Dear Martin, AU Mac (for us Logic X stuffs) still, pretty please?:) Thank you so much for you efforts, Sp. PaulDebrione 16 February 2018 at 8:51pm. Now I'm not known for my abject stupidity but I'm obviously doing something wrong here. I want to map this marvelous synthesizer to my BCR2000. I've already done it with a number of other synths.

Overview
JP6K is a virtual synthesizer dedicated to emulating the famous Super Saw sound, first found in the Roland JP-8000 synthesizer in 1997. It aims to capture the essence of the sound and the behavior of the original oscillator. Even after decades, the Super Saw is still an important tool for producers and musicians all around the world, and is a crucial part of many kinds of electronic music!
JP6K is available as a 32 and native 64 Bit VST instrument for Windows.
All sounds are straight from the JP6K. Some pad sounds use a slight amount of reverb.
Super Saw Oscillator
There are several factors that make the Super Saw in the JP6K different than other synths that provide a similar sound. The original Super Saw from Roland was aliasing, thus creating a bright and “airy” sound. To prevent the oscillator from sounding harsh below the fundamental harmonic, a high pass filter was possibly used to remove unwanted frequencies. The JP6K uses the same design to achieve that special oscillator waveform giving it a unique tone.
Special Detune
Another important aspect of the classic Super Saw, was its unique detune curve. It was non-linear, which gave the user greater control over the detune amount. Even when the detune control was half way, the spread of the detune was small, which made it possible to make very smooth sounding pads. The curve then gradually increased, and at higher values, the detune rapidly spread out to maximum. This unique curve is accurately modelled in JP6K, making it nearly identical to the detune in the hardware.
