Look for all that UA-cam NOOBs, that get paid for showing the JU-06A, with millions of followers...but a great guy with 1k subs NAILED it. THX for that great sound demo and showing the infos.
I had the Juno-6 in the early eighties, just order the JU06. I have the JX08 that has impressed me. Taking new synth for a comparison with the "originals" is not the right attuitude to electronic music. After all, embracing new ideas and sounds is what makes the art of electronic music what it is. But I must admit, the JU06 sounds damn close to the Juno6 which hits my nostalgic sweet spots.
Roland should pay you for this brilliant track ...as it highlighted the the potential of this little boutique synth...I passed on this one only because I dont like the mini jacks and usb power source....
Glad you like the track - and feel free to send your suggestion to Roland, haha! :) I would have preferred 2 normal jacks as well, but I see how it would take up a lot of space, in a small unit. And to be honest, once the minijack cable is plugged in, I don't even think about it anymore. I actually find the USB-power quite handy - it's indeed much more neat in my studio, than the ton of big power supplies. I think it's mainly a matter of haibt :) Thanks again for the kind words!
To be honest we all have a lot of gripes about the poly and connectors, I'd like a hardware chorus and analog filter thrown in too but if you are even remotely interested in the Juno sound then you might as well buy one and sell it when they release a professional edition. What will you lose, 50 quid at the most and in the meantime you could be having some fun with the unit and remember you can record crystal clear digitally via usb so it doesn't matter that much regarding the limitations when it comes to recording. I wasn't going to buy one for all the reasons you listed but in the end gave in.
The Redface Official it sounds awesome! I’ve seen multiple videos A/B testing it with the original 60/106, and to be honest, I can’t tell the difference - extremely analogue sounding for a digital synth :)
I was going through the rabbit hole of synth videos, and I found this video. Told myself it was sounding super nice, looked at the user and i was like.. OH DAMN IT'S KRIS !!!!!! Super cool video dude.
Thank you, very useful and great track! Why didn't Roland produce such a demo :) ps.: please dear youtube algorithm, put this video way up, so it gets more views, because it is one of the best demo-reviews of this synth out there!
Glad you like the track! Only had mine for a few weeks - can't wait to play around some more with it - some sweet sounds coming out of this sexy little thing!
@@KrisONeilfirst of all, you already made a tune of it, and it just has a very educational music video. the song is great. second of all, it would sound exactly the same on the original junos. that's the whole point of the ju-6a.
Very nice demo. I'm planning to buy 2 eventually. I used to have a Juno-106 "back in the day" but it was stolen. I've missed it ever since and this is a nice replacement in a portable and compact package.
Thank you so much for this video. It really highlights what the machine is capable of. I got mine the other day and cannot put it down! I was impressed everything was coming from the synth with minimal processing... I have some work ahead of me now to lay down some tracks together with the TR-08 ;) I would love to see more synths from the Boutique line demo'd in this way!
Glad you like the video, and congrats on the JU-06A - sure is a great little synth! It's currently the only Boutique synth I own, but might look into doing something similar again - definitely had fun making this one :)
CHON Dublin Thanks Man, glad you like it! When I’m looking for synth videos myself, I generally like them to be to-the-point, informative regarding the specs, and give me an idea of how it’s sounds will actually sound in context (rather than spending 20 minutes tweaking the resonance), so that’s what I was aiming for here :) glad you like the soundtrack as well!
@@KrisONeil Cool, I bought a JU06A 2 weeks ago, still exploring it but very impressed with the little machine. Always wanted that 1980s sound ever since I was a teenager back then. Love it for bass and pads!
@@chondublin That's around the same time I got mine! And yes, always wanted a Juno-60/106 (still do, mainly for "romantic" reasons), but I'm having loads of fun with this one - and tbh, I can't tell the difference, soundwise. Even thinking of the JP-08 now! :-P
woah this looks amazing! just jumped onboard with Roland Cloud to get some of the other synths with ACB and I'm really happy. But I want to get some analog gear! this looks like its affordable and cool :D thanks for showing us Kris!
