I really don't know what to make of this message & should probably
take offence at the following, but really can't be bothered:
"the people who are in love with the JP-8 will obviously give you a
biased opinion. and mostly their full of shit, and always make shit
music after they have come home from their mind-draining day-job/work.
but i suspect you're one of these too"

but i suspect you're one of these too the JP-6 is wicked, and fun.
mine stays on all the time because i cant be arsed/bottomed to save
or sample all the sounds I make. and its a fucking work-horse as well.
i wouldn't mind hearing a more realistic comparison and appreciation
of the JP-6, and not just the usual, boring as tits, wank over the
JP-8.
also, whats with the cunts who say to look in the archives? when you
do, all you find is other people saying look in the archives. there
ends up being no discussion to be read.
i was wondering if anyone knew how to add an audio in without removing
anything else, so that i could cross-modulate vco-1 or vco-2 to an
external sound. or better yet, 2 audio ins, to cross-mod together two
different external sounds. anyone have any suggestions?
JP-6 arse fucks the JP-8
hint; add a tiny smidgen of chorus
hopefully Roland will take their hand out of their pants, and make a
JP-9 with their smelly hand.
