. Cheers!
Yes lovely synth. Vangelis all over again.
Dude I’ve watched a fair few synth videos in my time - u r truly a great keyboard player, the synth sounds awesome and
Ur passion is infectious!!!!
Claudio has done it again! What a monster synth. Thank you DOCTOR MIX!
How can anyone lot love this video. I just got a Ensoniq TS12 and was pretty proud of myself, then I hear this monster. My god, this synth is awesome! Great vid Claudio.
Outstanding monster ! I don't forget the promise of a deeper review. You have to learn more on this guy Claudio ;)
Claudio your face when you explained that you have the Jupiter X. Looked like a kid who had bought a great toy with the money he had been given for new shoes.🤣🤣
Basically, with this you have a Blade Runner world compressed inside this beautiful synth...
Roland!!! They kick ass! I had a Roland U20 in the 90's and a Roland R-5 drum machine...wish I had them still.
It was a brave move to give it the Jupiter name, but it didn't disgrace itself. A worthy addition!
Claudio has come same far with this channel.. total pro style synth set up. Power left right pedal stand
Herman Miller chair studio monitors time to set up 5 seconds. Perfect
Now that’s my dream synthesizer
The Jupiter-X is great, but you are AMAZING.
There really is no substitute for talent.
I watch this video over again. Your playing and the synth is awesome!
Even it is just an exploring of the synth and making fun.
Man, I gotta say... Your reaction to holding the box with Jupiter was like: "Every musician ever" 😂
😂😂😂
We really love you and your cute humor.
Also the Jupiter-X is awesome!!!
Loved hearing you playing the Jan Hammer Scale 🤗
LOL! I could not stop laughing! You make everything you do so much fun to watch! Man you were right about the bass. I had it cranked and everything in my basement was rattling!
Thank God- a demo by someone who can actually play something halfway decent!
It's like every intro chime for every phone, computer and tech company ad... You've got MERCOSTALUXE, INSIDE! *FRRREEEEEEESSSZZZZZ PING*
I like the sniff of the new opened purchase. I have the same like. And new cars for that matter.
The sound on 16:43 is a dream.
@2:55 Man! The amount of restraint it must have taken to not play Jump right there lol
That part from 19:58 to 20:45 where you scare us, I sampled that and pitched it down. It works perfect for a transition in a song that I was working on. When I release the song I’ll share.❤️
The sample starts somewhere around 5:30😉

It'a great machine but I do wish the focus wasn't on Scenes. I would like to be able to call up individual patches from the from the front panel not have to go scrolling in the teeny tiny screen.Which you can't see if you have this underneath another keyboard in a stand.
🤠 You'll find most of those sounds in a JV-1080 & it sounds just as good if you keep it in patch mode, rather than multitimbral mode.
Would love to see a session revisiting this synth after the updates from a few months back. 🍻🎹
It's very interesting to see how digital capabilities, which in fact are in pair with any pc, can make a difference. Dynamics are unclear. Reality is that digital reovlution happened kind of ages ago. At this moement we have it all. Difficulty for the Roland is how to make a device which differentiate. Brand, quality this all counts but reality is that we're at the edge of things. That's why analog is reborn. Looking forward for the next 10 years in the synth business and hopefully innovation. Thanks for the video!
It's always a good day when Dr Mix releases a unbox and Jam video!
That's awesome, Claudio! Great instrument, great player 🤩👌👍
Nevermind all the amazing sounds it can generate, that key bed sound! Wow. Top quality. Is there a preset for it? Short attack and decay, zero sustain, a touch of release.
Thank you Doctor Mix. Now I Have my own Jupiter X, too.
I looked up at 20:14 all I could see was your shirt logo. I thought your head vanished. WOW. Thanks
Wow! I’d love to see how you’re using your JX two months later now - and if and how the 1.50 update changes your workflow. Keep it up man! 😎
It was my understanding (and of course I have none, that the controls on the X were similar or basically the same as the Xm, as they're basically the same thing I Think.
X does a little more with its X-tra real estate but, yes, everything you see and hear here can be done with the Xm as well. It’s just a little more fiddly due to multi-function buttons, but otherwise they are the same synth. Make your choice based on footprint and budget, just make sure you get one!
Yoooo!!!! This man dropped Too Much Heaven in the video!!!! Haha I love the Bee Gees, that was dopeeeee 😎👌
Its a strange one for me. It sounds great but a piece of hardware should give me more or something different than software does. At the end of the day, its a virtual analog that doesn't offer much that you cant already get from many other virtual instruments in software format including Roland's own cloud offerings and other excellent software analog / Rompler emulations.
At the price it sells at, an OB-6 or Prophet 6 would come way before a Jupiter X for me. Obviously, they are also very different machines.
Each to their own of course.
Plugins don't have the tactile feedback.
A full layout of buttons and sliders is worth the money alone when you look at how many input devices you would need for the same workflow and live use.
@@muaddib667 well, like I said, each to their own but in my personal opinion it’s just a bunch of VST’s in a box with a nice controller attached.
I have lots of control with an SL Mk3 and a Push.
For the money this sells at there are more attractive choices in my humble opinion.
I don’t dislike the Jupiter X it’s just very expensive for what it is and it’s certainly NOT the same lineage as the original Jupiter 8.
The Jupiter name should always be reserved for a true analog synth for me.
I'm afraid you're not wrong. But... it sounds so good!
@@glennharrall8655 yeah, you just sound like you've got a massive chip on your shoulder.
Enjoy.
@@muaddib667 what are you on about? You can’t even say “I like it but I don’t think it’s worth the money compared to some real analog stuff” without being labeled now?
I even said I like it! Just not enough for the price and what it is.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion you know
Lesson from unboxing lots of heavy stuff: Don't try to fight gravity because gravity always wins. Let gravity work for you instead by lifting the box from the contents instead of grabbing the contents and then ungracefully wiggle around trying to make the box drop.
really enjoyed that Mr doctor mix , love your energy , could you do another showing more of the JP X
I will be writing music with Roland Jupiter. This music will take you far. Where the mind has never been
It took my mind to a place where I was hoping to get my money back.
Claudio! That's "too much heaven" for one man !
Un de mes rêves...
One of my dreams...
Very nice demonstration Docteur Mix. :)
Dr. Magic Mix. The Jupiter X really comes alive with your passion. Awesome Show Today. Thank you so much.
I love how the first place he pretty much goes is that Juno/Jupiter kinda bass....😜😉😉😈
Would love a full review of this; there’s lots of videos on the XM but the form factor of this one seems a lot more appealing.
Also, how are the internal speakers? Been looking for something for the living room to sit down and compose at.
On that note, how are the piano patches? Not something I would be using all the time but good to have.
I love how you do the filter mouth thing same as I do when I’m having some filter action. I just can’t not make shapes with my mouth when I’m filtering 😂😂 but I CAN eat a donut without licking my lips. Oh and what a synth!
Love this guy ❤🎹 We all need more of this kind of happiness in our lives.
Early on I didn't understand what the point of the Jupiter X/M was but I gotta say it'd be nice to save some space in the studio. Sounds pretty good and some of the new modules are sick.
Such a PHAT filter!! So silky!!!!!
Dude...you just made my day....always brigs a smile back in my day. Thank you :-) and congrats with the new Synth Baby.
This is like a synthesizer from another galaxy
I just love that synth. Sounds like fun