Got my first analogue synth recently and looking for something with a classics smooth vibe to use alongside its quirky grungier vibe. This thing sounds so warm and natural for a digital machine! Defo next on the list. Great demo love the captions :D
This sounds insanely close to the original, and some of the "quirky"-characteristics has even been added to this one as well (super noisy chorus, just like the original). Can definitely recommend :)
Congrats on the synth - I'm sure you'll have lots of fun with it :) And thanks, glad you like the demo! Any of the specific sounds you'd like a tutorial for?
Just Bought mine in December 2019, soooo much fun and very inspiring, has all the sounds I've been searching for, for so long. Totally affordable and total cool as f***. That track you have created is the tits, well done bro.
It's definitely a lot of fun to work with - loving mine as well! Glad you liked the tune - came together pretty quickly from just playing around with the synth :)
Wonderful demostration of ju-06a. Much better thant the official website of the roland. I also like the background drum track. How did you get spacy clap sound, like crash, but with long reverb. Can you please share the track. I can also payfor it. I am looking for this sound for years. Best regards
Your video was an inspiration for buying the JU-06a! Way better than the official one! I got one 3 days ago and is truly amazing. BTW do you send the patches to the DAW via MIDI/USB to have the patches you made with the DAW project file, or the only way to do this is making a backup from the JU-06a and loading the patches every time you are working with a song, like an old school music production?
Hey Max, sorry for the late response - missed your message. Glad you like the video :) I just make the patches on the unit, and put the bank/patch-number in the projectfile, so I can switch from patch to patch in between projects :)
Hi Kris. When you start the sequence at 16secs, is that playing over something you have recorded into external hardware or software or are both patterns running on the Ju06a ? Also can you play keys on the unit over the top of a sequence as it is running? Thanks
Hey! All the different sounds are recorded at separate takes, and then combined in the DAW. The synth isn't multi-timbral, so you can only do one sequence at a time. And yes, you can indeed use the buttons as keys :)
many many tanks ...wich do you recomend me or is a little better...the roland...he sound is so great or the deepminnd ? Wich daw do you usted with mashine ?
Your video are fo great ....many thanks...what modul do you used for the drums ??? I have looking the deepmind 12 but it sounds no realy great... Can you recoment me the Ju06a in your opinion
Carlos Ramme happy to hear so! :) for Drums I use Maschine. I have the Deepmind as well, which I also like - if you check out the “Blinding Lights” video on my channel, that’s with the Deepmind :)
So to connect this up and record in b my DAW, do I need to connect via USB plus stereo input into my audio interface for the audio? Or can everything be handled via USB?
I haven’t tried just using the USB port for audio, but on Rolands website it says “USB Port: MicroB type (Audio, MIDI)”, so potentially it can get the audio just via USB. If I remember correctly, you can use the unit as a soundcard as well, so you probably can do some routing to get the audio out without using the actual audio output.
Thanks for the reply Kris! Yeah I thought it might be the case. I'm pretty sure they have the same thing for the MC 101 and the TR8S. I only have 2 inputs on my interface and currently using 1 for a Moog Minitaur so potentially need to upgrade that if it does require audio inputs. I think I will get it anyway and see. Awesome demo by the way!
Hi Chris. Does usb power means you can power this unit with a mobile phone charger or usb directly from a laptop or PC? I'm new to usb powered devices. Thanks again
..can you sync the arpeggiator to external clock?Some say it's not, only the sequencer.... frankly it seems me pretty strange but you know it for sure . Thanks in advance
Hi Kris, some great sounds there. What did you use for beats - software or a drum machine? What drum machine would you recommend for some warm deep house vintage analogue beats please? Am looking to pair up with the JU-06. Thanks.
