Arturia Jup-8 V4 Virtual Synthesizer Plug-In

Arturia 1090-33 Overview

The Arturia Jup-8 V4 is a virtual instrument plug-in that models a Roland Jupiter-8 synthesizer, the legendary polyphonic flagship synth heard behind Duran Duran, Moby, Depeche Mode, and many more. With an extensive feature set that was considered years ahead of its time (from keyboard splitting to intricate modulation), the Jupiter-8 delivers fiery brass stabs that cut through any mix, massive stacked chords to drive your chorus home, soft airy leads that float on top of your arrangement, and unstoppable unison bass that is the embodiment of fatness.

Modernized with new creative and advanced features for today's music maker, Jun-8 V4 adds complex LFO combinations, modulatable dynamic effects, and an advanced step sequencer with extra modes than the original instrument. It also offers an easy-to-use interface, simple controls, accessible creative features, and 300 factory presets, making it an essential keyboard for bringing earthshaking, head-turning sounds to your music productions and sound-design projects.

Arturia's proprietary TAE technology accurately emulates the characteristics of analog oscillators, filters, and soft clipping, ensuring that the Jup-8 V4 sounds and behaves exactly like the original Jupiter-8. This virtual instrument is compatible with Mac and Windows computers and runs as standalone software or operates within your DAW on the AU, VST2, VST3, NKS, and AAX Native formats.
