A recreation of the Juno 106 and 60 models in one tiny digital box. This synth packs a great sounding punch for a battery operated, mini-speaker-toting module. The Juno chorus is a classic sought-after sound in itself, which really adds thickness, width and life to the single oscillator sound of the Juno.
The JU-06A has a mini-jack input for an external click, mini-jack stereo headphone and line outputs, MIDI in and out ports, and USB connectivity that allows you to use it as an audio interface with your computer. It also runs off batteries with an internal speaker for music-making on the go.
DIVE INTO THE LIGHT
In this track, I used a smooth brassy patch with added chorus for the main synth and a classic bass sound, making good use of the sub oscillator to fatten it up.
The track has been released as a single, available on all streaming and download platforms.
SYNTH JAMS AND REMIXES
One of a series of synthjams from January 2022, using a Yamaha PSS-580 as a MIDI controller to play the JU-06A and with drums from the Korg Electribe II Sampler.
For this remix of Dora Lachaise's own track, I used the JU-06A for the main synth, synth sample libraries from Spitfire and Samples From Mars, the Novation Bass Station, and a few other bits and pieces.
