Revisit the '80s Synth Orbit
The sounds of the 1980s were created with the help of a wide collection of powerful synthesizers, which were deployed in seemingly every genre. TAL Software's TAL-J-8 focuses its attention on modeling one of the most quintessential synthesizers of this bunch, and its tandem calibration with an authentic hardware synth makes for an entirely true-to-time performance. With faithful controls and pin-point emulated sound, you’ll be granted your own vintage '80s polysynth to experiment and perform with, all at astonishing convenience. Take yourself back in time with over 300 factory presets, mimicking popular leads, pads, plucks, and basses of the past. You’ll even have the opportunity to cook up your own creations from scratch, granting complete control over a not-so-long-forgotten synthesizer relic.
