Roland Super JX-10 Original Factory Patches Demo - With Ibanez SDR-1000 - Mozart Rondo Alla Turca
Переглядів 822Рік тому
Original Factory Patches from the Roland Super JX-10. I recorded this in 1986 using my Roland JX-10 with the Ibanez SDR-1000 stereo reverb. I sequenced Mozart's Rondo Alla Turca using Voyetra's Sequencer Plus. On playback I randomly switched different patches on the JX-10 and SDR-1000, going directly to cassette tape. I edited some of the beginning as I did not start changing the patches until ...

Recorded the tv programme as a schoolboy in the 1980s. I couldn’t get my ear around the sound of a ‘trumpet’ slightly delayed coming out after the plectrum hitting the strings on the Roland as he played and him really feeling it -Are You Going With Me live.
Think it was called just Whistle Test by 1984. He was with the Group, playing a Roland Guitar Synth live when it became just Whistle Test. Are You Going With Me in 1985.
Oscar Peterson = Jazz... Charlie Parker = Jazz... Miles Davis = Jazz... Pat Metheny = fusion/pop with some jazz influence
Why's the host sitting with the T-800?
Hey, I am new to synths. I bought a Korg Prologue 16. Is it possible to get that sound from my Korg? If so, can anyone help me to set that Sound on my Korg just like shown in that great video?
I am not that familiar with the Prologue 16. For me the key feature is to invert the envelope polarity. Not all synths can do that.
How can I purchase this for bass guitar??
I would check revebr.com or ebay.com, that is where I bought this.
RolandのギターシンセにHex Fuzzって各弦に個別にファズ掛けるやつがあったと思うけど ファズって実機で掛けてこそファズだと思うからHex Fuzz Face やってみて欲しい
All dated guitar synth sounds and a big bad Elmore James at the end!
I see you enjoyed this very much!
@@WayneJoness I saw the full video before. It was 1981, recording Ghost in The Machine I think. Or 1982 recording Synchronicity? Sting is making demos on a 4 track with a black Strat too!
@@KRAZEEIZATION Wow! Cool!
sabes como cambiar el afinador a 440 de esa pedalera ?? Gracias
Im disappointed with the Gr 300 tones in the Gm 800. Just not even close.
I would agree.
Problem is you cant get rid of the sound of the guitar.
Hm, I am not sure what you mean, the sound of the guitar? There is no guitar 'sound' in the K2 output, only the synth.
Is there a way to use the normal guitar pickups to control the pcm synth sounds? Therefor not using the gk pickup?
No, if you want PCM you need a hex (divided) pickup
dont you think you would of had better "chopping" by using clocked gate in combination? oh never mind, ididnt look un till the end lol...
So i guess the G303 was the pitchh tracking device.
bands like this sound of the 80?
Those shoes are ugly as sin.
Wayne very cool video. I'm the guy who sent you speed/time tests for gr300 and many synths midi a lot of years ago. I have bought this gp 10 and in my opinion the gr300 patch is faulty . I've spent a lot of time to set up at the best the pickup to see if this was a problem, anyway in the sound one octave up there is always a noise like a double note, like some kind of distortion that makes the sound unusable for long notes. Of course i completely removed normal pu sound and stopped any other string to avoid resonance from them. As soon as possible I'll try to send you a clear sample of what I say. Also the attack for me is orrible , its noisy and scratchy and that is not normal on my gr300 this doesnt happen... good attempt roland , may be next time ...😅
Well, that is weird, what guitar/GK pickup are you using?
@@WayneJoness no matter what kind of guitar is the same on all of my guitars... gk3 gk2a...steinberger yamaha..no matter changing gk settings
@@claudioflabiano372 So, do you hear the same issues you are describing when you listen to this video I made with the GP-10? I do not hear a 'double note' in this video, and the attack to me sounds accurate. Are you saying your GP-10 sounds different than the GP-10 heard in this video?
@@WayneJoness the problem is on octave up, long notes high notes these kind of notes are not played on your video I've done a sample track I'll send you email or FB
Hey man, I'm trying to source a circuit board for the g-33. Ive contacted roland but having a hard time getting them to source it for us. Do you know anyone that sells aftermarket versions of them at all?
