Also, it makes me think of that scene in Wayne's World "We're not worthy, we're not worthy!" :)

No matter what he plays (my JP80 love makes me giggle and jump up and down like a little school girl seeing that photo!) that is one cool and very real dude! What an amazing musician and a musician's musician too. Love hearing him talk about (in documentaries I've seen) about the amazing thing about...

LOVE LOVE LOVE Air Ignite! If you are looking for a super dirt simple recording app, I can't recommend Ignite enough. Although it's available for both PC and Mac, it's very OS X drag and drop style, which I'm very accustomed to already being a mac guy. It works perfectly and easily with the Jupiter ...

unfortunately my copy of Logic Pro is not longer compatible and I'm not spending another $199 for Logic Pro X. :( I am going to continue on with Ableton (they updated it to be compatible with El Capitan for free) and I also downloaded AIR Ignite. I know it's not a DAW, but I'm starting to think I do...

Thanks Macker62, I will try to find a copy of Sonar but AFAIK my JP80 didn't come with anything but cakewalk that is only available on the PC. I'm on a mac.

Thanks CShorte, Cello & Marctronixx! I, too, wish we were closer. It'd be killer to have others to swap and learn with! I have so many questions and would really benefit from learning how others use their JP80 AND how they record, etc. Thank you to all here who responded with good well wishing a...

I started watching Dark Matter (syfy network) on Netflix. Not sure how I feel about it yet, it's growing on me. Roger Cross is a wonderful actor and I always enjoy seeing what he does with a character. PLUS I heard that a lot of the people involved with Stargate Universe are involved with this one. ...

Thanks KNOLAN! Yes, I agree, I've had mine since (well JP50 first) May of 2014, the same month my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and slowly but surely my life took that unexpected turn away from having ANY free time to play. Cancer is currently in our rearview and I'm slowly regaining time to...

Ugh. I've been busy the last year and a half and unfortunately making music and using my JP80 was low on my priority list. I've forgotten how to use my lovely and beloved keyboard! SO I thought I'd ask before I dive back in and hit the books (manual and what little videos are available out there) ag...

I love my jupiter but I haven't touched it in 6 months now. UGH. Started a business last year and my brain is full with little time to play. I was hoping the value invested in my Jupiter 80 would stay around the $2000 range but if it's dropped $1000 new, then I'm sure the used value will drop. Defin...

Great to hear! Enjoy the stage, when my daughter is done with hers I'll have it back and not let it go again... that said, it's not the only keyboard I own or will own. I ended up buying another Korg SV1 73 for my electric piano needs. The Wurly and Rhoades on it are exemplary!

This is good and sound advice. I've been down this road trying to choose between the two. Inevitably I chose the Jupiter 50 over the Juno Stage only to regret it, and bought another one. I ended up moving to the Jupiter 80 for it's superior interface and 4 part multi-timbrel ability. But the Stage s...

That is my biggest problem with both of these keyboards being far from ideal for my needs: their keyboards suck. I love my Juno Stage and Jupiter 80's 76 semi-weighted key beds. They are a delight to play. When I owned the Krome 61 & 73, it was clunky, light and a short throw with terrible atten...

We love the Stage. My Daughter uses it primarily now. The sounds the previous owner did are wonderful, so I know that you can tweak to your heart's content and save some great "performances" for those sounds that include arps, tempo, rhythm preset, etc. The keyboard is the same that's in t...

Good point, I love Audio over USB on my Jupiter and would miss it if I didn't have it now. Sure uncomplicates things!
