dazzjazz Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Hi all, After 30-odd years of seller's remorse, I bought a Roland JX-8P and got the KIWI Technics upgrade professionally installed. It's simply fabulous! I've made a demo track to show off some of the new features the upgrade adds to the 8P, especially the analog feel and detune, faster envelopes and arpeggiator. Enjoy!

gino Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 That's awesome Darren. I still have my JX-8P from 1985. Unfortunately my PG800 was stolen. That KIWI upgrade sounds very cool. I can tell you are going to enjoy it for many many years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzjazz Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 The Retroaktiv MPG-8 is affordable and does the trick for the most part - the knobs are too small and close together, but it's better than nothing by a LONG way.
