Roland JUPITER-80 specs

Roland's 76-key flagship synth announced 6 April 2011, with shipments from August 2011: SuperNATURAL behavior modeling (synth, acoustic and drum tone families), 256-note polyphony, channel aftertouch and 17.7 kg of stage hardware, with no speakers and no published tone count. The JUPITER-X line's arrival in September 2019 closed the book on it; now it is found mainly second-hand.
