1 Introduction
1.1 Roland/Jupiter-8 Story
The hist ry f R land is intimately tied t the pers nal st ry f its f under, Mr. Ikutar Kakehashi.
When he was just 16 years ld, the y ung Mr Kakehashi n ticed there was n watch r cl ck industry
in p st-war Japan. He theref re underst d there was a thriving business t devel p repairing
existing timepieces.1
Mr. Kakehashi f und a part-time j b in a watch repair st re, but he quickly felt frustrated with the
pace at which things were pr gressing. In the traditi nal Japanese rganizati n f w rk, bec ming a
master in any technical area w uld take a seven-year apprenticeship. C nsequently he left after a
few m nths, b ught a b k n h w t repair watches and set up the “Kakehashi Watch Sh p”.
This first venture happened t be s successful that he quickly decided t expand and turn his
enthusiasm f r music int business. It became legal at that time t have a sh rt-wave radi and t
listen t f reign br adcasts. While he scanned the airwaves f r new music, Mr Kakehashi learned
the basics f h w radi s perated. He then used br ken sets t create w rking units. His repair sh p
started t repair br ken radi s in additi n t cl cks and watches.
In 1954 Mr Kakehashi pened an electrical g ds and repair sh p by the name f “Kakehashi Musen”.
- Later the name was t be changed t Ace Electrical C mpany. His initial g al was t pr duce an
electr nic instrument capable f generating simple m n ph nic mel dies, and s he ended up
building a Theremin. L king f r a new challenge, he later built a f ur- ctave rgan using parts
fr m a reed rgan, bits f teleph nes, and simple transist r scillat rs. In 1959, he designed and
built a Hawaiian guitar amplifier, but he als went n with his further rgan devel pments.
1 It is remarkable that a man named Mr. T rakusu Yamaha had als started ut as a watch repairer.
Just as Matthias H hner, the f under f H hner. Even the Hamm nd Organ C mpany has the same
kind f rigin. It started ut as a sub-divisi n f the Hamm nd Cl ck C mpany.

On 18th April 1972, Mr. Kakehashi established the R land C rp rati n.
The first synthesizer fr m R land, was als Japan's first synthesizer. The sh-1000 came t the
market in 1973, just bef re the K rg 700 did. It was a remarkable instrument, ffering 10 preset
t nes selectable fr m c l ured tabs. Y u c uld add vibrat , gr wl and p rtament t m dify the
s und.
The System 100, launched in 1975, is an ther R land m n synth that w uld bec me s ught-after
l ng after pr ducti n st pped. The System 100 c nsisted f five semi-m dular pr ducts. These were
the 101 Synthesizer, the 102 Expander, the 103 Mixer (including a simple reverb), the 104
Sequencer, and the 109 M nit r Speakers. These units fit t gether t pr duce a system that s unded
really interesting.
The first results fr m 1976's expansi n in the devel pment team, led t an expl si n in R land's
pr duct range. There were m re synthesizers, a pian , m re speaker systems and s me n w-classic
instruments that included the Jupiter-4 C mpuph nic p lysynth. The Jupiter-4 was the c mpany's
first true p lysynth. It used R land's trademark ch rus and three Unis n pti ns that made it a
p werful m n synth. There als was an excellent arpeggiat r.

By the end f the 1970s, R land established itself as a maj r manufacturer, and in 1981 Mr. Ikutar
Kakehashi pened f ur new c mpanies in three m nths. R land UK, R land GmbH and Musitr nic
AG in Switzerland. He als established a new Japanese divisi n called AMDEK (Anal gue Music Digital
Electr nics Kits)
Back t the early 80’s, the Pr phet 5 and Oberheim OB series d minated the p lyph nic synthesizer
market. Having that in mind the Jupiter-8’s success, initiated in 1981, t k every ne by st rm.
But what made the Jupiter-8 s successful? Well, in terms f s nic p ssibilities, it c mplemented its
c mpetiti n by bringing s mething different. The Jupiter-8 was capable f creating very versatile
s unds. Y u c uld easily make 'fat' r ‘Crystal’ s unds with it. In fact, the Jupiter-8 s unded the
way it l ked, ‘sleek and p lished’. Offering scillat r sync, cr ss m dulati n, a switchable
12dB/24dB filter and p lyph nic p rtament , the s und design pp rtunities were endless. Y u
c uld easily save and l ad patches via its cassette interface. Even a superb arpeggiat r was
included. And last but n t least, the Jupiter 8 was m re reliable than its c mpetiti n, and the s und
was m re c nsistent fr m m del t m del. Theref re it was very attractive f r stage and studi use.
In 1982, R land released an upgraded Jupiter-8, the JP8A, It upgraded the Jupiter-8 with a number
f enhancements. An impr ved DAC with a higher res luti n f the aut -tuning system fr m 12- t
14-bit, plus a brighter LED screen. The Jupiter-8 has bec me ne f the m st revered f all
synthesizers.
The electr -p p c mmunity became quickly c nvinced by the qualities f the Jupiter-8. 'Relax', by
Frankie G es t H llyw d was pr duced inc rp rating a Jupiter 8, and players such Vince Clarke,
J hn F xx, and Martyn Ware were als using it. The path t classic status f the Jupiter started
there.
Other artists that have used The Jupiter-8 include: H ward J nes, Tangerine Dream, Underw rld,
Jean Michel Jarre, Depeche M de, Prince, Gary Wright, Adrian Lee, Heaven 17, Kitar , Elvis
C stell , Tears f r Fears, Huey Lewis and the News, J urney, M g C kb k, Yes, Dev , Freddy
Fresh, Simple Minds, Jan Hammer, and BT.
In the early 80’s R land and Sequential Circuits c mbined f rces t create the MIDI pr t c l. The
techn l gy was derived fr m R land’s earlier DCB bus F rmat. MIDI is still being used t day with
great success. In 1982, R land lauched the Jupiter-6, the first synthesizer inclueding the MIDI
pr t c l n b ard. This new synthesizer was intr duced as an enhancement f the Jupiter-8.
In 1982 R land als released the TB303 Bass line. Initially marketed as a 'c mputerised bass
machine', the little silver b x and its c mpani n, the TR606 'Drumatix', were intended f r use as
replacements f r a bass guitarist and a drummer. The TB303 had a very characteristic filter, and a
built-in sequencer.

