Roland has announced the v2 version of the Juno-60 virtual instrument as an extension of the Legendary Series v2.
The beloved Juno-60 is getting the full v2 treatment, including a refined, high-resolution interface, universal patch browsing, Circuit Mod, and all-new sounds.
Refined interfaces: The Juno-60 v2 lets you experience the thrill of this iconic instrument in your own studio, thanks to the newly developed high-resolution interface for modern DAWs and big-screen production environments. With a refined layout and new universal header, users will experience a more seamless interface, all while keeping true to the original design and workflow.
Browse and tweak: The Juno-60 v2 features a shiny new universal browser that lets you search and rate sounds across every installed patch bank, including an all-new bank of fresh tones. With the ability to adjust vital parameters directly from the browser’s integrated Tweak Panel, there’s no need to change views to customize sounds to your liking.
Mod shop: Vintage Roland synths like the Juno-60 had internal trim controls that allowed technicians to tweak various analog components when they drifted out of spec. But sometimes, “out of spec” created a sound that was unique, interesting, or extraordinary. Realized through Roland’s latest ACB advancements, the new Circuit Mod function lets you sweep through multiple trims using a single macro control. Along with the Condition parameter, which simulates the effects of aging, you can dial in everything from a factory-primed instrument to a road-worn synth that hasn’t seen a tech bench in decades.
Roland Juno-60 v2 can be downloaded through Roland Cloud. More information about the Juno-60 synthesizer can be found on the Roland homepage.
