Meet the Mercury-4
Mercury-4 is a detailed emulation of one of the best-sounding and quirkiest polyphonic synthesizers of the late 1970's, the Roland Jupiter-4. It’s the rarest and most sonically unique of the fabled Jupiter series, and we’ve gone to great lengths to recreate the subtle (and not-so-subtle) nuance and character of this beloved classic. Every aspect of Mercury-4 has been expertly modeled upon a vintage Jupiter-4 originally owned by Greg Hawkes of the legendary 80’s new wave band The Cars.
The Jupiter-4 had its share of disadvantages, including limited patch storage, just four voices of polyphony, and boat-anchor weight. Cherry Audio’s Mercury-4 improves upon the original’s design by offering 16-voice polyphony, infinite patch storage, velocity sensitivity, MPE support, and much more. We’ve even paired it with a fantastic model of the classic tape delay box!
Mercury-4 features:
- Authentically modeled oscillator with sub oscillator
- All filter characteristics modeled, including powerful low-frequency resonance
- Up to 16-voice polyphony
- Over 400 presets, programmed by industry veterans
- Exactingly replicated unique arpeggio section w/tempo sync
- Carefully modeled wide-range LFO modulation with "inverted" mod characteristics
- Drift control for increased analog realism
- Precisely replicated stereo ensemble effect
- Warm and organic tape echo with multiple reverb modes
- Tempo-syncable LFO
- Detunable unison mode
- Single-key chord memory mode
- Highly optimized coding for high performance with ultra-low CPU load
- User-adjustable oversampling control
- Advanced one-click UI magnification
- Comprehensive MPE support
- Full MIDI control and DAW automation for all controls
A free 30-day demo of Mercury-4 is available. This demo will play white noise periodically, but is otherwise unlimited.

Incredible Instrument
Well, yes, I have all of CA's synths and this one is an also go to for some of those 80's sounds. The inclusion of the tape echo is genius. This this sounds just like hardware, it has the warmth and bite of a real synth, just like the Memorymode. Just buy it, you won't regret it at all.

Mercury 4
Best sounding synthesizer VST I have ever used. I had 3 Jupiter 4's, this is so close!
