It was the worst synth I could've bought as my first - took years to work out what ws going on as the interface is that bad.. 

This video will have an extremely niche audience but worth putting together I think. Apart from the filter being a bit rubbish its a great sounding synth.

I've never bought a hardware controller as they're all so expensive and don't add functionality. This one does with macro assigns and MIDI cc to sysex translation - so you can use your DAWS MIDI fx to modulate stuff... like adding extra LFOs to the synths.  v cool

As it's got patch memories as well I never have to touch the synth... so its going to hide in a corner while the new Korg Polysix takes its place on the rack.

Glad you did this video! I just got one of these controllers as well and am looking forward to it! I have a rack version of Juno so it’s golden!

The memories of this synth. My favorite of the synths we had at the music store I worked at as a teenager.. but was out of my price range! Just bought one last year as a restoration project.

Great.. good timing. I think it's a great bit of kit. The company are extremely responsive as well. I noticed a couple of bugs they fixed ASAP.

Mine's forever being opened up - the keys have always been dodgy since I first purchased it. Every time I open it there's another screw I can't put back in. Its now held together by about 4!
