Not sure if this will suit. As I've just posted on another thread, the Roland Promars MRS-2 has four 1,2 Ni Cd batts (Serial) on a bracket, separated from PCBs. However, their attached wires that connect them to the main PCB can "transport" some acid. It happened on mine, fortunately just the PCB co...

Roland JP8000: SMD Electrolytic capacitors in the main board go. Acid leaks over the PCB and corrodes on both sides. Symphtoms usually start with dimmed audio outputs. Next, cracks and clicks. All those on the Main Board need to be replaced. KORG CX-3 (Mk1). All 10uf/16v electrolytic caps on the KLM...

Like Victor Frankenstein I'm brining this back from the dead... Martin did play the Mt-30 at this show 27:27 https://youtu.be/4CwNC5uoMwo Lead synth on Nothing to fear. I bring this back in 2018 too :) I noticed The "Fairlite" casio sound seems to be only a "half" (the horn style sound) of the whol...

I Bring this thread up again just for add some information. They used the Boss DR55 in live shows during Vince Clarke era:

I really don’t know much about synths but I know somebody who is advertising a D10 for $75. I can't appear to find something online about the price or excellence of them and I am wonder if this is a fine purchase. I would like to get into synths so is this product worth it? It worths that price jus...

The Hit sounds like an Emu Emax library sound

Micke wrote:It's an old Italian electric reed/chord organ, possibly a Busilacchio. The sound is a bit accordion-like.

Nice to see Micke is still around, solving every "guess the synth" thread.
I recall you solved a Welson string machine picture I posted many years ago
(Sorry the oftopic)
DX

If an asterisc is shown on the LCD when the weird sounds come, it means a slider or knob has read a value change, so it affects the sound. Set the Midi Analyzer on (or Scope, don't recall how is it named on the JP now) and it will show which control is being changed in realtime.

Greetings. After a while, checking back the forum. Nice to see lot of people, like Micke (master of keyboard knowledge) still here.
This is one of my fav JP8 uses (01:08 and up):

I am really lost on the others, but "Never Cry Wolf" seems to feature a jupiter 8?

Depeche Mode "People are People". There ain't no DX-7 in that song, the bells, harp and metal sounds are from the PPG Wave and Synclavier II respectively. EDIT: The tubular bells sounds on It Doesn't Matter could be the DX-7 though. Thanks for the input micke. I always thought that bells sounding a...

Depeche Mode "People are People".
Depeche Mode "Shake the Disease" (only DEMO version: )
Bobby Brown "Don't Be Cruel" (intro)

My voice into a Casio SK-1

This is a spanish 80's band playing one of these (Mk II).
Altough the sound is not very complex, it makes an idea about the colour.

Peopleee are peeoopleee...

Great demo.
