This versatile instrument combines the best of analog warmth and digital precision, offering musicians a diverse palette of sounds and features for comprehensive sound design and performance.

The JD-Xi boasts a true analog synth engine that delivers rich, full-bodied bass and lead tones, complete with hands-on controls for real-time tweaking.

With 37 velocity-sensitive mini keys, this synthesizer is not only space-efficient but also highly expressive, allowing for nuanced performances. The onboard four-track pattern sequencer is a powerful tool for creating complex loops and rhythms, featuring two digital synth parts, one analog synth, and drums. Whether you're into real-time recording or prefer the step-by-step approach, the JD-Xi has you covered, including a TR-REC mode reminiscent of Roland's iconic TR-series rhythm machines.

The included gooseneck microphone opens up a world of vocal expression with the built-in Vocoder and AutoPitch effects. Manipulate your voice in real-time, producing everything from classic vocoder tones to modern, auto-tuned vocal effects. The Auto Note function even lets you generate synth sounds with your voice without laying a finger on the keys.

Drum tracks come to life with the JD-Xi's diverse array of high-quality drum kits. From pounding electronic beats to natural acoustic drum sounds, each kit can be fine-tuned to fit your musical style, with easy-to-access controls for filter, envelope, pitch, and pan adjustments.

Enhance your sounds with the JD-Xi's four separate effects sections. Effects 1 and 2 offer a range of processors, including Bit Crusher, Slicer, and Ring Mod, while the dedicated Delay and Reverb sections provide the spatial depth to immerse your audience in sonic landscapes. Each effect can be independently applied to the synth sections and drums, giving you the freedom to craft your sound.

Connectivity is a breeze with the JD-Xi's USB audio/MIDI interface, facilitating seamless integration with computer-based recording setups.
