"Original 1980’s Roland Jupiter 6 analog synthesizer. An insanely powerful board with all you’d want including midi. This synth is in original, unmodified condition and is in very good physical condition overall. One small bit of sticker residue that could easily be cleaned off but otherwise an excellent example. A perfect instrument to fill out your studio arsenal."

ASM Hydra Deluxe - Improvisation in Maqam Hijaz

video upload by experimentalsynth

"Just a bit of noodling in my current favorite Hydrasynth Deluxe multi preset. I tweaked the left hand pad a bit cut some of the high end so the right hand lead would stand out more. The result seemed a perfect fit for explorations in the Arabic Hijaz scale. Learn more at experimental synth.com"

I initially recorded this cover back in 2020 but I hadn't put it together until now 😄
Only 3 samples were used from the original, they are: the guitar, the kick & snare (layered with my own kick & snare). Main sequence is the SH-01A, piano & strings are Roland Juno Gi."

Roland Announces JUNO-60 Chorus Software Effect

Press release follows:

Genuine Recreation of the Chorus Effect from the Vintage JUNO-60 Analog Synth Now Available as a Standalone DAW Plug-In

Los Angeles, CA, March 8, 2022 — Roland announces the JUNO-60 Chorus, a new software effect available through Roland Cloud. Released in 1982, the JUNO-60 is a shining star in the vintage synth universe, heard on generations of famous tracks and still loved by musicians and producers today. A huge slice of its timeless magic comes from an analog stereo chorus effect that imparts so much richness and character that players rarely turn it off. With the JUNO-60 Chorus, Roland delivers the effect's elegant simplicity and authentic sound in a standalone plug-in for the first time.

The lush stereo chorus in the JUNO-60 was specially tuned to enhance the synth’s single DCO, fat sub-oscillator, and characterful VCF. Players quickly found it to be an essential component of the JUNO’s unique voice, making it hit well above its weight and compete with more sophisticated—and much more expensive—multi-oscillator polysynths of the day. With the JUNO-60 Chorus plug-in, music producers can now infuse any DAW track with the evocative color of this legendary effect.

Like the original hardware, the software version has two push-button chorus modes, plus a third “secret” mode accessed by pressing both buttons at once. Each mode is modeled in meticulous detail, complete with variable analog noise for the full retro experience. The vintage JUNO-60 vibe is carried on further with graphics that reflect the synth’s iconic panel and distinctive wood side panels.

Adding the JUNO-60 Chorus to any keyboard sound makes it come alive. It also works great with other sound sources, including guitar, bass, vocals, and more. The plug-in is available in VST3, AU, and AAX versions for Mac and Windows DAWs, and native Apple silicon support provides full compatibility with the latest Mac computers.

The Roland JUNO-60 Chorus is available with the Ultimate membership level of Roland Cloud or a $99 Lifetime Key purchase. All paid membership plans start with a 30-day free trial of Ultimate, to experience everything Roland Cloud has to offer, including the JUNO-60 CHORUS and more.
