This recreates the slight degradation of the analog sound generator

circuit on the original JX-3P model after the passage of several decades.

With this condition as the zero point, you can increase the value to

simulate even more degradation for a warmer, more imprecise sound that’s

characteristic of analog circuitry; or you can decrease the value to simulate

a more ideal sound with less degradation over time.

to the sound.

The state of the calibration starting point (0) controlled by the

trimmer differs with the [CONDITION] knob settings.

By connecting the SYSTEM-8 to your computer (Mac/Windows), you can use the JX-3P in

conjunction with the SYSTEM-8.

The “SYSTEM-8 CTRL” shown as a MIDI port is the port used by the JX-3P.

Do not use this port from your DAW.

Plug-Out

What is “plug-out”?

“Plug-out” is technology that allows a software synthesizer such

as JX-3P to be installed and used in the SYSTEM-8.

¹You can play the JX-3P on the SYSTEM-8 by itself, without

using a computer.

¹You can send the settings of the selected bank to the

SYSTEM-8.

¹You can use the knobs and sliders of the SYSTEM-8 to edit

the sound.

Plug-Out Procedure

1. Click the [PLUG-OUT] button.

2. Select a plug-out destination (PLUG-OUT1–PLUG-OUT3) that corresponds to the

desired MODEL button of the SYSTEM-8.

A conrmation message appears.

3. Click the [OK] button.

A progress bar appears, and plug-out processing begins. This takes approximately one minute.

* If the JX-3P is already plugged-out to one of the plug-out destinations (PLUG-OUT1–PLUG-

OUT3), you can’t plug-out a new instance.

* If another software synthesizer is already plugged-out on the SYSTEM-8, a conrmation

message appears. Click the [OK] button to continue.

Send/Get Temporary Patches

1. Connect the SYSTEM-8 to your computer.

2. Turn on the SYSTEM-8’s MODEL [PLUGOUT 1–3] button to which you plugged-out

the JX-3P.

* In order to send or get a temporary patch, you must rst plug-out (p. 13).

Sending the Temporary Patch

You can send the current JX-3P temporary patch to the SYSTEM-8 and play it on the SYSTEM-8.

The sound is output from the SYSTEM-8’s OUTPUT jacks.

3. Click the [SEND] button of the JX-3P.

The temporary patch is transmitted.

Getting the Temporary Patch

If you’ve used the SYSTEM-8 to edit a temporary patch of the plugged-out JX-3P, here’s how to

load that temporary patch into the JX-3P.

3. Click the [GET] button of the JX-3P.

The memory is loaded.

Playing with the SYSTEM-8

If an error message appears, check the following items.

¹Is the MIDI port specied correctly? (p. 15)

¹Is the SYSTEM-8 connected to your computer?

¹Is the SYSTEM-8’s MODEL [PLUG-OUT 1–3] button turned on?

¹Is the JX-3P plugged-out on the SYSTEM-8? (p. 13)

If an error message appears, check the following items.

¹Is the MIDI port specied correctly? (p. 15)

¹Is the SYSTEM-8 connected to your computer?

MIDI Learn Function

Here’s how to associate a MIDI control change with a sound parameter, so that the parameter

can be controlled by that MIDI message.

Procedure

1. Right-click the sound parameter controller (knob or slider).

2. Choose “Learn MIDI CC”.

3. Operate your external MIDI device to transmit a control change message.

NOTE

You can’t associate more than one MIDI control change with a single controller. Only the

most recent setting is used.

Cancelling

1. Right-click the sound parameter controller (knob or slider).

2. Choose “Forget MIDI CC”.

Others

If you want to use the SYSTEM-8 to play the JX-3P (plug-in) in your DAW, set the SYSTEM-8’s

menu item “SYSTEM” Ó “SOUND” Ó “Local Sw” to “SURFACE”.

The internal sound engine of the SYSTEM-8 no longer produces sound; only the JX-3P can

produce sound.