That was made only by Roland, they would be the only source for the circuit board. I have the service notes on my website: www.joness.com/gr300/G-33.html
@@WayneJoness Thanks man, just a heads up, Iv'e contacted Roland and they don't make them anymore/ have non left in stock. Really appreciate your websight though, has been a huge help. Thinking of making one from scratch, I'll send you through the results if your interested
Thank you for posting this accurate analysis. That s the kind of review I m constantly looking for.
Thanks so much!
dave gilmour used this live on his second solo tour
what a legend, still uploading guitar-synth videos, been following original website with low res videos since like 2007, would love to buy some adapters Wayne made for controlling my gr700 with 13pin pickup but nothing can be found anymore online
I am hoping I can put something in a DIY format later this year! Thank you for your interest!
@@WayneJoness wow thank you Sir that would be amazing, looking forward to it! keep us posted, would buy one in a heartbeat
Thank you Wayne!
Wow! Thanks Bill! I am always honored when you watch and comment on my videos!
@@WayneJoness Wayne your videos are a must watch for anyone interested in guitar and guitar synth. We are so lucky to have you and your great work!
Very nice comparison! Can the GR-300 sound be achieved on the SY-1000, GP-10, and GR-55 without a hex pickup? It looks like the VG-99 doesn't have a GK input, so it appears to not need a hex pickup.
Hey @TechnoRiff have a look at the front panel of the VG-99, there is a 13-pin GK hex pickup front and center! Yes, a GK input is required.
@@WayneJoness Oh wow, there it is! Is that an unusual placement for the GK jack as I'm used to the other Roland/Boss units having to jack in from the back.
@@TechnoRiff Well, I think the VG-99 has the best design of any Roland guitar synth ever. I like having the input on the front, along with all the easy access to the controls. But you are correct, the 13 pin input is usually in the back.
@@WayneJoness Front mounting the GK input does make sense considering the stress created by rear mounted cables, expensive and more fragile as they are. I can get some of the classic GR-300 type sounds on my SY-200 although with less control over the filtering. Not as rich sounding nor as smooth feeling as the 300, but the SY allows a regular guitar input which is a plus. Thanks!
And even more I've now learnt from you videos/site! Very interesting seeing the GR300 wave like that, did not know it was unique!
That is one of the coolest features of the GR-300, next to the amazing tracking. I will do another video in the future that explains how that waveform is generated.
Awesome video! Thank you! I’ve never played through a real GR-300 but love the sound! I have the sy1000, gr55 and gp10. I prefer the gr300 emulsion in the gp10 the best. For some reason it just sounds softer to me. I love the sy1000 though and use it all the time.
I have never compared the SY-1000/GR-55/GP-10 side by side. Feature-wise they are identical.
I love my GR300( has a sticker on the bottom that says you serviced it at some point) but I use my gr55 for playing live just because it's less finicky, the tracking is pretty good. Also I had a question, going to see Adrian Belew with BEAT in October and was wondering if you had any consulting with Belew and Vai about getting the vintage synth sounds ?
Adrian has a great team, I am always available to help out!
Great comparison, Wayne! I have the old GR-300 and a GP10 and also the Roland GR-D. I prefer the feel of the old blue box, but maybe that's because of my wonderful 303 guitar vs the Godin for the digital processors...here I play the 300: ua-cam.com/video/F_Qj78YYhmw/v-deo.htmlsi=cGUctpHUW6bZ8uEu
I should check the SY-1000 with my Godin. I prefer 13-pin guitars with the magnetic hex pickup.
Oh, by the way, I actually used a G-303 to play both synths at the same time. I love the G-303. I have a splitter/distribution unit called the BT-1324 that I made for Bjorn Thorsrud. I need to do a video on that unit some time.
@@WayneJoness Yes, the 303 is really nice... I also love mine. Do You sell these splitters?
A million thanks Wayne. Only criticism is that I wish you could upload more often!
