Cherry Audio Mercury-4 User Guide - 1
Cherry Audio's Mercury-4 is a polyphonic synthesizer based upon the classic
Roland Jupiter-4 synthesizer. Originally released in 1978, it was the second
synth made that combined voice-assign polyphony with digital patch storage
(following the Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, released in 1978). When we say,
"digital patch storage," we mean the ability to store and recall patch settings
saved to a digital memory and recall them at the touch of a button. By
"voice-assign polyphony," we're referring to instruments with a finite number
of independent synthesizer voices (four, in this case) that digitally scan the
keyboard and assign played notes to each synth voice. These days, voice-
assign polyphony and digital patch storage are taken for granted, but this
was a HUGE deal in the late 70s when options for polyphonic synthesis were
mostly limited to paraphonic instruments (i.e. limited synthesis parameters
and note envelopes weren't independent) derived from organ technology,
and patch recall was generally limited to how fast you could twirl knobs and
flick switches!

Arguably, the Jupiter-4 is something of an underdog. It was certainly
overshadowed by the
first
voice-assign polysynth with digital patch storage -
the Prophet-5. Not only was the Prophet first, but on paper, its specs are
more impressive (five-voice polyphony vs. Jupiter's four, two oscillators per-
voice vs. Jupiter's one, 40 or 128 user patch storage locations depending on
revision vs. Jupiter-4's eight user patch locations, etc.). Appearing soon
thereafter, Roland's later Juno-6/60/106 series also outshined the Jupiter-4
with greater polyphony, more user patch storage locations, superior tuning
stability, and more.
But as is often the case, specs don't tell the whole story. Put plainly, the
Jupiter-4 sounds fantastic, with a raw, raunchy tone not found in any of the
other beloved Juno and Jupiter synths. Its analog oscillators (not DCO's) were
implemented in a somewhat odd fashion, giving them a uniquely aggressive
tone quality, the built-in sub oscillator adds girth, its oddly fast and deep LFO
modulation capabilities allow it to create uniquely whacked out modular
synth-like tones, and Roland's famous stereo chorus "ensemble" circuit is
beautifully implemented, adding a boatload of width and dimension to the
Jupiter-4's single-oscillator tones.
The original instrument had its share of caveats, including a meager eight
user patch locations, no edit mode for stored patches (the front panel
controls went dead when a factory or user preset was selected!), only four
voices of polyphony, it weighed a ton (a portly 42 lb!), and its lack of
autotune meant a cold breeze could send the whole thing careening out of
tune. Cherry Audio's Mercury-4 addresses every one of these issues with up
to 16-voice polyphony, infinite patch storage, easy patch editing, and much
more. In addition to recreating the Jupiter-4's idiosyncratic oscillator and filter
tonality, Mercury-4 precisely replicates the stereo ensemble effect and adds
a spot-on "Space Echo"-style tape echo with multiple reverb modes.
Pre-Purchase Demo Mode
If you haven't purchased the full version of Mercury-4, it will run in demo
mode. All functions will work, but inharmonic tones will occasionally sound
(the LED next to
Demo
in the top toolbar will illuminate when the ugly tones
are sounding). We've also added a handy button to make purchasing easy, so

you've got no excuse! As you might expect, all this demo nonsense
disappears once Mercury-4 is purchased.
