ROLAND JUNO 106 : VOICE CHIP ISSUES & How to Test

Published on Mar 11, 2016 EXPLORING AUDIO

"The Roland Juno 106 was released in February of 1984 and has become a legendary instrument in the history of synthesizers. However, it’s also well known for being somewhat tempermental.

The most common problem with Juno 106’s is the voice chips suddenly dying. The chips were just not meant to be used for 30+ years. Apparently, the coating that Roland used on these chips will begin to conduct electricity and this causes issues the voice chips. Removing this coating will fix this issue and extend the lifespan of the chips! This doesn’t work in all cases and I strongly recommend doing outside research before opening your Juno up but it does seem to fix the issue the majority of the time.

I strongly recommend watching Syntegrator’s Juno 106 videos [posted here]. Most of this video is heavily based on the information he presents there and before you ever open a Juno, check out his stuff first!"

Modular Analog Synthesizer Project 08: More Sense

Published on Mar 10, 2016 rakershine

"The RakerShine production of "Love Makes More Sense if You Don't Get it". A very high paced music creation overview video of this Rockin' "Love" song featuring analog synthesizer, MIDI sequenced EZdrums and a whole lot of grueling mixing on Logic Pro. Prototyped on Arturia System V, some Blender based animation effects, a bit of video editing in FCPX and a pinch of skeeeelz. All final synth sounds were created on Steve Averill's 64 module, 2 keyboard DotCom power rig. Number one muse-ologist, Louise Hernstedt provided excellent camera-scaping and a taste of angry woman vocals. (ya ya ya ya)."

KORG VC 10 analog vocoder/ synth

"Has some interesting features, notably you can add pitch modulations according to the attack of the input, a simple feature that gets really funky results. Vocoding with the built in tone generator is the standard sound of the VC 10 but you can open it up alot by running an external carrier input.. anything with rich harmonics like a prophet or juno saw waves, a string machine ect, then overdrive the input just a bit and you can get a really rich classic vocoding sound."

EMU Emulator 2, RARE CDROM DRIVE, RAREST FOOT PEDAL, 100s of Sounds

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This Emulator ii has featured on many recordings and has featured on an international artists record that has sold over 1 million copies...

This Emulator was completely overhauled in 2011. There was nothing wrong with it it was just fully cleaned and serviced by SynthProf. http://www.synthprof.com/

It was also given a service this year by FlinnTone http://www.flinn-tone.com/flinn-tone/Index.html

What is included;

1. Emu Emulator ii in fantastic condition. Fully working with HXC floppy drive SD Card emulator and original floppy drive

2. SD Card with hundreds of sounds. These include the rare Universe of Sound CDs 1 and 2 (I have the original CDs somewhere just have to find them). Sounds from the great JMP Emulator sound designer (I paid for these!) Pretty much every Emulator Sound that can be had

3. Foot Pedal. I have never seen one apart from mine and it came with the machine. In great working condition. Rare as can be

4. CDROM drive again as rare as can be. Unit powers on, reads please insert disc on display and tray comes out. A cable was made up for me by a tech. As I recall the CD just was not read. My tech tells me that it is an easy fix as there are only 2 things that can go wrong with a CDROM. Again absolutely rare as can be

Heres a link to one sold previous

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Emu-Emulator-II-Emax-OMI-CDS3-CD-ROM-wOMI-Universe-of-Sounds-CDs-Sampler-Vintag-/262056823559

5. Tray of 5 1/4 inch floppies. I believe most of these have been transferred onto the SD Card. 31 disks in total with titles such as ARP Synth Basses,E2 Fairlight etc

6. Flight case. I have never used this as my Emulator site in the studio and has never been moved. It will need a reform refit to fit the synth.

7. Instruction manual. A few pages have come off the binder but pretty much all there."
