When Analog Synths were Unloved, Irrelevant and Worthless

video upload by Woody Piano Shack

"There was a time, not that long ago, when analog synths were unpopular, unloved, irrelevant and almost worthless. Let's discuss the arrival and dominance of digital synths in the 80s and 90s, and how they turned analog synths into obsoiete dinosaurs.

Of course, things are different now and analog is desirable and back in fashion, wo it's interesting to reflect on what has changed and why."

ROLAND JUNO 6 - LFO TRIG BUTTON REPAIR AND BASIC CALIBRATION

video upload by Mindburner

"This Roland Juno 6 was mostly working well but had a small but annoying problem in that the LFO Trig button was not working.

Power supply capacitors were changed and the machine calibrated.
Some other small issues corrected.
Apologies for the tedious trimming shenanigans.
