Introducing the Roland JUNO-X Synthesizer | Three JUNOs in One (JUNO-60, JUNO-106, and JUNO-X)

Watch David Ahlund introduce the JUNO-X synthesizer’s wide range of sounds and features. This three-in-one synth contains the vintage JUNO-60 and JUNO-106 engines from the legendary JUNO lineup plus the modern JUNO-X sound engine. Combine and layer up to four parts and bring the warm vintage sounds of the ‘80s into the future.

Enhance your performance with three additional Roland classics—XV-5080, RD-Piano, and Vocoder. From the built-in chorus to the forward-thinking I-Arpeggio, JUNO-X combines classic effects with modern musical muscle for an unmatched JUNO experience.

Not only is JUNO-X packed with unrivaled sounds, but it also features a familiar panel with responsive controls and a full-sized keyboard for immersive performance. Plus, you can tweak tones, build scenes, and swap parameters easily using the free JUNO-X Editor for Windows and Mac OS available on Roland Cloud.

What the Analog-era Roland fans like myself REALLY want is a true analog Juno 60/106 reissue and update much like Dave Smith has done with the newest iteration of the Prophet 5.

Great vocoder performance! Not often you see playing this good in demos!

[ThrdFloor]

The pads sounds are absolutely beautiful and heavenly.
, ,,not forgetting about the performance at the end with the vocoder in which was sublime.
What an amazing instrument limited by only one’s imagination.
Love it!!!

[williamtell]

My goodness what a beautiful looking and gorgeous sounding synth. Roland rocks!

[Kraeezeu]

Congrats to David for this excellent demonstration of his musicality

I think it’s a great addition and a good step forward for Roland to staying relevant but still being able to provide classic tone and sounds that are analog sounding. I am interested and will more than likely get this . Those that are complaining about not being true to analog, check out the Deepmind 12 by Behringer, it is the closest analog Juno 60/106 replica I own down to the faders it is a instant classic.

I love David 's gear demos. He is such an asset to Roland. Nice work!

[ewan]

You are a credit to Roland. Beast of a synth, I'm ordering one shortly. Awesome playing skills, you made the juno x rock.

[DaveDaves]

Right on, Roland! I can only imagine this model / line being very successful. It's like you have a Juno for real, but with all the modern digital amenities. THIS is finally what Roland needed to be doing re their past classics, this is finally that. Looks to be well designed, the UI ... I am a JDxA

[RD-qngt]

Oh...btw Dave you are special. You have a rare talent. That was not a gear demo, that was a performance with that vocoder! Best thing I have heard in a demo by far!

[deks]

what an amazing synth!!! that sound is unreal!! 80's revived!!

[PulseAM]

Can't decide if I like this or the Jupiter X better, they're both great. And Roland give him a raise his demos are great!

[stevenaustin]

Its clear to me that in from about 2020 onward there's been a HUGE trend of the 80s coming back, especially with synths etc, and I'm loving it! ;)

[davedery]

Wow thank you for this tutorial.

I love my Juno x even more

[DJpiya]

Wow, first time in history I know, Roland has sent someone who knows how to play their keyboards well. I was tired of watching Scott dull demos. David u did awesome Job. Hatsoff 👍👍

[jimmythebold]

i love the drum and bass jam at the end! EXCELLENT DEMO

[ajotech]

What an amazing INSANE demo and that vocoder sounds incredible!!

[YoungFox]

that vocoder part sold it for me. that was amazing

[noisearkitekt]

Awesome Awesome Awesome!! I am a die-hard fan of vintage synths and as nostalgic as I would like to be I think it is great to see Roland paving a new and incredibly exciting and innovative future for instruments and it’s performers. I personally think that the Jupiter X is an incredibly powerful synth and this new Juno X is really lifting expectations for any future Roland synths.

[sonarfreq]

That vocoder section performance is something else... beautiful stuff David!
