Roland Juno 60 Van Halen I'll Wait by JimmyPound

"Here is an excellent example of the Juno 60 Brass edited for "I'll Wait". I did add an external delay to spice it up a bit. I'll Wait is more difficult to play correctly on the Juno 60 due to only 6 note polyphony. I am new to video recording and hope to get past the learning curve in the coming months. I hope to learn how to perform successful audio editing in the future in order to make better quality videos! Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for viewing!"

"In 1984 I wrote a program for my Commodore 64 to algorithmically compose "gregorian chants". Every time I ran it it came up with something different. This is a recording of one of those times"

"6-voice polyphonic analog subtractive synthesizer from '83.

Almost everything on this unit is analog (oscillators, filters, envelopes, etc). The sound can be a bit thin but using the unison button will fatten the sound considerably!

This unit doesn't have any on-board effects."
