- I have been fortunate enough to own a Juno 106 and 60 over the past year. To my ears they are completely different beast. The 106 rules on bass and strings, the 60 for pads chords stabs and arpeggios. To me the 106 sounds like what we all wish a soft-synth could sound like and the 60 sounds like it is a real, old, synth.
- Roland; The Roland Juno-106 was one of the most popular analog poly synths of the 1980s, and has been used on countless hit songs. It has six voice polyphony, with one DCO oscillator per voice, and a 4-Pole resonant analog VCF filter. The Juno-106 also incorporated an onboard analog chorus effect to fatten up the sound.

As when I used an editor on pc to midi on the juno 106, it seemed to work perfectly, i.e. The filter worked normally, the pwm worked, the lfo amount to filter worked. But when I moved the sliders on the synth in real life, it just did not work properly.

1. Although Roland has tested numerous configurations and has determined that on average, a computer system similar to that described above will permit normal operation of the PLUG-OUT SOFTWARE SYNTHESIZER, Roland cannot guarantee that a given computer can be used satisfactorily with the PLUG-OUT SOFTWARE SYNTHESIZER based solely on the fact that it meets the above requirements. This is because there are too many other variables that may influence the processing environment, including differences in motherboard design and the particular combination of other devices involved.
2. This Software Synthesizer cannot be plugged-out to SYSTEM-1 or SYSTEM-1m hardware.
If the JUNO-106 is already plugged-out to one of the plug-out destinations of SYSTEM-8 hardware, you cannot plug-out a new instance.
A SYSTEM-8 Hardware synthesizer is not required to use this instrument in your DAW, but is required for this software synthesizer to plug-out to a hardware synthesizer.
