ROLAND JD-990 synthesizer                                27-Nov-1994
-------------------------

I have made 6 disks of samples from the Roland JD990 digital
synthesizer.
The JD-990 is more a sample playback unit actually with a resonant
filter and lots of parameters for adjusting the sounds.

All of the sampled sounds are done without any filters or other
adjustments.
Many of the "soundtrack" sounds on the JD-990 can be made by experimenting
with several sounds layered on the TX16W, with different envelope
settings, filter settings, lfo etc.. only your imagination sets the limits!

I have gathered a total of 135 samples (phew!!), organized as 6 disks:

jd990_1.zip   18 samples (human voices/"breath" sounds)
jd990_2.zip   28 samples (percussive sounds-bells,marimba../hihats,cymbals)
jd990_3.zip   34 samples (kick drums/snares/toms)
jd990_4.zip   23 samples ("soundtrack" sounds/pads/synth waves)
jd990_5.zip   26 samples (acoustic instruments/organs/e.pianos/basses)
jd990_6.zip    6 samples (percussive loops)
