JX-305 Groove Keyboard
(discontinued)

Fat Patterns from the World's Finest Groove-ologists

A pattern-oriented "GrooveSynth" is only as good as its patterns. That's why Roland enlisted the help of some of the world's most sought-after sound designers to design the JX-305's 768 Preset patterns. These patterns cover all facets of groove-oriented music, from Techno, Drum 'n' Bass and Hip-Hop to Reggae, Latin grooves and more. Musicians can use these Preset patterns "as is" or edit and combine them using the 8-part sequencer into new User patterns. Grab a bass line here, tweak a drum beat there_professional-sounding song creation is easy on this high performance synth.


Expanded Wave form Memory

One listen to the 1X-305 will prove that its waveform memory is massive: over 12MB* of high-quality waves. These sounds include all 512 cutting edge dance sounds and 26 rhythm kits from the new MC-505 Groovebox, as well as an extensive collection of over 120 acoustic instrument sounds and 2 additional rhythm kits_making the JX-305 a very well- rounded instrument. From the latest groove music to rock and pop instrumentation, this synth does it all. And, in true Roland form, the JX-305 sound quality is nothing less than amazing.
