Imagine firing up exact recreations of the Jupiter-8 and Juno-106 right inside a hardware synth, no computer required—that's the game-changing PLUG-OUT magic this beast brings to life.
Roland's advanced ACB technology powers its digital heart with eight-voice polyphony, three oscillators offering 12 waveforms each plus a sub osc for thick lows, and silky filters including low-pass, high-pass, and even side-band types with precise 12/18/24dB slopes. The 49 full-size velocity-sensitive keys span a responsive action, paired with a pitch/mod lever, assignable sliders, knobs, and buttons for hands-on tweaking of everything from LFOs to dual EGs. Handsome at 33 inches wide with an OLED oscilloscope display, it packs a 64-step TR-REC style sequencer, arpeggiator, chord memory, vocoder, and effects like multiple reverbs, delays, chorus, and distortion—all routed through stereo outs, headphones, CV/Gate, and USB.
Players love its authentic vintage vibes blended with modern edge, praising the intuitive controls for live wizardry and hybrid layering, though some note the fixed polyphony caps wilder ideas.
