Roland Jupiter-8 In stock

Details

A Roland Jupiter-8 in good shape — the flagship eight-voice analog polysynth Roland built between 1981 and 1984, and the machine most of the sounds you associate with that era actually came out of.
This is the 14-bit revision. Later Jupiter-8s moved from the original 12-bit DAC to a 14-bit one, which gives finer resolution on the internal control voltages — tuning and filter tracking sit more precisely across the keyboard, and the later units are the ones most players look for.
It has been through my bench rather than flipped as-found. Serious inquiries by email or phone; local pickup in Indianapolis preferred, shipping can be arranged for the right buyer.
