Jupiter 8 Poly Vs. Dual
OK - here is a demo of the differences between Poly mode (8 voices, mono) and Dual mode (4 voices x 2 channels - stereo) on the Jupiter-8. There are eight different patches that I created - each goes for a couple of seconds on Poly, and then I set it for Dual with both upper and lower outputs on the same patch for a stacked four-voice stereo. Some of these sounds do well in both, while some just love the stacking. The slight differences in tuning over two sets of four voices, combined with the fact that the LFO's don't sync between 'stacks', creates a huge stereo field. I tried to play similar things on each pass (poly vs. dual) and also tried to balance the volumes afterward (as the dual pass was generally hotter). Yes, the JP is a little more difficult to play with "just four voices", but having owned the PEK for so long, I am used to that... I start out with a real basic patch, but each one is sufficiently different to hopefully maintain 'interest'.
Thanks - I've been meaning to get more stuff up here with the JP-8... I think I got lucky with the condition of mine - it fails the autotune now and then, and some pots are a little scratchy, but once I get it locked in, it sounds great. Hopefully yours can be all it can be soon. Good luck!

Hi mok, thanks for this one. I've never heard the JP-8 sounding so good! I've got mine last year - unfortunately it still must be serviced. Martin from germany
