Using the Roland SL-JD80-Series Sound Library with JV-Series Synthesizers

Each set in the SL-JD80 Series Sound Library consists of 2 cards, a Waveform card and a Data card. The SO-JD80 Waveform Cards supply waveforms that can be used in Patches in the JV-80, JV-880, JV-90, JV-1000 and JV-1080 synthesizers. (The PN-JD80 cards contain Patch and Setup data for the JD-800 and JD-990 only).

In order to access the waveforms on the SO-JD80-Series card, you must be in Patch mode. It is suggested that you begin by initializing the current Patch in Temporary memory. An Initialized Patch uses only one Internal Tone. The next step is to replace this Internal Tone with a waveform from the SO-JD80-Series card. These procedures will not affect the Patches in your Internal memory unless you write these changes into memory.
Insert the SO-JD80-Series Waveform Card into the PCM Slot.

NOTE: If you use the SO-JD80-Series waveforms in a JV-Series synthesizer, the card must be inserted in the PCM slot for the waveforms to sound.

I. JV-880
To initialize the Patch in Temporary memory:

  1. Press UTILITY.
  2. Dial to PATCH INITIALIZE.
  3. Press ENTER.
To listen to individual waveforms on the SO-JD80-Series waveform card:
  1. Press EDIT.
  2. Cursor to Common, then Dial to Tone.
  3. Cursor right once, then Dial to WG wave group.
  4. Cursor right once, then Dial to PCM.
  5. Cursor left once, then Dial to WG wave.
  6. Cursor right once, then Dial through the various Waveforms on the card.
When you find a waveform you would like to use, the Patch must be written into Internal memory, or the new settings will be lost when a different Patch is chosen, or when the power is turned off.

II. JV-80, JV-90, JV-1000
The JV-80 will allow you to initialize the Patch in Temporary memory. The JV-90 and JV-1000 will not.

If you are using a JV-80:

  1. Press WRITE.
  2. Cursor to INITIALIZE, then press ENTER twice.
If you are using a JV-90 or JV-1000:
Choose Patch Preset A71 Nylon Gtr 1. This Patch closely resembles an initialized Patch.

To listen to individual waveforms on the SO-JD80-Series card:

  1. Press EDIT. (PATCH EDIT on the JV-80).
  2. Press WAVE/LFO in the FUNCTION section.
  3. Cursor to GROUP, then press INC to select PCM.
  4. Cursor to No, then use INC and DEC to listen to the various waveforms on the card.
When you find a waveform you would like to use, the Patch must be written into Internal memory, or the new settings will be lost when a different Patch is chosen, or when the power is turned off.

III. JV-1080
To initialize the Patch in Temporary memory:

  1. Press UTILITY.
  2. Cursor to INITIALIZE, then press ENTER.
  3. Dial to DEFAULT, then press ENTER.
To listen to individual waveforms on the SO-JD80-Series card:
  1. Press PARAMETER, then press WAVE.
  2. Hold SHIFT and Cursor Up to Group, then Dial to CARD.
  3. Cursor Right to Number, then Dial through the various waveforms on the card.
When you find a waveform you would like to use, the Patch must be written into Internal memory, or the new settings will be lost when a different Patch is chosen, or when the power is turned off.
