The Roland Juno-60 Synthesizer from the year 1982 is one of my Top5 synths ever. Here can you find the full Juno-60 playlist with single sound demos and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy.

The 106 chorus is the best chorus ever, I adore it’s sound, I just wish it wasn’t so noisy

Thanks a lot for this simple and efficient comparison 👍 At least, we, can listen clearly those instruments, and understand the slight differences between them. Congratulations

The Roland JX-3P Synthesizer from the year 1983 is a fantastic analog synth with the typical 80s sound. Here can you find the full JX-3P playlist with single sound demos and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy.

The Roland Juno-106 Synthesizer from the year 1984 is a great analog synth with the typical 80s Roland sound. Often in the shadow of the brother JU-60 but the sound is different. Here can you find the full Juno-106 playlist with single sound demos and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy.

Kiwi3p with chorus mod is pretty nice too. Have a 3p 6 60 and 106 and the 106 chorus is the best

That 106 chorus - my god it’s smooth! 😍

[vanninusa]

Pretty sure these all used the same MN3009 chip for chorus. JX8p did too

[brightstarlit]

I prefer the Jx3p! But they all sound good!

Hmm never knew the 106 had a slightly less developed chorus II than the 60. Can the I and II be doubled on the 106 like the 60? Sounds like the JX-3 chorus borrows circuitry from Chorus I of both 60 and 106 . Intriguing comparison! Thx

You need to extend the comparison with FEEDBACK Modules - 106 Chorus (Eurorack)

You missed the Alpha Juno...perhaps the best example of the Juno chorus. That said, chorus is simple and over romanticized with regard to 80's music. Pick up any analog chorus pedal with a 'dark' sound and you'll be fine...

Juno 60 is the best Chorus. Juno 106 is more detuned chorus.
