The New Classic The SYSTEM-8 is a direct result of over four decades of synthesizer development at Roland, including some of the most iconic instruments ever made. It absolutely nails the sound and behavior of our most sought-after classics, like the included JUPITER-8, JUNO-106 and JX-3P synthesizers—and yet it does so much more. Mix and match modern and vintage oscillators and filter types with multiple dedicated effects—then split and layer them into never-before-heard new sounds. Shape every detail with the huge array of high-resolution controls and create fully realized musical ideas with the onboard polyphonic sequencer with motion recording. Beyond Vintage The SYSTEM-8’s synth architecture draws on our deep history of research and development—and it includes authentic models of classic oscillators, filters and effects. It even has down-to-the-circuit recreations of the JUPITER-8, JUNO-106 and JX-3P built-in, not to mention the world of legendary synths available on Roland Cloud. But the SYSTEM-8 goes way beyond vintage. It has multiple flavors of digital and analog-style oscillators including Saw, Square, Triangle, SuperSaw, FM and more completely unique waveforms. Filter options include the famous JUPITER and JUNO filters as well as more recent designs like the unique Side Band Filter. Ever wondered what a knobby, FM synth with a JUPITER-8 filter would be like? Now you can find out. Able to split, layer and combine different synth engines, the SYSTEM-8 is unparalleled in its versatility, going from glass to growl, or pluck to punch, with just a few tweaks of its high-resolution controls. PLUG-OUT rozšírenie Syntetizátor SYSTEM-8 je vybavený tromi pozíciami pre hosťovanie a ovládanie PLUG-OUT syntetizátorov, ktoré predstavujú úplné a autentické verzie modelov klasických syntetizátorov Roland a môžete ich ľubovoľne meniť. K dispozícii sú PLUG-OUTy JUPITER-8, JUNO-106 a JX-3P, tie môžete aj kombinovať s vlastným syntetizátorom SYSTEM-8 a vytvoriť super- synth patche s vrstvenými zvukmi a vlastnými splitmi. Rozrastajúca sa kolekcia PLUG-OUT nástrojov v službe Roland Cloud obsahuje JUNO-60, SH-2, SH-101, PROMARS, SYSTEM-100 a mnoho ďalších. Navyše fungujú aj ako plug-iny pre DAW programy, ktoré môžete ovládať prostredníctvom syntetizátora SYSTEM-8. Maximálna kontrola nad zvukom Vďaka štedrému ovládaciemu rozhraniu SYSTEM-8 ponúka bezpočet spôsobom pre tvarovanie a objavovanie zvukov. Ovládače na paneli poskytujú priamy prístup k dynamickej tvorbe zvukov a úžasnému hudobnému vyjadreniu. Mnohé hi-res filtre sú dostupné vďaka špičkovej ACB architektúre, môžete využiť aj výkonný side-band filter, inšpirovaný novátorským syntetizátorom Roland V-Synth. Množstvo precíznych efektov (overdrive, distortion, fuzz, delay, chorus, reverb, atď.) umožňuje ďalšie tvarovanie a spracovanie zvuku. Podobne, ako parametre syntetizátora, aj parametre efektov majú praktické a pohotové ovládače, s ktorými sa pri tvorbe zvuku nestratíte. Dream Sequencer The SYSTEM-8’s polyphonic sequencer is designed to be quick and flowing, keeping up with the rapid pace of your musical ideas. The upper and lower layers of the SYSTEM-8 each have their own dedicated sequencer which can trigger internal sounds or devices connected via USB, standard MIDI, or CV/GATE. You can record in step or real-time modes and the sequencer can even capture per-step or real-time parameter changes using motion recording. Keep things fresh and exciting with dedicated knobs for scale, gate, and shuffle as well as hands-on control of playback modes and direction. Kreatívny zvukový nástroj Poslaním syntetizátora SYSTEM-8 je inšpirácia, intuitívne hranie a rozdúchanie vašej kreativity. 64-krokový sekvencer má dobre známy TR-REC interface a samostatné ovládače pre nahrávanie, prehrávanie a manipuláciu slučiek v reálnom čase. Pri tvorbe vašich sekvencií môžete zaznamenať jednotlivé noty alebo kompletné akordy, ako aj pohyby ovládačov. Funkcia Arpeggio je vybavená pohotovými ovládačmi pre zmenu Patternov a štýlov priamo pri hraní. Funkcia Chord Memory umožňuje spúšťanie polyfonických notových kombinácií jedným klávesom. SYSTEM-8 je vybavený aj špičkovým vocoderom, ktorý ďalej rozširuje expresívne možnosti a užijete si s ním jedinečné hudobné momenty, na ktoré nezabudnete. USB a CV/Gate SYSTEM-8 exceluje ako "performance" nástroj, to však nie je všetko. Môžete ho ľahko integrovať do vášho produkčného pracoviska alebo spojiť s externými zariadeniami. Syntetizátor funguje ako USB Audio/MIDI prevodník pre váš DAW program a 49-klávesová klaviatúra má úžasnú odozvu, vhodnú pre nahrávanie MIDI stôp. Dokonca môžete využiť aj režim Control Surface a priradiť všetky ťahové, otočné ovládače a tlačidlá na ovládanie vašich softwarových syntetizátorov. A vďaka vstavaným CV/GATE výstupom môžete vysielať dáta Note/Pitch z generátora a krokového sekvencera a ovládať vaše modulárne syntetizátory a retro mašinky.
