try approximating one of your previously existing decent leads on the JP8;
perhaps there are certain techniques you are used to from your own synths

Also, so you can hear what kinds of lead the 8 is capable of, try digging up

a Devo tune called "Theme from 'Doctor Detroit'". This was a dumb 80s flick

w/Dan Ackroyd and Howard Hesseman. There's a lead line that sounds a lot
like a lap steel guitar which is reputedly Mark Mothersbough twiddling that
left hand controller section. Never mind these italics, I don't know how
that happened. Also, most of Devo's NEW TRADITIONALISTS was done on JP8 and

Moog Source, so there's some other (admittedly dated) points of reference.