BreakingWavesPictures Thank you, glad you like it :) for drums I’m using the NI Maschine, which I can definitely recommend! :) They also have plenty of expansion packs, so I’m sure you can find some sounds that’ll be useful for your tracks :)
BreakingWavesPictures a Temptest would be great as well! Not near as flexible as the Maschine, but definitely authentic analogue drums sounds! Would love one as well :) got the DSI Tetra, which I love :)
Glad you like it :) The drums are samples, but all synth sounds are from the JU-06A indeed. There's a fair difference - also, the way the envelopes react etc. seem to be quite different between the two modes.. I love to program the kind of sound you're after, and then see which of the characteristics that suits the sound the best :)
Very nice work mate! I see you work in logic pro too!. Please, could you tell us how you made the drums? Is it a plugin? A sampler? Harware gear? Sounds very punchy!
@@KrisONeil how do you sync the tracks with each other? I just transfer the sound to Logic Pro via USB but as sound it self, not as information. I wonder if it's possible to get the sounds of the Juno in Logic Pro, but being able to modify the notes and its length within the software, kinda the same way you do when you create a new software track and add the notes manually and then iterate over the different instruments. I want to write the music on the software, click note by note, and then plug in the Juno and its power to provide the sound. Makes any sense? Was hard to write.
Sorry for the late response. They've been recorded individually, and then layered afterwards. The synth isn't multi-timbral, so you can only do one sound at a time :)
Glad you like the video! :) I've never played around with the JU-06, so I'm not entirely sure how big the difference is (other than you can switch between the 60 and 106 on this one). Always nice being able to play them at the same time though :)
Kris O'Neil I ended up getting the JU-06A a couple of weeks ago, LOVING IT!!! But, I’ll also keep my JU-06. I just received the A-01 yesterday. Got it from ebay for $145.00😎. Now all I need is the JX-03 and the VP-03 and I will have the entire Boutique Lineup!😎 It’s an addiction thing!😳
@@marcoagius6926 I don't own the Gaia, so can't test it myself, but from the looks of it I'm not quit sure it's possible :-/ I could be wrong though :)
Not dumb at all! :) and no, those are various samples - just put them in for context :) you probably can make some synthesized drums on it, but it’s not the case in this video.
Hey Laura, no, it's not multi-timbral - the sounds were recorded individually and then put together in a DAW indeed :) Apologies if it has caused confusion.
@@KrisONeil Thanks for the comment! How did you keep the bass in the center?! I really want to use the chorus for a bass line but as soon as I turn on the chorus my bass becomes hard panned left and right. What am I doing wrong?
Jay Park hmm, I don’t recall doing a lot (if anything) in terms of width for the video. Not sure why your stereo signal seems to get exaggerated. What cable do you use to connect to soundcard or mixer? And does it also happen when using headphones straight from the unit?

@@KrisONeil Maybe my question was confusing! :) so without the chorus the JU06A is mono, the sound is on center but when you turn on the Juno chorus it changes to stereo signal left and right as expected. But how did you get a bass sound on center when you are have the chorus on? did you just plug one cable to an audio interface?
Thats what I call an introduction to a synth.
Glad you like it! :)
Fuck yeah we liked it. The Juno 60/6 had the smoothest bouncy sound, love it!

I just transfer the sound to Logic Pro via USB but as sound it self, not as information.
I wonder if it's possible to get the sounds of the Juno in Logic Pro, but being able to modify the notes and its length within the software, kinda the same way you do when you create a new software track and add the notes manually and then iterate over the different instruments.
I want to write the music on the software, click note by note, and then plug in the Juno and its power to provide the sound.
Makes any sense?
Was hard to write.
Nice jam! Are the sounds you used from the factory presets or did you have to create them?
Sergio Valdez Thanks! I created them, but there are plenty of presets with these kind of sounds :)
Hi again! Can you control this boutique ju06 with the roland gaia sh01 via midi cable and use the gaia as a midi controller? Thanks
Hi, I was wondering if you could add all these different patterns live or you added all up afterwards
Cheers
Sorry for the late response. They've been recorded individually, and then layered afterwards. The synth isn't multi-timbral, so you can only do one sound at a time :)
I already have the JU-06, Is the JU-06A worth adding to the boutique collection? BTW, NICE VIDEO!!!
