- In this video I demonstrate the new VECOVEN Mod, you might know from the JX-10 or MKS-70, recently also established for the JX-8P. I show the main functions, especially the Chord mode and the arpeggiator.
Here partly the description of the Website from Fred Vecoven:
o Chord mode
o Arpeggiator with tons of modes
o each parameter is now OFF/RECV/SEND/ON, allowing fine control of what gets sent and what is filtered.
o sysex support : allow edition of tone parameters individually, including the "patch" parameters.
o midi cc support : allow edition of all tone parameters with midi cc.
o fast bulk dump/load : 1-2 seconds to dump everything. Can dump to/from cartridge and internal memory.
o edition of parameters (patch and tones) sends sysex, so all editions can be sequenced. PG800 is also supported here, so editions made from the PG800 can also be sequenced.
o copy from/to cartridge to create a full backup of the internal memory (all settings are now copied to the cartridge or restored from it)
o flash module provides 32 internal banks (total of 32 x 32 tones = 1024 tones!). Preloaded with hundreds of tones.
o M16C and M64C support : provide one or four extra banks of tones.
o Import mode to load existing internet "dump" files directly into a bank
o any tone parameter can be assigned to the edit slider during play mode [coming soon !]
o control whether updates from sysex, pg800 or controllers are displayed temporarily on-screen
o allows to disable new features for full compatibility with old software (for example, sysex changes made to tone A can be redirected to the currently selected tone, etc...)
This mod is really exciting and the support is great as well. I got the parts within 3 days after ordering.
For the mod soldering is not necessary. There are just two EPROMS to change, which are on sockets.
There is also a PWM mod, but here you have to desolder 5 IC with a lot of pins, but cables are not necessary.Further informations you get from the website and the manual about the PWM-Mod.
I hope, you enjoy the video and it shall help you to decide about the mod.

Take care.
Just love that synth and the Vecoven mods made this thing ready for 2022!
I don’t even include arpeggiators in my own music, and I totally dug this demo! I also enjoyed watching you tweak the sound from the front panel without an outboard programmer.
Random arp on a JX8P! 😎
This is amazing! I'm hoping more mods would come out for this synth. Does this one that you're playing have the PWM mod? I so want it... but I may have to go to some synth specialists to do it, seems like it'll take lots of time, and precision do this. I wouldn't know if i'd be patient 😬
doesnt it also offer pwm? would interest me as well
Hello, nice mod for nice synth. arp be can sync external ? Sync lfo would be great too :) cheers
