They don't make em like they used to.

@markix88 They won't reissue, because it would cost more to produce Juno with analog VCF then to produce Jupiter-80. Analog components are very expensive these days. You have a monophonic Moog for $3000+, can you imagine what a six voice analog synth would cost? I would still go on eBay and search for a real Juno from 1984.

**ERROR** Ujiie, I think there's an error in your review: DCO doesn't mean oscillators are digital...but that oscillators are digitally controlled:"These are an interesting hybrid design. Although digitally controlled are digitally stable, the oscillator produces a true analogue output, even for ramp waves".

I have a 106 and there is some serious magic in the simplicity of the of this machine. I consider selling it about once a month. Every time I decide to advertise it I give it a little playing time, three hours later I always change my mind.

Ok - but for a classic analogue synth there is the lack of a second oscillator. So if you want to make the sound fat you got to use the built in chorus unit. But thar chorus is way too noisy - like all Roland chorus units of that time. So if someone is going for this synth he should buy a better TC chorus.

I owned a Juno 106 back in the 80s. It was a fun synth, but with only a single DCO, it was somewhat limited in the richness you could deliver. Of course, it beat the pants off hte crop of digital synths that were emerging, but even today, I find the 106 to sound thinner than many of the other roland synths from the time. The chorus helps a bit, but tends to make the sound swim. The best thing about the synth was that it was really hands-on, but the sound is a bit lacking.

I love the Juno Series, more the classic until the Juno-D... simply JUNOMANIA!!!

I got the chills. I must hunt down a Juno-6, NAO!!!!
Roland Corp - for the love of God.....you have many classic products where the R&D has already been done....please reissue the Juno, Jupiter and TR's.
