Bad Gear - Roland's Microkorg

Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Before Roland was turned into a lifestyle brand our favorite synth manufacturer released instruments that had a profound impact on music history.

At the top of this pantheon sits the iconic Jupiter-8, a massive analog synth keyboard sent down to earth in 1981. Today we are going to talk about Jupiter-Xm and it goes without saying that Roland would treat its majestic legacy with utmost respect - just kidding, it’s digital, there’s plenty of menu diving and - of course - minikeys worthy of a Microkorg.
