Thanks Roland team ; )

Watched this demo many times, finally can afford JD-XA and it arrives & few presets great but when I looked up this video again for inspiration and saw that I could download your sound bank for free! Man, man, man .... the very best synth demo ever in terms of demonstrating what it can do for sound design & playing (without any trickery). I think I read somewhere that you designed some patches for the new Fantom for Roland, that's so encouraging to hear. I've been rocking the MC-909 so hard last few years I was going to sell the banks I toiled over years to craft but you inspire me to give away since there could have been no better experience than what u gave me & others starting off their JD XA adventures.

Simply mind blowing - I had no idea the JD-XA could even approach all that. Just goes to show in the right hands...just brilliant work. Thank you for sharing!!

This is a testament to what a chameleon the JD-XA is, and such a magnificent instrument. And how well it works in the hands of a true virtuoso. Fantastic performances! Thanks for sharing.

Holy crap i did not expect to see Enya of all things in this video. Great job!

Shows what a brilliant programmer like you can do! Bravo. Really great to see the old classics like Oxygene 2 and On the Run for your old fans who have been with your channel since the very early days...

amazing work - roland should be very grateful to have this sitting on youtube for any potential purchasers to see.

Oxygene sounds absolutely amazing!

That was the best concert I’ve seen in a long time!!! Encore!!! 🎶✨✨👑

Really, really well done. Great choice of songs, phenomenal execution on sounds, and strong performance.

Its so good to see/hear someone actually doing covers...wich is what 80%+ is what keys like this are used for in the real world.

Good god!! Enrico Flow and Oxygen II absolutley stunning!! 🤩

Absolutely brilliant, thanks Gattobus! 3:16 is the reason I purchased the JD-XA, Roland needs to hire you!

I had this one but sold it because I could not read the labels...my old eyes were not up to it and I did not want to spend 200 dollars on the readable template offered by 3rd party. But Gattobus proves again, it is not the synth so much as the player. 99% of JDXA owners could not do one of his demo's I would venture. Gattobus understands the technologh thoroughly and is a real musician as well. Been a long time fan. Just great.

I've heard from other reviews that they've updated the labeling to a more bright-red-orange hue to improve readability. There's also very nice overlays that can put any color or contrast combination you want for around 130 dollars.

This synth sounds like everything that I love about synth.

Gattobus, you have successfully shown us a sample of the huge range and depth of this machine. Well done indeed. How could one not be impressed with the quality of these sounds? The authentic representations of so many classic synths shows how vast this machine is, while showcasing your own considerable talents.

You do Jean Michel proud. Now I'm sold on the Roland JD-XA.

Fantastic job! I especially loved the JMJ performance. Keep it up.

Excellent variety here. The variety of genres covered here demonstrates the versatility.

That Jean Michel Jarre piece is great, how you push the bend wheel and the sound comes out like that , amazing... GATTOBUS you're the best.

I keep coming back just to listen to your rendition of Morodor's Chase and that amazing outro. I wish you could make it a stand-alone track. So cool.

When Oxygen arrived I was just in ecstasy. A lot of work with that patches to sound so incredible.

You nailed that Oxygene-part, awesome work!

JD-XA: All to remake 70's to 90's sounds and songs. Very good demo works. Congratulations.

I've been playing this for six months and you just crushed my self esteem 😝 great stuff! Thanks!

You are simply brilliant, Oh I wish I had your talent. You are amazing to watch you make it look so simple, please never stop sharing thank you

Very cool!!! I could see this sitting next to my Motif XF8 and Montage 8. I think with this, along with my VST's and the Yamaha boards would give me an endless supply of sounds :) I gotta' say, your vids are head and shoulders above the others I've been viewing! Simply great playing and demo. Thanks and best to you.

I was listening to this with KZread on autoplay when this video came on, I couldn't see what synth it was. As far as I could tell, it was a very good analog synth. I really don't understand analog snobbery these days. This is a skillful demo, and the synth sounds great.

THANK YOU! I am sitting here at almost 2am breathing new live into my JD-XA! What an amazing synth and what an amazing guy figuring it out :)

Well done 🎹🎹

Really nice job on the Pink Floyd!

At times when I think the real music generation is dead... this is awesome!!

I'm buying a JD-XA after that demo fantastic keyboard.

Wow, an Air cover, I wasn't expecting that.

