LIB1 Free Collection
744 ZEN-Core tones usable
with the ZEN-Core Editor-Librarian software
for Roland Fantom 6-7-8, Fantom-06/07/08, AX-Edge,
Jupiter-X/Xm
The sound bank brings together the
numerous tones programmed and made available for
free by some users of
Patchland and
Roland Fantom Platform User Group.
Many of these tones were
programmed with the Jupiter-8, Juno-106 and JX-8p
Model Expansions: using my algorithm in the Editor
Librarian, I converted them to the equivalent
ZEN-Core format and inserted them into the editor
library, ready to be played, modified and optimized
without the limitations of the original model.
Some observations:
- The tones are grouped by author: the first tone of
each group is an INIT Tone with the name of the
author who programmed them and made them available.
For convenience this applies to those who have made
2 or more sounds available; the other tones are
grouped in locations C17-C33.
- As is known, the Model Expansion of the JX-8P
(and its equivalent ZEN-Core Tone) has polyphony
equal to 19 voices and uses Partial 4 to
simulate the background noise of the original synth:
for such tones it is possible (and convenient) turn
it off (Partial 4=OFF) so as to have an increase
in polyphony from 19 to 28 voices.
The equivalent ZEN-Core tone of a Model JX-8P can be
recognized by the presence of the parameters
indicated by the arrows: Partial3=OFF; Partial 4 Attenuator=127
Level4=8; Partial LFO Phase Lock=ON
- The equivalent ZEN-Core tones
obtained from the Model Expansion of the Juno-106
have polyphony equal to 14 voices and are
characterized by the presence of all 4 partials
always lit even when the oscillator volume in the
model is equal to zero (in the equivalent model OSC
Attenuator=0): all those Model sounds in which there
are oscillators with volume at zero waste
unnecessarily polyphony voices.
It is possible to easily recognize the equivalent
ZEN-Core tone of a Model Juno-106 as the partials
1-2-3 and 4 always have oscillators with waveforms
set respectively to VA SQR, VA SAW, VA SQR and
Noise: the Partial LFO Phase Lock=ON and the VCF
Gain Correction=30.
Here is an example (Juno-106
STRINGS) where SUB and Noise are set to zero
To save polyphony, in all the ZEN-Core tones
obtained from the conversion of a Model Juno-106 it
is best to turn off the partials with Attenuator=0.
The polyphonies obtained are:

I take this opportunity to thank
all those who made their sounds available.

- 128 Factory Presets of Juno 106 - Bank D
(1-128)
- 64 Factory Presets of JX-8P - Bank E
(1-64)
- 64 Factory Presets of Jupiter-8 - Bank E
(65-128)
They are excellent replicas of the
original presets of these synths created with the
model expansions: the library contains their
equivalent ZEN-Core version. For the JX-8p and
Juno-106 sounds it is possible to proceed with the
optimization of the polyphony, as seen.
- 128 JP-8000 tones - Bank A (17-128)
