Roland Juno-60



Well, this is a classic synth. It's among the first in Roland's Juno family. And, of course, it's analog. It sounds just like the Juno-6, better than Juno-106. Juno-60 is the best synth among all Junos, Alpha-Junos and JXs. If the sound is your flavour, then go for the 60. It's amazing what you can get out of that synth - it is used by almost everyone. Chorus is perfect. You can store 56 patches, you can also back them up to the tape, or hard-disk. People are buying 106s only because they've got MIDI built in, but that shouldn't be a problem. If you're after sound, then get Juno-60 and one DCB to MIDI converter. That's it.

You can find more info and tips at Vintage Synth Explorer.
