ROLAND SYSTEM 8 PLUG OUT SYNTH | INCLUDES ALL 3 PLUG OUT SYNTHSAmazing Condition, Immaculate.Works Perfectly, selling due to only been used a handful of times.Still under warranty for your piece of mind .
We are selling this fab synth, as it is hardly ever used and the funds are needed to go to other areas of the studio. Its such a shame, as this synth is the most fun you can have with any instrument ! Knobs for everything, so easy to make new sounds, and play all the classic ones .
This also works as an amazing Keyboard Controller. We tried it with Omnisphere 2.5 once, and it was just like playing a real keyboard – everything was seem less. Fantastic extra if you have Omnisphere.
The condition is pretty much like new ; though we dont have the original box. It does however include a manual (which is fairly worn) and Power adapter + Factory reset. Basically, exactly the same as buying new.
All editors / needed Drivers can be downloaded from Roland directly.
Also , as a Studio , we can offer any after sales support and set up that might be needed. We can talk you through, or direct you to information etc to get your new bit of kit up and working.
Works as a midi controller, through both the MIDI ports and USB.
Includes a fabulous Vocoder, and can also process external sources with its internal EFX. Really wish we did not have to let this go, the more i write about it, the less sure i am!
Will be packaged up and sent , all insured and well packaged.
Please only bid if you have the funds to pay for the item within 4 days of end of listing.
Please feel free to ask any questions . Smoke and Pet Free studio 🙂
Here is the Manufacture description for those interested :
Powerful and deep, the SYSTEM-8 delivers a vast palette of sounds inspired by over four decades of legendary Roland synths. Its next-gen Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) engine powers an eight-voice, three-oscillator monster with stunning filters and effects, highly versatile LFOs, and a massive array of high-resolution knobs and sliders to control it all. Support for three PLUG-OUT synths means the SYSTEM-8 can host spot-on recreations of numerous Roland classics, and JUPITER-8 and JUNO-106 PLUG-OUTS are even included with purchase (*). Split and layer synths for unheard of sounds, and tap into the integrated vocoder, arpeggiator, CV/Gate outs, and advanced polyphonic step sequencer to fuel endless creative explorations.SOUND.

The SYSTEM-8 is equipped with the most advanced ACB engine yet, which offers eight voices of polyphony, three oscillators (including a sub oscillator option), and silky-smooth filters with ultra-detailed resolution. Its easy to dial up warm pads, fat basses, expressive lead tones, and more, all inspired by the rich sonic character of the legendary SYSTEM series. Reaching beyond the retro vibe, the versatile SYSTEM-8 is also capable of producing crisp, dynamic tones and evocative textures that are ideal for modern sound designers.
PLUG-OUT ExpansionIn addition to its impressive internal sound engine, the SYSTEM-8 features three expansion slots for hosting and controlling Rolands PLUG-OUT software synths. JUPITER-8 and JUNO-106 PLUG-OUTs are included, giving you immediate access to authentic sonic reproductions of these Roland classics (*1). Optional PLUG-OUTs such as the SH-2, SH-101, PROMARS, and others are supported as well (*2). Using the SYSTEM-8s Performance mode, youre able to combine the internal synth engine and hosted PLUG-OUTs to create super-synth patches with layered voices, custom splits, and more.*1 Preloaded JUNO-106 is scheduled for release in 2017 by SYSTEM-8 update.*2 Support for SYSTEM-8 on previously released plug-out synths to be available soon.
Maximum Sonic ControlWith its comprehensive interface, the SYSTEM-8 offers countless ways to shape sounds and discover new ones. The panel is packed with direct-access controls for dynamic sound creation and live performance expression. Many hi-res filter types are available courtesy of the advanced ACB engine, including a powerful side-band filter inherited from Rolands influential V-Synth. Tons of top-notch effects are on hand for adding character and ambience, from overdrive, distortion, and fuzz to delay, chorus, reverb, and more. And just like the numerous synth parameters, the effects have grab-and-go controls that make it simple to enhance sounds as you play.Creative ToolboxDesigned to inspire, the SYSTEM-8 is filled with intuitive performance tools to spark your creativity. The 64-step sequencer features a familiar TR-REC style interface and dedicated controls to record, play, and manipulate loop sequences in real time. While building your sequences, you can capture single notes or full chords, as well as all your knob and slider moves. The Arpeggio function is equipped with quick-access knobs for switching patterns and styles as you play, while Chord Memory allows you to trigger polyphonic note stacks with a single key. The SYSTEM-8 even has an advanced vocoder built in, offering another expressive option for delivering unique and memorable synth performances.
