JT-2 — JUPITER-STYLE FIREPOWER IN A EURORACK BOX

The Roland Jupiter-8 defined a sound that built careers — lush, powerful, instantly recognisable. The JT-2 captures that DNA in a compact Eurorack format any serious producer can afford. Dual VCOs deliver saw, triangle/sine, square, noise, PWM, oscillator sync and FM — everything you need to build the rich, complex patches the Jupiter is famous for.

The switchable 12/24 dB resonant lowpass filter is the star of the show, giving you both the soft glassy sweeps and the punchier edge in one synth. An additional highpass filter adds fine-tuning headroom that the original never offered. Two ADSR envelopes with key follow modulate VCOs, VCF and VCA, while the LFO with sine, saw, square and random waveforms drives expressive modulation. Cross modulation and oscillator sync between VCOs unlock the gnarlier corners of analog sound design.

Switch to paraphonic mode for two-note performances, or use the 16-voice Poly Chain to link multiple JT-2 units for true polyphonic firepower. The four-pattern arpeggiator (Up, Down, Up-Down, Random) ranges over four octaves for instant inspiration. External CV/gate, full MIDI implementation and a complete Eurorack-transferable layout make the JT-2 a no-compromise reissue at a price that lets you actually own one.
