      This isn’t just any Jupiter 8. It’s the exact synth Sembello used on his Flashdance megahit, “Maniac.” It was also the very unit used on the infamous “Axel F” track from Beverly Hills Cop. The same legendary instrument graced Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson’s iconic “Thriller” album. It is the ultimate hit-maker.

      Jupiter 1982 represents the ultimate evolution of the Soundpaint Juniper series. While we thought we had reached the peak of this instrument, we opened the doors to a fresh perspective. Guest developer Chimy took the hardware into his own studio, scrutinizing every corner to find room for improvement. The result is a massive revision: 70 new parts and over 9,000 additional UDS™ samples.

      The Soundpaint Jupiter 1982 has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. We’ve re-recorded all original oscillators using everything we’ve learned, capturing the unique way every voice colors and degrades with age. Every patch is meticulously reprogrammed using our revolutionary C.A.F™ Modelled Filters, unlocking six authentic J8 Filter Models.

      Ps. Upgrades are available for all existing Juniper 8 customers. You will receive an individual upgrade email. If you do not see it, contact us at support@soundpaint.com. You only pay the difference between your current library and the new Juniper 1982. All original factory patches are intact, but hundreds of new Programs and Parts covering over 9000 samples of new material, including UDS sampling raw oscillators, dozens of new Pads, Strings, Brass & Leads.

          I have given them the feedback that there are users who really appreciate when they offer a less detailed version of their ultra deep sampling versions. I know, I’m at that point and would prefer the standard sample sizes for synth libraries. I have a developer friend who is super impressed with SoundPaint’s CS80 that has me contemplating picking it up — but I have 3 SSDs that are all pretty full and an additional SSD I need to install that has 2 TB that I’m concerned will be filled very fast if I keep up with sample / plugin. But the CS80 is the SoundPaint synth library I most want at this point.

          I’m going to have a call with Tawnia, 8Dio’s CEO, soon and will ask her about the possibility of smaller size, non-UDS versions of these libraries. I realize that pros may always want the ultra-deep-sampled versions, but for a hobbyist like me, I’m really satisfied with their standard versions (which I have used when available).
