It is an 8-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer that was manufactured by Roland between 1984 and 1987. It is the only one of the MKS series of synthesizers to have analogue voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) instead of analogue digitally-controlled oscillators (DCOs). The voice architecture is almost identical to the Jupiter-6 synthesizer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe voice architecture of the MKS-80 is fully analog with 8 polyphonic voices with 2 voltage controlled oscillators (VCO) per voice, using the Curtis CEM3340 VCO integrated circuit. The unit also includes one voltage controlled filter (VCF) and one voltage controlled amplifier (VCA) per voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"mwFA\"\u003eThe MKS-80 has a 64 patch internal memory (8 banks of 8 patches each) along with an optional memory cartridge called the M-64C with room for another 128 (2 banks of 64 each). A full MIDI implementation is built into the MKS-80, with MIDI IN, OUT and THRU jacks positioned at the rear of the unit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe MPG-80 is the optional programmer designed specifically for the MKS-80, providing direct access to the majority of the MKS-80's features. The MPG-80 connects to the MKS-80 via the Controller port using a special cable. When used with an MPG-80, the MKS-80's MIDI IN port is not used in favor of the MIDI IN on the MPG-80.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michigan Synth Works","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45603206037590,"sku":null,"price":4000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0051\/3690\/8374\/files\/PXL_20260823_225010902.jpg?v=1787526045","url":"https:\/\/michigansynthworks.com\/products\/roland-mks-80-rev-4-with-mpg-80","provider":"Michigan Synth Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
