Hi,

as we got a lot from this community , i want to do something back
Would someone be interested in a jupiter 8 library?
if so i can sample my Jupiter 8 raw oscillators to make patches.

or please advice me how you would like to see it.

thank you all for, it will take time but i mean
to make a Free library. I have never been a big poster here but
this forum is unreplaceable for us Korg lovers

Thanks Manuriga!

Any suggestions how to execute this is a way that everyone can enjoy it?

Well, it seems that a soundfont2 file is the most flexible way you can include soundsets on the Kronos. Since Kronos can import sf2 files. You can share those files on the file share part of this site.

As for sampling I use SampleRobot and for creating the sf2 files Awave.
You can do it by hand and use a freeware sf2 creation program though. A bit more tedious that way.

At this very moment I'm making soundsets of some of my Chroma Polaris. He's about to go into the shop for repairs so I though saving some sounds would be nice. If they turn out nicely I may share them as well.

Would be very thankful for this J8 samples!

Hi

I would be very interested in a jupiter 8 library as I always wanted a jupiter 8 and would be good to have the samples on my Kronos.

Thank you in anticipation.

Jupiter 8 sounds would be great!

That really sounds great!

I also wonder if it would be possible for you to record in a midi file (not the sound, just the notes) for this arpeggio from the JP8:

Thanks!

Oh for the midi i need to check of my jupiter basically submids midi of the arpeggio. will come back to you about this

manuriga · Post by **manuriga** » Tue Oct 07, 2014 7:58 pm

so basically what i was thinking, it is not transmitting midi

But what i did is i sampled the sound and recreate it in kronos.
using karma random arpeggiator to do the trick.
midi would never be correct as it is really Random.
i tried to get it as accurate as possible but improvements of your side are welcome.

here you go, it is saved in user G bank.

here you have an audio file played from the Kronos.
basically just play Dmajor and E chords.

let me know if it works for you

You can easily get Jupiter-8 style sounds using the AL-1. Start with setting the filter to the 12db low-pass.

Personally, I think there's nothing more lame than trying to do vintage
analog synth sounds using samples. Especially when you have THREE virtual analogue synths inside the Kronos (AL-1, MS-20, and Polysix).

I see your point my friend, but it would not be like i sample pads and strings, but the raw oscillators and i really believe that the jupiter 8 has its own character.

in your opinion it looks like kronos can replace all analogs in the world.
which is ofcourse not true. Every synthesizer has its character and as good as kronos is it will not replace a moog, jupiter , prophet.