That Jean Michel Jarre was ON POINT! Bravo.

great stuff, your rendition of Midnight Express theme solo is incredible and so is Around The World. I keep coming back to hear them again and again. Thank for the eargasm!

Well I guess Roland should fire the guys that demo'd the JD XA at launch time, because when it came out I was hardly impressed. I hope next time they bring out an analog/digital hybrid they call Gattobus...

Wow! This was a wild ride! And you performed each segment so very well, I am duly impressed and jealous of your phenomenal expertise! Bravo!

That's really a fantastic job! Oxygene is superb!

Outstanding !.. I gotta get me one of these - Amazing keyboard skills ...especially 'Oxygen.' !

Outstanding! You've just about mastered this thing. More!

such a joy to listen to you perform - nicely put together and great selection of songs! congrats my friend :)

Oxygene especially is amazing ! 😎👍

Impressive. Must be a joy if you can play around with these pieces of equipment the way you do!

Grazie per avere messo a disposizione le patch delle tue cover! Dopo i primi anni di entusiasmo ho rinunciato a diventare un tastierista anche amatoriale e avere a disposizione suoni per le cover per me è una manna!

Chase!!!!! one of the best ever! outstanding job......The Roland JD is a wonderful instrument!

must to say another thing...roland guys must to put the eyes on you, not only by the songs, but because if you need one particular sound, or melody, there is no problem to you...you just get it, and show to us, its piece of cake for you!!!in portugal, when a person is good in one thing, normally we say "you do it well with your closed eyes"!!!

I’m not really a huge fan of modern Roland synths, but I have to say that you did a great job showing this off and Roland will definitely sell more of these thanks to this video. :)

Fantastic playing - great choice of tunes!

Beautiful patches. Thank you for creating them and uploading them.They have gone straight into my JD-XA.

Totally awesome sounding and impressed by this synth capabilities. Great video my friend ;)

OMFG!!! On The Run!!! my sweet lord.... fantastic!

Holy crap. This blew me away. This is awesome

DAYUM!! That Oxygene II and On the Run. Good stuff

BRAVO.....BRAVO.....BRAVO......BRAVO.......OMG!!!! I can't stop listening to this. You're truly amazing not only in talent but also in choosing the best iconic songs for your excellent cover........ONCE AGAIN BRAVO!!!!!! If only I had your talent to do what you did live for my family and friends.....IF ONLY!!!!

Great to see you Gianni. Great demo. You seem to be very acquainted with it. Adding in your playing abilities. It's a gem. Loved the Moroder cover. I see your using those crazy Jedi skills again. GRIN!!

MEGA DEMO. Nice songs and well play... THX

BRAVO...BRAVISSIMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!i have the jd-xa too....i have no idea this beautiful synth do this lovely sounds...until this moment...uuuaauuuuu....now i see i have to practice and stay more time with my baby!thanks to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

+midiwall the best video of jd-xa i ever see, for sure!!!

Oxygen II is just magic!

I have to admit that Roland continues to come out with new and original synths. Most manufacturers just continue to advance previous synths. Korg's Kronos is merely just an evolution from their M3. Then again when Korg added their KARMA it boosted their value tremendously. Now that most technology is moving in the digital computer realm, I always look for new synths that can operate on their own and remind me of what I grew up with.

JMJ cover is just flawless - well done ..

very great sounds, roland synth jd xa is very beautiful,ciao

really amazing synth, very impressive performance

Love the mix of little 90's style buttons and hands-on sliders option on this machine!

You are an amazing programmer and the sounds are unbelievable. I haven't owned a synth since my Roland JX-3P in the 80's, but your demo has convinced me of how far synthesis has come since then. I will be ordering a JD-XA very soon. Thanks! I've also downloaded your files of these sounds in anticipation of the day it arrives.

Beginner here, learning about synths before buying one. That is so cool you just press a button and all the presets are already saved!!

Great synthesizer and great player...

Stumbled upon this vid while researching the Roland JD-XA. Awesome job programming to find those memorable sounds!

Hi Gattobus, I bought a new JDXA today, just downloaded your sounds, thank you for being so generous with them. They sound great.

Phenomenal, super, wau......Thank you. Best cover

Roland is going to loooooooove this vid. Super playing.

Daaaaam this is badass!!! kudos

insanely good as always i would like to see one or two of them expanded to the full song.

The best Roland JD-XA demo I've ever seen. Roland should have paid You for this outstanding job ;)
