Arturia Jupiter 8V Virtual Instrument Plug In
The Arturia Jupiter 8V is the software recreation of Roland’s famous Jupiter 8V which was in production from 1981 to 1984. The Jupiter 8V was a synth that not only inspired a generation of musicians ranging from Prince to Howard Jones, from Depeche Mode to Moby, it was also a unique machine that offered a sharp and crystalline sound while being uniquely phat. The Jupiter 8V is loaded with more than 400 presets made by a selection of top musicians. Fully compatible with the main protocols and systems in the industry, it can be used as stand­alone software or as a virtual instrument. With the Jupiter 8V Arturia brings this classic's magic back. Based on the latest version of TAE, Arturia’s award winning proprietary technology for analog emulation, the Jupiter 8V offers a new generation of features: the integration of effects within the synthesis line allows for drastic modifications of the original sound; with Galaxy, a graphical tool made to program two LFO’s in the same time, you get a unique and innovative source of modulation; and with the modulation sequencer you can create new evolving sounds extremely easily. More than 400 high quality and innovative sounding presets Up to 32 voices of polyphony, and a Unison mode A unique studio structure featuring 2 oscillators per voice (16 oscillators in total), 2 LFO’s, 2 filters and 2 envelopes. Keyboard split and layer A set of Analog Sounding Effects: Dual Delay, Phaser, Flanger, all three being largely modulable by any audio source in the synth. 2 digital effects, X and Y. Additional Live-oriented Step-sequencer, additional Galaxy module for advanced modulations Set to Control with your external MIDI keyboard in just a few clicks. Full compatibility with major formats and hosts on Mac OS X and Windows XP (VST, AU, RTAS) Howard Jones states: “My favourite synth of all time is now a soft synth thanks to the wonderful people at Arturia. As with all their soft synths, Arturia have given us a meticulously crafted software version of the Classic Jupiter 8 with some fabulous extra features to bring us into the 21st century. This is a must have for all of us JP8 lovers.” PLATFORM SPECIFICATIONS Windows: Windows 9/2000/XP Mac OS X: Mac OS X 10.3 or higher and Universal Binary MINIMUM REQUIRED CONFIGURATION PC/Windows : 512 MB RAM; 1.5 GHz CPU MAC OS X: 512 MB RAM; 1.5 GHz CPU PROTECTION Syncrosoft™: USB port required.
