The JD-990 is an enhanced version of the JD-800 and was the top o' the line JD-synth. Its rack-mount design and impressive power and functionality within the studio paved way for the hugely successful JV-series rack modules which lead, ultimately, to the XV-series monster-modules! The JD-990 is a digital synth with 6MB of ROM sounds with "analog-like" edit parameters and features. These include lowpass filtering, ring modulation, osc. sync, frequency cross-mod, etc. The JD-990 is also compatible with JV80 and JD800 expansion boards.
The JD-990 has a large LCD display which makes editing very easy and intuitive, you can actually see the envelopes and LFO rates. There's an on-board multi-effects processor with Delay, Reverb, Phaser, Distortion, Chorus, and EQ. For the studio, the JD-990 has MIDI IN/OUT/THRU and eight outputs in four stereo pairs. The JD-990 can hold one internal expansion board and the best choice is to put the Vintage expansion in it because that gives you about 512 patches (Only 255 from JV-series!) of which 256 are specially programmed for the JD-990
...from us JD lovers maybe they might give it a thought or two... BTW: This thread used to be about the JD-990 and its glory, now it has slowly morphed into a JD-800/08 thread. Sorry, that was partially my fault. Back to 990! Cheers, Bert
...didn't intend for this to happen, so I'm not even that happy with it! Remade the Uranium pad on the JD990 (the chord is all over the Internet, uses a Mellotron patch from the vintage synth board), Akai S1000 doing a (non-Splice!!) Amen and Jupiter 6 doing the big synths. 101 doing a few...
Can someone convert these jd-990 to jd-800 and jd-800 vst thank you! https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nu8qx6jt6z6f2vyf691cu/TO-CONVERT.zip?rlkey=0um1r4ie5rj0m5qcjr3unp21t&st=tng0qb8o&dl=0
