Powerful Live Sets with SuperNATURAL x 4
The JUPITER-80 can handle up to four SuperNATURAL tones layered as a “Live Set,” letting you
perform with awesome and richly expressive sounds.
In addition, you can assign Live Sets to the Upper and Lower Parts to create splits and layers,
making it easy to construct rich-sounding stacks that were dicult to obtain on a single
conventional synthesizer.
Four-part Registrations for Extensive Performance Potential
In addition to the Upper Part and Lower Part that are the core of your performance, the
JUPITER-80 provides a Solo Part that lets you play a melody or solo on the top note, and a
Percussion Part that spices up your performance.
All of these together can be instantly called up by pressing a Registration button.
Powerful Sound with a Full Selection of Eects
A Live Set contains four multi-eects (MFX) processors in parallel, each giving you a choice of 76
types of eects that range from standard sounds to eects that powerfully transform your sound.
In addition to this, the Live Set also provides a reverb processor.
By using the Upper Part and Lower Part simultaneously, you can create powerful sounds that use
up to eight eects and two reverbs simultaneously.
The Solo Part and the Percussion Part also have their own independent compressor, EQ, and delay,
and both the Solo Part and Percussion Part also each have their own reverb.
Tone Blender
A Live Set features the new Tone Blender function, which lets you simultaneously control multiple
parameters such as the level, pan, cuto, and MFX send for each of the four tones.
By using a knob or the D Beam to simultaneously control multiple parameters of four tones in the
Live Set, you can easily generate powerful sonic transformations that were impossible on previous
synthesizers (p. 61).
Controllers Optimized for Live Performance
A color-coded panel layout and full-color TFT touch screen (pressure sensitive) ensure that the
status of the sound is instantly comprehensible.
Dedicated buttons are provided for instant access to the functions you need, guaranteeing
intuitive operation during your live performances. In addition, the JUPITER-80 provides four sliders
with LED meters that allow you to directly adjust each Part’s volume at any time, a modulation
lever for expressive dynamics, [S1] and [S2] buttons for switching between performance
techniques, and a D Beam controller for additional performance possibilities—all focused on
realtime playability.
Sturdy Body and a 76-note Weighted Keyboard
The keyboard is the most important factor in your performance, and the JUPITER-80 provides a
weighted 76-note keyboard that gives you superb playing feel for condent performances on
stage.
Coupled with the sturdy aluminum-paneled body, this is a keyboard that expressively responds to
every nuance of your playing.
USB Audio Player/RecorderUSB MIDI/AUDIO Support
The built-in Audio Recorder provides a great way to capture your phrases and inspirations on a
USB ash drive as audio les (WAV). Of course, audio les (WAV, AIFF, MP3) can also be played back
from your USB ash drive, allowing you to use them as backing tracks for your performance.
The JUPITER-80 also provides a USB MIDI/AUDIO connection to your computer. Even when you’re
in your production studio, you’ll enjoy the same familiar setup as when performing live.
