“Roland JX-8P Polyphonic Synthesizer in great cosmetic condition. Awesome sounding synth from the 80s that excels at pads and strings. To note while all of the presets are working without issue, the internal memory likely needs to be reset / recalibrated as is indicated in the 5th picture. In addition, the aftertouch is not working and needs to be worked on for full function. Comes with a custom flight case and memory cartridge. Thanks!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Roland JX-8P Vintage Synthesizer ONE OWNER LIGHT USE!

IN ORIG CONDITION! BEEN IN MY HOME STORAGE FOR DECADES. Cosmetics are very good. No scratches or chipped paint. Should be in the original working condition.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“I’ve had this Roland JX-8P for about 5 years – an incredible vintage synthesizer with some really excellent pad sounds and a great chorus effect. Now it’s time to go. Comes with (and will be shipped in) a hard carrying case lined with bubble wrap.

See pictures for cosmetic details, some minor scratches and bumps here and there with some paint loss on the left side due to rubbing (the old owner gigged with it back in the day) but other than that this synthesizer is in excellent cosmetic condition.

As far as the working condition, things are for the most part great. Turns on, produces sound, programming works, all buttons work, no major problems. However, some things to note:

Sticky key – one of the keys on the left side sticks on occasion, usually fixes itself but is a minor inconvience and I’m not sure where the problem stems from.
Aftertouch – may or may not be working, not tested.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Legendary and collectable synth, 110V Power. Not currently working.

“See photos for all details on condition. Has scuffs and scratches on multiple sides, but most are only visible under close inspection. Looks very nice for it’s age overall and more importantly sounds greats and plays as it should!

Case latch has lost some of its chrome plating(see photo), but latches as it should. Case is fairly lightweight yet very protective.

Parts/Functions TESTED-

All black/white keys and buttons except any parts that would require a cartridge(since I do not have one). No reason to believe cartridge functions aren’t working though. Cartridge slot not tested for same reason.

Aftertouch has been tested and verified functioning using MIDI-OX to verify aftertouch signal being sent. To me it seems a little weak in terms of response but I don’t have another JX-8P to compare it to and I do not play synths regularly(guitar is main instrument). So not sure if this is just the nature of this beast or if the aftertouch contact strip could benefit from a cleaning.

All sliders and pitch bender tested. Display works as it should.

All rear audio outputs and l,m,h switch.

MIDI in, out, and thru ports.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“I’m selling my Twin Peaks dream machine, which includes:

Roland JX-8P 6-voice analog synthesizer in very good working condition. A reputable local synth tech has replaced its left and right BBD chorus chips, cleaned the key contacts, and given it an overall clean bill of health!
Roland PG-800 controller w/ original case, both in very good condition. These are scarce and IMO essential for controlling the JX-8P.
2 Roland M64C cartridges for all your patch storage needs!All items have normal wear and tear typical of vintage equipment.

“For your consideration a nice Roland JX8P Synth.
Powers on, all functions are there- however full disclosure the keybed could use a cleaning, there are a few keys which have intermittent response, and the aftertouch is working however the strip needs to be cleaned. Please ask any and all questions
Cosmetically speaking this is a decent 7/10 condition, its used and exhibits signs of use, but not abuse. Considering its almost 40 years old its in really nice shape.. Includes a decent hard case and power cord. We do not have the manual for it however that is easily downloaded online. This will be extremely well packed for shipping – local pickup in the Harleysville area of Pennsylvania is available too.”

“Estate Sale find: Powers up, all buttons respond , all keys work! Sound output to headphones (only) tested and sounds good. All other inputs and outputs are untested. Please understand that this vintage from the 1980s and may show some wear and scuffs etc. But in my opinion it looks very good. Please look closely at the pics and make your judgement and ask any questions before you commit.

See my other postings of my Roland TR-727 Rhythm Composer and my Alesis Micron Synthesizer which were all purchased from the same Estate collection.

This unit weighs 15 pounds and is 39 inches long X 15 inches wide and x 4 inches thick. So shipping costs will reflect this. Also will ship with abundant protection to assure this unit will make the shipping trip!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Roland JX-8P – Vintage Analog Polysynth with Aftertouch, MIDI, and Intuitive Interface

Step into the lush morphing polyphony of the Roland JX-8P! This board represents a step up from the previous iteration, the JX-3P. This board is best described as a Juno on steroids. With dual oscillators per voice as opposed to the Juno’s single oscillator, this synth can achieve levels of stacking that is second to none, for the era. During the dawn of digital synthesis, the JX-8P pushed back by taking analog to the cutting edge.

Without the liability of pots, faders, switches, you’re more free to explore and meander on your musical journey, and trust that your gear will perform night after night, gig after gig. It is used by Tangerine Dream, Depeche Mode, The Cure, 808 State, Go West, Future Sound of London, and Europe, so it’s sure to perform well in creative and professional capacities, alike.

This board has been meticulously cleaned including all jacks, connectors, and faders. It’s been rigorously tested and will arrive ready to use on stage or in your studio. With exceptional MIDI implementation, it will slot right into your existing rig with ease.The Roland JX-8P is not just a synthesizer; it’s your conduit to every sonic excellence; perfect complement to to your creative performances. Will it be part of your next hit?” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“My brother passed away recently and this was part of his musical instrument collection. He bought it new back in the day. There was no cord with it so I bought one on Amazon. There is a genuine Roland M-16C Memory Cartridge with it. I haven’t tested the memory cartridge so…I really don’t know much about this particular keyboard. I hooked up a pair of headphones to the headphone jack and ran through all of the keys to be sure they worked. There was one or two that required a bit more force to operate but it didn’t seem like anything serious. This keyboard has been gathering dust for YEARS in my brother’s bedroom so it probably just needs to meet a can of compressed air or be played a few times to get the kinks out. All in all, this seems to be a very nice and very solid keyboard.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Available here is a Roland JX-8P analog synthesizer. Featuring 6 voices of polyphony, MIDI implementation and patch storage, this synth is a must have for anyone looking for a dependable vintage synth. The keyboard is velocity and aftertouch sensitive and the JX-8P uses DCO’s. The synth comes with a power cable and sustain pedal. The synth itself is in good condition with a few signs of normal use and wear. There are some noticeable scratches on the synth as well as some minor discoloration across the keybed. These issues are cosmetic though and will not impact the overall playability of this synth.”

“This unit is being sold for parts or as-is. The mainboard was tested on a known working chassis of a different jx8p, and I was never able to get it to boot properly. The rest of this unit is untested. I don’t have the time to try fixing it anymore, so I’m willing to take a hit and pass it on to someone more motivated than I am. This unit is configured for 220v, but can be converted to 120v with a new transformer and fuse (can be easily sourced online). Please note the cosmetic defects shown in the pictures. Some of the screws are missing, so the chassis is partially being held closed by tape to help protect it in shipping. Also included is the power cord and what is best described as a “vinyl padded sleeping bag” that fits snugly around the JX8P.” Click here to visit listing on eBay
