X-plorations vol. 3 for JP8000/8080
(Performance Soundset)
FACTS:
64 High Quality Trance/Techno Sounds; programmed by Manuel Schleis.
Avoidance of clicks in attack (typical JP-sickness)
Use of the ribbon controller/modwheel- for every Sound (drastical change of the sound)
Unbelievable thick leadsounds (SuperSaw Waveform)
No Brass/Piano/Flute Patches! Only up to date and trendy Sounds to rock the Clubs...
Sensible use of the LP-Filter (you can completely close and open it)
PERFORMACE Soundset! Nearly all patches are dual-layers of two single sounds... for more fatness!


A soundbank for Roland JP8000/8080 synthesizers. A very fat and crisp sounding synthesizer which is the reference for trance music since years. It has just one negative attribute - it clicks in the attack phase! You have to adjust the attack and release times very carefully. I have eliminated every click in this soundset in this way - even when the LP filter is completely down!

Before you use the soundset you have to be sure, that LFO Sync, Chorus Sync, Delay Sync is set to "off" (You will find it by pressing shift+2) It can falsify the sound!

This is a "Performance-Bank" not a "Patch-Bank". Nearly every sound (except some pad sounds) are programmed in dual-mode... This means 2x supersaw double Power! Resulting in the fattest leadsounds you can imagine!

For owners of X-Plorations volume 1&2:

X-plorations Volume 3 does NOT overwrite your Volume 1 or 2. Volume 3 is a performance bank and will be stored in the performance user bank - so you can use all 3 banks simultaneously!

Important for Mac User:

X-plorations Volume 3 functions only 75%, if you dump the soundset with your sequencer as a standart midi file. Some sounds are not working ("checksum error") I don´t know why this happens (a JP bug?) I have tried everything out - without success. The set only works 100%, if you dump the sounds with the PC programm "WinJPLib" (I include this programm in the soundset zip) But this programm is for PC only. I recommend, that Mac user should look for a friend, who owns a PC + Midi interface.