Glad you like the video! :) I've never played around with the JU-06, so I'm not entirely sure how big the difference is (other than you can switch between the 60 and 106 on this one). Always nice being able to play them at the same time though :)
Kris O'Neil I ended up getting the JU-06A a couple of weeks ago, LOVING IT!!! But, I’ll also keep my JU-06. I just received the A-01 yesterday. Got it from ebay for $145.00😎. Now all I need is the JX-03 and the VP-03 and I will have the entire Boutique Lineup!😎 It’s an addiction thing!😳
Donald's UA-cam Channel you can go for 8 voices now!
wow excellent video! What do you think about working with the Roland sh-01a and Roland JU-06A together?
Hey Jean, Unfortunately I don't own the SH-01A (definitely considering it though), but I'm sure the two will make a great team!
@@KrisONeil thx!
Hi! Can you sync the ju06 with the alesis sr16 drum machine? Thanks
Hey Marco, is it the sequencer you want to play along with the SR16?
@@KrisONeil no, the roland gaia arpeggiator
@@marcoagius6926 I don't own the Gaia, so can't test it myself, but from the looks of it I'm not quit sure it's possible :-/ I could be wrong though :)
@@KrisONeil okay thanks
Hey, great track. One of these is on the xmas list. Did you build the stand yourself. Or buy somewhere?
Thank you, glad you like it! The stand is from eBay - loving it! :)
dude what a SICK track! how did u make the drums for this? Love it:D
Thanks man! Drums are just one-shot samples triggered off the Maschine 😊
1:53 bit of acid in there too
Yeah, figured few people would expect an acid-line in a Juno-video, so thought it would be fun to put one in there :)
Did the JU 06 do the drums as well? All of the music is from one unit? Sorry if this is a dumb question
Not dumb at all! :) and no, those are various samples - just put them in for context :) you probably can make some synthesized drums on it, but it’s not the case in this video.
does it sound better than Softube's Model 84 emulation? I mean they're both digital..
Hey Justin! I’ve never tried the Model 84, so I’m afraid I can’t tell :-/ Softube’s stuff is usually of great quality though 😊
Is there a way to control the bpm of the arpeggiator directly on the JU-06A?
Is the module detachable from the actual keyboard?
It’s without the keyboard per default 😊
Have you only used the 06a for this track?
For all the synth sounds, yes - only the drums aren't from the JU06A :)
@@KrisONeil Thank you mate.
My pleasure - thanks for the kind words :)
Wait a sec, all of the sounds are from the instrument or was there a DAW used to arrange/layer?
It's not multi-timbral, is it?
No i dont think it is multi timbral. But the video makes it seem like it is
Hey Laura, no, it's not multi-timbral - the sounds were recorded individually and then put together in a DAW indeed :) Apologies if it has caused confusion.
Hi, can you see the Bpm on the screen ?
Haven't used the arp in a while, but if I recall correctly, it shows up on the screen, yes. Will check asap and get back to you :)
awesome video! how did you get the bass with the chorus? When I use turn on the chorus a bass sound becomes stereo hard panned
Glad you like it! The amount of width is definitely hard to control on the actual unit, so is best adjusted in a DAW or so.
@@KrisONeil Thanks for the comment! How did you keep the bass in the center?! I really want to use the chorus for a bass line but as soon as I turn on the chorus my bass becomes hard panned left and right. What am I doing wrong?
Jay Park hmm, I don’t recall doing a lot (if anything) in terms of width for the video. Not sure why your stereo signal seems to get exaggerated. What cable do you use to connect to soundcard or mixer? And does it also happen when using headphones straight from the unit?

@@KrisONeil Maybe my question was confusing! :) so without the chorus the JU06A is mono, the sound is on center but when you turn on the Juno chorus it changes to stereo signal left and right as expected. But how did you get a bass sound on center when you are have the chorus on? did you just plug one cable to an audio interface?
