The Roland Jupiter-4 software synthesizer gives you a legendary analog synth modeled after the iconic 1978 original. With Analog Circuit Behavior technology, it authentically recreates the warm, full sounds that defined the synth-pop era. Now you can craft those vintage tones and more with modern features that enhance creativity.

Iconic '70s Polyphonic Synth Reborn

The Jupiter-4 kicked off Roland's legacy of premium polysynths. Its single VCO produced sounds as huge as a planet, which the built-in Ensemble chorus expanded into a galaxy of lushness. ACB modeling captures how all the components interact to generate that sonic magic. The result is a plug-in with the beloved quirks and charms of the original hardware—and then some.

Familiar Yet Futuristic

While the interface mirrors the vintage synth for intuitive control, under the hood are capabilities that boost its potential. Extend the oscillator range, adjust noise levels, set velocity sensitivity and control sub-oscillator volume. The flexible arpeggiator and tempo-synced LFO, effects and modulation routings streamline sound design. From factory specs to road-worn, the Circuit Mod and Condition parameters dial in the right amount of vintage vibe.

Ensemble and More

The Jupiter-4 was known for its lush Ensemble chorus, which this plug-in perfectly recreates. It also adds a full suite of effects like phaser, flanger, overdrive, delay and reverb. Between the extended synthesis features and wide-ranging effects, you can craft classic '70s tones or invent modern sounds limited only by your imagination.

Integrate or Standalone

Use the Jupiter-4 plug-in within your DAW or turn your SYSTEM-8 into a hardware version with 8-voice polyphony. The interface dynamically changes to match the SYSTEM-8 for an authentic hands-on experience. Whether software or hardware, you get a legendary synth that helped define an era, reimagined for today's music.