In 1984 there was the intr ducti n f three synthesizers. The Jun 106, the JX8P and the JX10P.
The last ne was the replacement f r the Jupiter-8. Unf rtunately, the JX10 was never destined f r
the same success as the Jupiter 8.
It was the Intr ducti n f COSM and the ' V ' pr ducts in 1995 that set the future directi n f r
R land. Mr. Kakehashi and his teams had rec gnised that digital signal pr cessing and physical
m delling were the future f the electr nic audi industry. R land applied these techn l gies t a
br ad range f pr ducts. Fr m s und m dules and dance- riented gr ve b xes t their m st
expensive digital mixers and audi w rkstati ns. R land remains at the f refr nt f synthesizers and
electr nic music.
1.2 TAE
®
TAE® True Anal g Emulati n, is Arturia's utstanding techn l gy dedicated t the digital
repr ducti n f anal g circuits used in anal g classic synthesizers.
The Jupiter-8V is taking benefit f an enhanced versi n f TAE®, ptimizing CPU all cati n and
mem ry usage, while being even m re accurate than in previ us pr ducts.
When implemented in s ftware c de, TAE®’s alg rithms guarantee authentic emulati n f hardware
specificati ns. This is why the Jupiter-8V, and all f Arturia’s virtual synthesizers, ffers an
unparalleled quality f s und.
TAE® c mbines f ur maj r advances in the d main f synthesis:
1 2 1 Aliasing-free oscillators
Standard digital synthesizers pr duce aliasing in high frequencies, and als when using Pulse Width
M dulati n r FM.

___________________________________________________________________________________

TAE® all ws the pr ducti n f t tally aliasing-free scillat rs in all c ntexts (PWM, FM…), and at n
extra CPU c st.

1 2 2 A better reproduction of analog oscillator waveforms
The wavef rms pr duced by the scillat rs in anal g synthesizers are marked by the presence f a
capacit r in the circuits. The discharge f the capacit r results in a light bend in the riginal
wavef rm (n tably f r saw t th, triangular and square wavef rms). TAE® all ws the repr ducti n
f this capacit r discharge. This is the analysis f the R land Jupiter 8 wavef rm, and that f the
Jupiter-8V. They are b th equally def rmed by the l w-pass and high—pass filtering.

What’s m re, the hardware anal g scillat rs were unstable. In fact, their wavef rm varies slightly
fr m ne peri d t an ther. If we add this t the fact that the starting p int f r each peri d (in
Trigger m de) can vary with the temperature and ther envir nmental c nditi ns, we find ne f
the characteristics that c ntributed t the typical s und f vintage synthesizers.
TAE® repr duces the instability f scillat rs, bringing a fatter and “bigger” s und.
1 2 3 Direct Filter Circuit Modeling
Due t advances in c mputer pr cessing p wer, the Jupiter-8V can n w empl y direct filter
m deling techniques t achieve unprecedented accuracy in the emulati n f a hardware
synthesizer’s filter. By m deling the perati n f the individual hardware c mp nents f the filter
circuit, the warm nuances syn nym us with anal g s unds are recreated. This graph is a frequency
d main pl t as just a single example f direct circuit m deling in acti n; it sh ws the generati n f
harm nics at multiples f the res nant frequency, f r b th the Arturia Jupiter-8V and the R land
Jupiter-8. These harm nics are characteristic f the hardware synthesizer’s filters and are due t
the n n-linear behavi r inherent in its anal g circuitry. The harm nics generated add t the
richness and warmth f the s und pr duced by the filter. As a result f the direct recreati n f this
anal g circuitry, the same characteristics f the s und are present, thus giving the user a truly
anal g s und.
