The Roland Cloud JD-800 Virtual Instrument is a faithful software recreation of an early icon. The JD-800 provided groundbreaking digital sound design at the time of its release in 1991 and became an instant hit. Used extensively by beloved electronic acts such as Tangerine Dream, Depeche Mode, Jean Michel-Jarre, and Vangelis, the JD-800’s distinctive PCM waveforms and expansive effects section have been heard on countless albums and film soundtracks throughout the 90s.
