About This Listing

The JD-XA is a unique crossover synth that brings together analog warmth and digital versatility in one super-creative, no- compromise instrument. First, there’s a four-part, all-analog monster with true analog filters and a direct dry output. Next up is a four-part digital engine powered by Roland’s SuperNATURAL synth technology, plus an impressive selection of potent effects. The JD-XA’s engines can be used independently or interactively, providing an incredibly flexible platform for sound design, studio work, and live performance. Use the analog and digital parts side by side, stack them up for total sonic devastation, or shape digital waveforms via the analog filters to create sounds never heard before. With the JD-XA, you can forget about analog or digital—just close your eyes, imagine how the future sounds, and start creating music. MV7401

Product Overview
The flagship synthesizer released by Roland in 2015, the JD-Xa features a hybrid design combining four voices of analog synthesis in tandem with a flexible digital synth architecture. The analog voices each feature two independent oscillators, with four assignable envelopes, two LFOs and a variety of filters including classic low-pass ladder designs and multi-mode options. The digital section is based around Roland's superNATURAL technology, which bridges the gap between sample-based playback and physical modeling synthesis. A mic input is included for classic vocoder sounds or more adventurous patch modulation. Finally, a full featured multi-effects section rounds out the extensive sound design options. Mirroring the combination of analog style controls with futuristic looks, the JD-Xa is equally at home emulating classic synths, filling in orchestral voices or pushing the boundaries of cutting edge digital synthesis.
