Main Features Incorporates the JV-1080 Sound Module The JV-1010 is a 16-part multitimbral internal sound generator that can generate up to 64 voices simultaneously, and is equipped with a multi-effects processor (EFX) offering a total of 40 different effects. The Preset patches are compatible not only with the JV-1080 and the XP-30/50/60/80, but with the JV-2080 as well.
This adjusts the volume level for the OUTPUT jack and the PHONES jack. You can also check out a sound using the JV-1010 alone by pressing the VOLUME knob (Phrase Preview, p. 25). When in a mode other than the Patch mode, pressing the VALUE knob while holding down the VOLUME knob switches you to the Edit mode.
* Turn off the power before changing this switch’s setting. 5. COMPUTER Connector This is for connecting a computer to the JV-1010 using a computer cable (sold separately) (p. 38). Set the COMPUTER switch to Mac or PC-2. 6. OUTPUT Jacks (L (MONO), R) These are for stereo (L/R) output of audio signals to an amp or a mixer.
Attaching the Rubber Feet If you will not be using the separately available RAD-50 rack-mount adaptor, attach the rubber feet that were supplied with the JV-1010, as shown in the figure. Use the small holes on the bottom as a guide for positioning the rubber feet when attaching them.
Installing a Wave Expansion Board One Wave Expansion Board (SR-JV80 series; sold separately) can be installed in the JV-1010. Waveform data, patches and rhythm sets are stored on the Wave Expansion Board, so you can increase the number of available sounds by installing the board in the JV-1010.
Page 16
Follow the steps below to install the Wave Expansion Board. Before installing the Wave Expansion Board, switch off the power to the JV-1010 and any connected equipment. Detach the cover on the upper portion of the JV-1010. Loosen the four screws on the upper portion of the cover. fig.1-03a.e Screwdriver Position the board holders so they are oriented.
Page 17
This completes the installation of the Wave Expansion Board. Next, make sure the board is installed correctly. Switch on the power to the JV-1010 (p. 20). Press the VALUE knob to choose the Patch mode ( fig.1-04 Pressing the VALUE knob makes the mode change sequentially. Press the knob several times, until the PATCH indicator lights up.
Getting Ready to Play Making the Connections The JV-1010 does not have a built-in amp or speakers. In order to produce sound, you need to hook up audio equipment such as a monitor speaker or a stereo set, or use headphones.
Page 19
OUT, THRU) Use a MIDI cable (sold separately) to connect the MIDI OUT connector on the MIDI keyboard or sequencer to the MIDI IN connector on the JV-1010. Using headphones: the PHONES jack Plug the headphones (sold separately) into the PHONES jack on the front panel.
Press the POWER switch on the JV-1010 to switch on the power. After roland Jv-1010 is displayed, the unit starts up in the same state it was in when the power was last turned off.
Reset to Default Factory Settings (Factory Reset) When using the JV-1010 for the first time, start by returning the settings to their factory defaults so that the JV-1010 operates as described in the procedures in the owner’s manual. This returns all settings stored in memory in the JV-1010 to the values they had when the unit was shipped from the factory.
Scott Wilkie is a contemporary jazz recording artist, based in southern California. He tours frequently with his own band, and also appears as an artist for Roland in the U.S., Japan, Europe and South America. His debut solo album, Boundless, was released worldwide in 1999 on Narada/Virgin Records.
Choosing and Playing Patches The JV-1010 comes with a large number of onboard sounds. On the JV-1010, the sounds used for an ordinary performance are called Patches. With the JV-1010, you can use seven groups—User, Preset A through E, and Session—and when a Wave Expansion Board (separately available) is...
Auditioning Patches (Phrase Preview) On the JV-1010, you can check out patches easily, since phrases are provided for each type of patch. Thanks to this, you don’t need to have a MIDI keyboard or sequencer connected. In this section, we’ll listen to patch sounds in the Patch mode.
Choosing and Playing Patches Playing Notes from a MIDI Keyboard The JV-1010 receives and plays MIDI data from other instruments. When doing this, the transmitting instrument (the MIDI keyboard or the like) and the JV-1010 must be set to the same MIDI channel.
Choosing Patches When you’ve selected the Patch mode or the Performance mode, after changing the Category and Bank with the CATEGORY/BANK knob, you can choose a patch by turning the VALUE knob. You can use either of two methods to choose a patch: choosing by bank (display with white text) or choosing by category (display in blue text).
Choosing and Playing Patches Choosing Patches by Category Here, let’s choose No. 008 Bright Piano from PIANO (the Piano category). fig.1-17 Press the VALUE knob to choose the Patch mode (PATCH). Pressing the VALUE knob makes the mode change sequentially. Press the knob several times, until the PATCH indicator lights up.
The JV-1010 has Rhythm Sets that contain a variety of percussion instruments and special effects sounds. With the JV-1010, you can use seven groups—User, Preset A through E, and Session—and when a Wave Expansion Board (separately available) is installed, you can also use the Wave Expansion Board’s onboard rhythm sets.
Page 30
Choosing and Playing Patches To play rhythm sets using a MIDI keyboard, set the MIDI transmit channel for the MIDI keyboard to 10. Here’s how you can play percussion instruments using rhythm sets: fig.1-19 Set the transmit channel for the MIDI keyboard (the transmitting instrument) to 10.
Using the JV-1010 as the GM Sound Module The JV-1010 features a GM mode—a convenient way to play back or create GM score data (music files for GM sound module). You’re able to play back commercial GM score data releases and even modify various parameter settings for enhanced musical expression.
You can change patches, performances, and rhythm sets by transmitting Bank Select messages (Controller numbers 0 and 32) and Program Change messages to the JV-1010 from an external MIDI device. That is, selecting sounds on an external MIDI keyboard transmits messages corresponding to the specified sounds to the JV-1010, thus changing the patch or the like on the JV-1010.

Transmit a Program Change 10 from the external MIDI device to the JV-1010. The display on the JV-1010 shows 010 to indicate the switch to the PRESET- B patch No. 010 Hip Bass. The correspondences between MIDI messages transmitted from external MIDI devices and Patch Numbers are as shown below.
When changing a performance, set the transmit channel of the external MIDI device and the Performance Control Channel (Perform Ctrl CH) of the JV-1010 to the same channel, then transmit the Bank Select and Program Change messages. Now let’s set the transmit channel on the external MIDI device and the Performance Control Channel (Perform Ctrl CH) on the JV-1010 to the same channel and try changing the performance.

Connecting to a Computer Two Ways to Connect There are two methods that can be used to connect the JV-1010 to a computer, connecting to the COMPUTER connector and connecting with MIDI connectors. When connecting to the COMPUTER connector, a computer cable is used to connect the JV-1010 to your computer’s serial port (RS-232C).