+1
Yeah! I have a lot of videos on my list to upload. I was inspired to do this video as I had watched the 'BEAT' interview at @RickBeato. There is a moment when everyone is like, 'Yep, can't get a GR-300 these days...too bad!' And I was like...what??!??...it has never been easier to get the GR-300 sound. I mean, the emulation is just awesome. I should do a side-by-side with two GR-300s to see how much variation there is between units.
@@WayneJoness I thought the same, when I saw the Beat(o) video.
Tnx man. I just get gp10 to use with godin lgxt. Just to reach new horizon on my creative mind.
Was that fripp at the end on the piano?
Nope. That was Jools!
Great video - very useful. I have a GR55 on order. Can you send the normal guitar pickups to effects then preamp? Just wondering in a live gig if I should stop using a guitar amp and go direct in to PA so the synth and sim effects like acoustic guitar sound right? If so I'd need to have effects in to preamp to get the sound for the normal electric guitar pickups. Any thought would be appreciated 😊
Yes, you could do everything in the GR-55.
Cheers. Looking forward to getting the GR55

I have a 2HP Tune but I need more.. my question is does the 2HP Tune quantize incoming CV to C4=261.6Hz.. A4=440Hz.. or does it quantize eventually to the scale you choose then you tune the pitch of that oscillator receiving CV..? ..I don't have anything to measure CV voltages.. thank you for your answer in advance
Just picked up one of these powerful little units today, very impressive for such a small module
For sure!
very helpful, thanks!
Thank you!
How many sounds can you play all together?
Well, I guess as many devices as you have. Really, there is no limit.
I’m just getting into guitar synths and came across this item. I’m looking for a way to connect my Gr55, gm-800 9(with gkc converter) and Sy-1000.
Wow! That is a lot! Have you checked out the Roland GKP-4? This is a one in, four output device?
Did you ever end up trying a sequencer input?
Have you ever seen an arpeggiator that would work in this configuration? (awesome suggestion by the way….)
Next on my list!
Coolio….
Hi, thanks for your video. Really explored my Unit because of this. :) just a quick question, ive managed to record each strings individually now, but when it goes thru the resynth mode on boss SY effects, it doesn't sound that good... do you have a clue why is that? also im actually looking to record the strings individually with the boss SY effects ON but it kept recording the guitars dry signal only. (been going thru all the pedal settings to figure out why- but i only manage to record the effects real time via input 1&2 in stereo). thank you in advance
I will have a look!
It’s every album King Crimson did in the 1980’s.
What a great sound!
Helpful technical advice. Thanks, Wayne. (sub'd)
Glad that was helpful!
Lol. I think I still might have my VHS
VHS! Long live the VHS!
still got mine bought it in the eighties......never really used the synth much didn’t like the sounds
It has a very specific sound, may not be usable for all situations.
Would this benefit the gk5
I do not see how this would help with the gk5, there is no analog connection for the Filter Buffer
I did not know there was a question.
❤
Every time I see a Roland product I wonder, "But will it Alex Hutchings?" So far roland has held up great!
That system has a great sound
For sure! All in one box!
Can you play more than one octave in pitch with a guitar?
Yes, you can play beyond one octave
@@WayneJoness oh... in my MS-20 it gets out of pitch when you play more than one octave.
@@nivac5227Thats is weird, I will try mine again.
I purchased and used a Roland GR-300 in my rock band in the 1980's touring in Northern Ontario and theCanadian Maritimes provinces with an up and coming new vocalist, Eileen (Shania) Twain. Who knew the amazing artist that she would become. Anyways, I enjoyed playing the syth guitar which was my main electric guitar while in the band. A great guitar in itself. I gave up touring and playing in the early 1990's and packed up the guitar synth unit and all of my gear storing these in my attic for over 25 years. I unpacked the unit in 2020 when I retired and got back into relearning the guitar and re-recording o;d and new tunes. I plan on selling or exchanging the Roland GR 300 Synth unit for an acoustic or dobro guitar. Will let you know when I decide to sell or exchange if anyone may be interested in purchasing the synth guitar. Keep up the great work Chicago Music Exchange team.🎸🎸🎸
Great to hear about your career! Just to be clear, I am not the Chicago Music Exchange, though I do love those guys!
