The Roland JD-990 Super JD is an updated version of the Roland JD-800 synthesizer in the form of a module with expanded capabilities, which was released in 1993 by Roland Corporation. JD-990 is a multitimbral synthesizer utilising PCM sample-based synthesis technology.[1] In a sense it is not a true module version of a JD-800 as it has many expanded features and as a result the two are incompatible in exchanging presets. It is equipped with 6 MB of ROM containing sampled PCM waveforms, four sets of stereo outputs that are assignable to individual, internal, instruments, and standard MIDI in/out/through ports. JD-990 has a large LCD display[2] and programming takes place through a keypad on the front panel of the unit. The unit can generate multi-timbral sounds reminiscent of the vintage analogue synthesizers but is also capable of generation of modern digital textures. There are several expansion boards available for JD-990 that can be installed in the provided expansion slot in the chassis of the unit.[3]
Features [ edit ]
The JD-990 had the following[4] features which were not available on the JD-800:
Expanded wave ROM (6 MB vs. 3 MB)
Ability to use an 8 MB expansion board from the SR-JV80 series
JV-80 patch import
4 additional outputs
True stereo engine
Individual panning of each tone in a patch
Oscillator sync
Frequency cross-modulation (FXM)
Matrix Modulation
Modulation of the same destination from multiple sources
Oscillator structures that allow ring modulation and serial dual filters
Additional LFO waveforms: sine, trapezoid and chaos
MIDI CC control of parameters
Tempo sync delay
Polyphonic portamento
Analog Feel. Adds a very subtle pitch modulation to the basic waveforms intended to recreate an analogue synth's 'drift'
Performance memories
Additional multitimbral slots
One patch can keep full effects in multi mode
Expandability [ edit ]
The JD-990 is compatible with the following:
The SR-JV80 series of expansion boards. The SR-JV80-04 Vintage Synth board includes 255 patches programmed specially for the JD-990.
The SL-JD80 series of waveform & patch cards released for the JD-800.
The SO-PCM1 series of waveform cards.
The JD9D series of patch cards developed specifically for the JD-990.
Factory Sounds [ edit ]
The Factory presets of the JD-990 were created by Eric Persing and Adrian Scott.
Notable users [ edit ]
The JD-990 has been used by artists such as Klaus Schulze ,[5] Paul Shaffer ,[6] [7] [8] Steve Duda ,[9] Vangelis , The Prodigy , Apollo 440 , ATB , and Mirwais .[3] Apollo 440 used the JD-990 for atmospheric sounds on the track "The Machine in the Ghost", on the album Gettin' High on Your Own Supply .[10] On the Faithless song "Insomnia ", the pizzicato hook is from a JD-990, with added reverb .[11]
