Roland Super JX and Retroaktiv MPG-7X

Roland Super JX (MKS-70 / JX-10) is one of Roland&most underrated analogue polysynths. Released in 1986, it was effectively 2 x JX-8P synth engines in one instrument, giving you 12 voices of DCO analogue synthesis, huge pads, powerful basses and classic mid-80s Roland character. In this video we take deep dive into Roland MKS-70 Super Jupiter rack synth, paired with Retroaktiv MPG-7X programmer and Vecoven PWM upgrade, which massively expands capabilities of original synth. We explore how controller transforms experience compared with original menu-driven interface and look at additional synthesis power introduced by Vecoven upgrade including true PWM, additional envelopes, extra LFO and expanded modulation routing. Along way demonstrate range of sounds including pads, basses, evolving textures and layered patches, showing why Super JX became famous for its huge analogue pads and rich detuned sounds. We also look at some of performance features of MPG-7X such as assignable controls, patch generation, chord mode, velocity crossfading and MIDI integration, which make this combination feel like modern analogue synthesizer despite vintage hardware. If you&into vintage Roland synths, analogue polysynths, or classic 80s synthesis, Super JX is fascinating instrument sitting right at transition between analogue era and rise of digital synths like DX7.
