I picked up my JX-8P about 4 months ago and i love it. I primarily use it for leads and soft strings. I want to do more with this keyboard. Creating sounds is a snap but I could use a manual. Can someone please tell me where I could get one? Nobody in my neck of the woods has an answer. I've tried the Roland site but no luck.

the 8p is such a crunching synth excellent bass from this guy (i also love the cello's) for those that have heard what a pain it is to program the 8p without the pg-800 dont worry about it, with no manual and no pg-800 i've programmed this creature without fail just a little patience with the interface and about 30 minutes you'll tame the beast( and it is a heavy beast at that!) for the price you can find jx-8p's for these days who needs a the almighty JUNO put a little time into programming it and you wont be dissapointed

Ive had my "8P" since new (around 1986 I think) and it has never let me down reliability-wise. Nowadays I generally use my Korg M1 over the Roland but the 8P has sounds that the M1 could never match. The strings are awesome and I managed to create the perfect, mega-fat, Van Halen "Jump" sound (I'm not sure what Eddy used!). This synth seems to be a real transitional model between old and new generation technology. I tried to sell it once and didn't recieve one call, but now I will definitely keep it.
