About Roland JX-08

Experience the fusion of classic and modern with the Boutique JX-08 Synthesizer Module, a reimagining of Roland's iconic JX-8P from the 1980s. This innovative synthesizer module brings back the unique, warm pads, shimmering chorus, and crystalline textures that defined an era, all while incorporating advanced features for today's music production needs.

The JX-08 Synthesizer Module retains the original design of the JX-8P, but with a host of sophisticated updates that elevate your music production experience. Discover over 100 new patches tuned for contemporary styles, or use the high-tech onboard controls to design your own unique sounds. With expanded polyphony, two-part multitimbral capability, and dual/split modes, there's even more room to explore your sonic creativity. Plus, you can store your creations in any of the 256 preset slots for easy recall.

This professional-grade synthesizer module comes equipped with 17 powerful effects, many of which are new to the Roland Boutique range. Enhance your JX patches with classic chorus, phaser, and delay options, or experiment with overdrive, fuzz, bit crusher, and the new lo-fi compressor. Filters and pitch shifters are also available to add extra dimension and character to your sounds.

The JX-08 also features a two-part polyphonic sequencer for programming leads, basslines, or basic chords. Use the motion recording and onboard arpeggiator to bring dynamic movement to your musical lines. With a built-in USB-C audio/MIDI interface, you can easily play, record, and synchronize with all types of computer production software. Full-size MIDI I/O is also available for interfacing with other MIDI hardware, and an external clock input allows for synchronization with vintage analog instruments and modern Eurorack systems.

Compact and portable, the JX-08 Synthesizer Module is perfect for on-the-go music production. It can run on standard AA batteries for hours of uninhibited jamming, and features a built-in speaker for sound monitoring. For a polished look and convenient tilt positions, add a DK-01 Boutique Dock, or pair it with a K-25m Keyboard Unit to create a fully self-contained, portable instrument. Experience the perfect blend of '80s nostalgia and modern innovation with the Boutique JX-08 Synthesizer Module.
