What did you expect?

I love the ACB technollogy...

i hope this keyboard has a high quallity keybed...
The system 1 has the worst keybed ever...

I hope in future they will also release plugouts of none roland synths
Or even totally new modelled synths...

Also they need to have a System 1m holder...
So i can have the system 1m just above the System 8...


Any wishes left? Yes a future workstation that also supports these ACB plugouts...
With several slots of ACB plugs on top of the standard sampling and supernatural sounds..

How can you complain when you havent even used it ? lol .. anyways .. I dont think it will be for me although it sounds awesome

I like the digital side of the JDXA too much I think ..

Will say though .. Roland have obviously recognised the issues with the JDXA bright frontage and toned it down a bit to make it more useable/visible

The System-8 is almost everything I hoped for in a new ACB synth.

- Decent polyphony and polyphonic plugouts
- The two most interesting boutiques as plugout
- Extensive controller abilities
- Arpeggiator and step sequencer
- Enhanced System-1 synth engine
- Bitimbral

I think plugouts of non Roland synths is not going to happen, but completely new synths with ACB technology sounds very attractive.

I think it is to soon for a full ACB workstation.
ACB is in development, but I love to see a sort of super Jupiter-80 in ACB form with a sequencer.

Meanwhile, I think that the System-8 will be great in combination with my JP-80 and Aira stuff.
A valuable addition to my setup.

I love the system 1, especially with the system100 plugout so I can't wait for the system 8. I also love my JP-08 but what do I do with it now? sell?

I'm hoping for polyphonic SH 5 and 7 plugouts not recreations of their digital synths, I'm also guessing that the current plugouts - sh2 sh 101 etc will still be mono which will be a shame.

and yes a stand for the system 1 would be awesome.
