The New Wave Synthesizer - Roland Jupiter-4

(c)2007-22 by RetroSound supported by UVI: ❤️ Support #RetroSound​ channel: The Jupiter-4 came out in 1978 and was one of the first polyphonic synthesizers along with the Prophet 5 and the OB-X. Being affordable, he was often found on the coming New Wave music. Human League, Depeche Mode, Heaven 17, Duran Duran, Simple Minds and many other groups used the synthesizer. The sound is very unique and stands out from the big brothers. Wilder, louder, darker. I prefer this sound character over the others. The demo track shows a typical drummachine triggered bass with some sounds of the JP-4 all synthesizer sounds: Roland Jupiter-4 (1978) drums: LinnDrum (1982) recording: multi-track without MIDI, played by hand The Jupiter-4 playlist: RetroSound synthesizer demo videos since january 2007.
