A filter with real character
This filter is really terrific, as characterful as I hoped for. Capable for producing modern sound design tones as well as old school vibes. Glad i managed to get this into the kit bag. Keep your eyes peeled for it.

The AM8060 JP6 VCF EuroRack module was launched in late 2010 and immediately gained positive feedback from customers. The SE model was introduced in 2014 but chip shortages results in only a short production run.

OVERVIEW This module is a replica of the Roland Jupiter 6 (1983) voltage controlled filter which comprises two 2-pole State Variable filters in series.
DESCRIPTION Forty years later the AM8060 contains the same two SVF's, with each of the 2-pole filters switchable into either Low Pass or High Pass mode providing three VCF modes all with variable resonance.
- 24dB Low Pass Filter
- 24dB High Pass Filter
- 12dB Band Pass Filter (two versions)
In 2023 the AM8060SE has been re-issued; with Rpar AS3109 chips, a revised resonance control circuit, original Roland JP-6 momentary buttons with LED's and black aluminium control knobs. Resonance and frequency cutoff can be controlled by external CV signals, typically from 0 to +10V.
CONNECTIONS There are six 3.5mm jack sockets on the right of the front panel;
- 2x audio inputs
- 2x frequency control voltages
- 1x resonance control voltage
- 1x audio signal output
The module comes with a set of M3 mounting screws and washers, and a standard Doepfer power cable.
B-STOCK We have one AM8060SE panel which has a slight burring mark on the lower right hand euro rail hole. It is mainly covered by the mountig screws but it is for sale at £20 off. The last image is of this panel

These modules are good
I have no Jupiter 6 so I can't validate the accuracy of sound but it sounds good to me and adds a useful flavour to the setup. Plus, the modules are really well made and backed up by excellent support. Happy punter here.
Top quality and sound
The sound of this filter takes me back to the 80s. Very well built and one of my favourite!
