With over 30 years since the release of the original Roland Jupiter 8 (or JP-8), one of the most admired and innovative synthesizers of its time, performers word-wide were ecstatic to see the unveiling of the latest Roland Jupiter 80 Synthesizer back at Musikmesse 2011 along with the more recent Roland Jupiter 50 Synthesizer earlier this year.  With its road-proven hardware and unfathomable collection of Roland’s proprietary SuperNATURAL sounds, the Roland Jupiter 80 Synthesizer has collected a mass of fans on every continent including the critically acclaimed Isabella Summers from Florence + the Machine.

However, whilst it is hard not to look and hear the Roland Jupiter 80 Synthesizer without salivating, it’s now going to get a whole lot more difficult to resist temptation thanks to the incredible extra incentive Roland and Millennium Music are now offering.

When you buy the latest Roland Jupiter 80 Synthesizer from Millennium Music, which will be upgraded to the latest software update with new functionality and improved integration with the Cakewalk Sonar series in May, you receive a free (and we mean free) Apple iPad 2 tablet to ensure you get the most out of your Roland Jupiter 80 Synthesizer with the newly announced iPad Synth Tone Editor!

If you’ve been contemplating buying a new synthesizer that’ll perform great on the stage and look superb in the studio, but want to get the most out of your money, then look no further, this truly is the best time to buy a Roland Jupiter 80 Synthesizer.

That's right the Akai <b>MINIAK</b> Micro Synthesiser - is back! The Miniak is a powerful performance and production synth with phrase and step sequencing, a built-in drum machine/rhythm sequencer, an arpeggiator, a 40-band vocoder, stereo effects, and a virtual analog synth engine developed in partnership with the world-class Alesis synth team. And while the compact design of the MINIAK , shines on stage, it is also just as at home in the production studio giving the producer and recording musician 24-bit audio resolution.

Akai have produced a limited quantity of this excellent little synth becuase the huge demand was never satisfied last year.

The MINIAK sound is huge - it gives you eight multi-timbral voices with three oscillators. So you can create your own interesting and unique sounds or browse thru over 600 preset sounds and then store up to 1,000 of your own programs in the MINIAK.

The synth also has two multi-mode filters, three envelope generators, two LFOs, stereo effects, and a 40-band vocoder. Plus the MINIAK has a sequencer with step and dynamic real time phrase sequencing, a drum machine/rhythm sequencer, and an arpeggiator to aid in creating interesting and diverse musical patterns and landscapes!

To complete the package the instrument features high-resolution, 24-bit balanced 1/4" inputs and outputs. The MINIAK has a 37-key semi-weighted, velocity sensitive keyboard and so is excellent for performance. It can also be used as a sound source for external MIDI control.

The MINIAK has a full arsenal of magnificent stereo effects such as Chorus, Feedback, Theta Flanger (Phaser + Flanger), Thru Zero Flanger, Super Phaser, Notch Frequency, String Phaser, 40-Band Vocoder, Analysis Gain, Sibilance Boost, Band Shift, Synthesis Input, Analysis Signal In, Analysis Mix, six types of Delay, and three types of Reverbs.

With all the massive sound generation and processing power of the MINIAK, the sounds you can create are as wild as your imagination and as easy as twisting a few knobs. PLUS building  sonic soundscapes with the sequencer and arpeggiator couldn't be simpler.
