"Roland juno ds-61"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Roland has a real winner here. I had the juno di which was good but the juno ds is a better improvement. The controls are on the left side which I like better. the pads button are nice. they included more new organs which sound excellent. and there is a few more added sounds which also sound excellent.also you can get the EXP1+2 and so on from the roland website to download for more great sounds. it's also lighter than the di. the 8 track sequencer is easy to use. and you also have a vocoder
which allows you to select different waveforms to vocode. well worth $700
