Roland Juno-G is a music workstation/synth introduced in 2006 by Roland Corporation. It is based on the Fantom-X series, having a vintage design that resembles the first Juno synthesizers, such as the Juno-106. The Juno-G's main competitor in the approximate price range, with similar features, when first released, was the Korg Triton Le/TR entry-level workstations.
Despite the similar name and later introduction, the Juno-G was not set to replace the popular Juno-D synthesizer: both ran concurrently. Apart from the Juno name, the G and the D have little in common, the D having its roots in Roland's RS PCM machines.
Features
The Juno-G has the same sound engine as the Fantom-X series: 128-voice polyphony, 768 patches and 256 GM2 patches within the 64 MB of wave memory, with 16 MIDI plus 4 stereo audio tracks for recording and mixing.
It is also fully Windows and Mac compatible,[clarification needed] connecting through USB for MIDI and data transfer. Conventional MIDI In and Out sockets are also provided, although there is no MIDI Thru socket. Up to 2 GB CompactFlash and Secure Digital memory cards are accepted using a standard PC card adapter. A single SRX expansion board slot and a PC133 RAM slot is also available for DIMMs up to 512mb.
Version 2 of the keyboard's operating system is available as a free download, which allows user-sampling, waveform editing, and sample triggering.[2]
Juno-Gi
The Juno-G was discontinued in 2010, when Roland introduced its followup, the Juno-Gi. The Juno-Gi is a 128-voice polyphony keyboard that contains about 1,300 sounds and an eight-track digital recorder with guitar, microphone and line inputs.[3]
