Description: Roland Jupiter-4 Late 70's Classic Vintage Analogue Polyphonic Synthesiser - 240V A rare opportunity to own a little piece of synthesiser history. (It sounds good too!)The Jupiter-4 was first Jupiter synth released by Roland. It was among one of the first poly synthesisers with 4 individual voices which could be synced together for one fat monophonic lead, a pitch wheel that could be assigned to the VCA, VCF, VCO or all together, there are 8 memory locations (this one has an upgrade so there are 32 spaces to save your sounds) and a cool arpeggiator - the arpeggiator can be heard in the Duran Duran classic, "Rio". It also has a very slow LFO for those ever-so-long filter sweeps. (Vintage Synth Explorer)The Lofi Music team have a soft spot for the Jupiter-4 and keep one in our personal collection. They have such a great sound and are really fun to use. This item is listed elsewhere and we reserve the right to end this listing at any time. Condition:This unit has been used.
