Cherry Audio Mercury-4

The Cherry Audio Mercury-4 Synthesizer is an electronic music instrument that is a perfect digital recreation of the original Roland Jupiter-4 synthesizer released in 1978. This innovative instrument combines voice-assign polyphony and digital patch storage, allowing musicians to store and recall sounds at the touch of a button.

The Mercury-4 replicates the Jupiter-4’s distinctly powerful oscillator and filter tonality, whilst addressing the original instrument’s limitations. It offers up to 16-voice polyphony, infinite patch storage, easy patch editing, and more. It also replicates the famous Roland stereo chorus and introduces a new “Space Echo”-style tape echo with multiple reverb modes.

The instrument’s key features include:

• An authentically modelled oscillator with a sub-oscillator
• Powerful low-frequency resonance in the modelled filter characteristics
• Over 300 presets programmed by industry veterans
• Exact replication of the unique arpeggio section with tempo sync
• Wide-range LFO modulation with “inverted” mod characteristics
• Drift control for added analogue realism
• Precisely replicated stereo ensemble effect
• Warm, organic tape echo with multiple reverb modes
• Tempo-syncable LFO
• Detunable unison mode and single-key chord memory mode
• Highly optimized coding for high performance with ultra-low CPU load
• Advanced one-click UI magnification
• Comprehensive MPE support
• Full MIDI control and DAW automation for all controls
• Mercury-4 is available in AU, VST, VST3, AAX, and standalone formats
