David Emm Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 What a great release for vintage hounds. The attention to detail is gratifying. If it was a Jupiter-8, my inner fanboy would probably leap on it. One-oscillators bug me because I have to stack them too often. Its not an issue with the Mercury-4, just a logistical choice by a grumpy old pianist. I recommend their Memorymode highly (the Unison is a thing of awe), but I need a JP-8 for that famous reason: Because. We'll see many reviews, but if you want an ample sound demo, listen for yourself. Note the need for Rosetta 2 on newer Macs, but huzzah, that actually works. I am too damned old to be this tickled by a synth company.

Doerfler Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I don't have any need/desire for this myself but the price is sure fn right for those that do Please "like" this post.

Al Coda Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 Have you tried Tal-J-8? +1 Currently, this is the best JP-8 emulation. Much more expensive than Cherry Audio´s plugiins though ... I didn´t expect C. A. coming w/ the JP-4,- but now, when I hear the audio demos, I´m sure they have the code to come up w/ JP-6 / JP-8 later. A.C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardware Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 They nailed the resonance of the filter. I judge digital filters by the resonance tracking more so than cutoff frequency sweeps as that"s the easy part. Good find Al.

Konnector Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Sounds good. Price is right. I recall lusting over the Jupiter 4's years ago when they were first released. I have way too many soft synths, but I might buy it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Schmieder Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Lots of good Jupiter-8 emulations out there already. The Jupiter-4 is neglected, and has some similarities to the ProMars, but I think I like the latter slightly better overall. Yet the most famous Duran Duran arpeggios were done on the Jupiter-4.

Oh yeah, there's the TAL, the Arturia Jupiter 8V, Roland's Cloud version and IKM's Syntronik version. I just wanted for this to be Cherry Audio's. I took up the Memorymode and the ME80 at about the same time. Its not a full holy poly trinity until I include the JP-8. All things considered, the TAL version feels like plenty, especially since my other two classic polys are also from smaller, labor-of-love companies. I welcome its native Apple M1 support. If you make a layered pad from all three... your monitors pop, basically.
