Roland JD-Xi Hybrid Synthesizer

A powerful and compact synth

The JD-XI is small, grand and affordable that brings the sounds of the famous Roland SuperNATURAL and a myriad of other tools under one analog synth. With 37 mini keys, this compact instrument offers powerful bass and highly controllable lead tones, in addition to essential PCM polyphony: pads, strings, brass, and more.

Create impressive loops in no time with the built-in sequencer and drum machine, and explore expressive vocal textures with the AutoPitch, gooseneck mic, and Vocoder. The Roland JD-XI is made for the pleasure of big sounds, while being small in size and immense in possibilities.

Digital and analog synths in one keyboard

With its unique crossover engine, the JD-XI offers the best of analog, with its classic warm responses, and the best of digital, with its clarity and flexibility. In the new analog section, we find the essential waves: sawtooth, triangle, square, with a pulse-width modulation and an analog filter, in addition to an independent sub oscillator. On the digital side, there are two parts offering a wide range of high quality SuperNATURAL sound: with the pads, strings, electric piano, sound effects, and much more.

A Goose-neck microphone for vocal effects

The JD-Xi includes a solid goose-neck pickup, bringing more fun to your performance. With the vocoder, you can sing along and control the sound of your voice through the keys on the keyboard. With the AutoPitch, you can experiment with exaggerated robotic voices, and with the Auto Note feature you can literally sing the sounds of the JD-Xi without touching the keyboard!

Create loops with the 4-track sequencer

With the intuitive sequencer and a large selection of onboard sounds, the Roland JD-Xi will allow you to create the most sophisticated sounds. The sequencer provides four separate tracks: two digital synths, an analog synth and a rhythm machine, allowing you to build rich-sounding loops for any musical genre. Real-time recording and step recording mode are provided, with the TR-REC mode to find the classic drum machines of the Roland TR-series.