USB and CV/GateWhile the SYSTEM-8 excels as a performance instrument, it easily integrates with your production software and external gear. The synth functions as a USB audio/MIDI interface for your DAW, and the 49 full-size keys provide a responsive, great-feeling keyboard for recording MIDI tracks. Theres even a control surface mode for using the SYSTEM-8s knobs, sliders, and buttons with your soft synths. And with the built-in CV/Gate outputs, you can send note/pitch data from the synth engine and step sequencer to trigger your modular synths and retro gear.SpecificationsKeyboard: 49 keys (with velocity)Sound Generator Section: Models – SYSTEM-8, PLUG-OUT1, PLUG-OUT2, PLUG-OUT3Maximum Polyphony: 8 voices (MODEL: SYSTEM-8) (MODEL: PLUG-OUT1, 2 and 3 depend on PLUG-OUT software)User Memory:Patch: Patch: 64 (8 memories x 8 banks, per one model)Performance: 64 (8 memories x 8 banks)Structure Elements: MODEL: SYSTEM-8 is as follows (MODEL: PLUG-OUT 1, 2 and 3 depend on PLUG-OUT software)LFO Section:Variation: 1 (Single LFO), 2 (Dual LFO), 3 (Resonanced Pulse LFO)Waveform: : SINE, TRIANGLE, SAW, SQUARE, Sample&Hold, Random, : 6 types, : 6 typesKnobs: FADE TIME, RATE, PITCH, FILTER, AMPControllers: KEY TRIGGER, TRIGGER ENVELOPEOscillator 1 Section:Variation: 1, 2Waveform: : SAW, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, SAW2, SQUARE2, TRIANGLE2, : 6 typesModulation: CROSS ModulatorOscillator 2 Section:Variation: 1, 2Waveform: : SAW, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, SAW2, SQUARE2, TRIANGLE2, : 6 typesKnobs: COLOR, MODULATION Source (MANUAL, LFO, P.ENV, F.ENV, A.ENV, OSC 3), OCTAVE (64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2), COARSE TUNE, FINE TUNEModulation: RING Modulator, Oscillator SYNCOscillator 3/Sub Oscillator Section:Waveform: SINE (-2 octave), SINE (-1 octave), SINE, TRIANGLETRIANGLE (-1 octave)TRIANGLE (-2 octave)Knobs: COLOR, TUNEMixer Section:Level: OSC 1, OSC 2, OSC 3/SUB OSC, NOISENoise: WHITE Noise/PINK NoisePitch Section:Knob: ENVELOPE DepthEnvelope: ATTACK Time, DECAY TimeStep Sequencer:Track: 1 Per patch (Step pattern is saved as a patch)Step: 1 – 64 stepsRecording Method: Step recording, Realtime recordingControllers: SCALE, PLAY MODE, GATE, SHUFFLE, FIRST STEP, LAST STEPOther: VOLUME, INPUT volume, ARPEGGIO, CHORD MEMORY, VOCODER, KEYHOLD, VELOCITY OFF, TRANSPOSE, OCTAVEControllers: Pitch bend and modulation lever, BEND SENS PITCH, BEND SENS FILTER, MOD SENS PITCH, MOD SENS FILTERDisplay: 16 characters 2 line LCDExternal Storage: SD Card (SDHC supported) for backup/restore functionConnectors:PHONES jack: Stereo 1/4-inch phone typeOUTPUT (L/MONO, R) jacks: 1/4-inch TRS phone typeINPUT (L/MONO, R) jacks: 1/4-inch phone typeCV/GATE OUTPUT jacks: Miniature phone type (CV: This jack supports OCT/V (Hz/V is not supported).
