The Arturia Jupiter 8V is the highly-anticipated software virtual instrument recreation of Roland’s famous Jupiter 8 analogue synthesizer which was in production from 1981 to 1984. The classic 80's Roland Jupiter 8 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 whilst somehow also being uniquely 'phat' in its own special way, with a bass end that could bring down the house!

With the Jupiter-8V Arturia brings this magic back. Based on the latest version of TAE® - Arturia’s award-winning proprietary technology for analogue 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.

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.”
