Old-School Ease, Cutting-Edge Features
Look familiar? True to its heritage, the new JUNO-G is affordable and user-friendly. But that's where the comparisons to yesteryear end. This modern marvel packs a studio's worth of sound, sequencing, and audio recording into one amazing instrument. Sharing the same high-powered processor as Roland's famous Fantom-X series, the JUNO-G puts a world of first-class sound and performance features under musicians' fingertips -- and allows more sounds to be added via SRX expansion. Songs can be created with the onboard audio/MIDI recorder, all for an incredibly low price!
Features:
Powerful "Fantom-X-quality" sound engine, 128-voice polyphony
Audio/MIDI multitrack recorder with dedicated transport controls and mixer
SRX slot for expanding the internal soundset
Large, friendly display and front-panel controls
Arpeggiator, Chord Memory, and multi-effects built-in
USB port for MIDI communication, AIF/WAV file exchange, and data transfer
PC Card slot (which accepts CompactFlash or SmartMedia cards via adapter)
Cakewalk SONAR LE software CD-ROM bundled
Invisible infrared D Beam controller
Great Sounds
Roland's Fantom-X series is a grand-slam hit around the globe. The Fantom's high-quality sound engine is a key factor in its success. The JUNO-G shares the same processor as the Fantom-X, and thus delivers the finest sound quality on the market -- including an 88-note multisampled grand piano, and a wide range of sounds that span from classical to cutting-edge. You can further expand your JUNO-G with one of Roland's SRX expansion boards (optional).
Audio/MIDI Recorder Onboard
For songwriters and performers, the JUNO-G's 16-part MIDI sequencer is a must. But the addition of 4 companion stereo audio tracks is a huge bonus, and an unexpected surprise for an instrument in this price range! Now players can lay down the perfect backing tracks plus vocals, live guitar parts, and the like. The JUNO-G's dedicated front-panel transport controls and mixer make the recording experience all the more friendly.
Inviting Interface
For an instrument packed with so many features, the JUNO-G offers unprecedented ease of use. The aforementioned mixer and transport controls are only part of the friendly "hands-on" work surface. It has clearly labeled buttons, six knobs to modify sounds, five sliders for the audio section, a data wheel, a D Beam, and a pitch/mod lever. In the center of it all is the largest backlit LCD of any synth in this price range.
Computer Friendly
The beauty of the JUNO-G is that it can be used to by itself create complete songs from start to finish, but for those who want to take it one step further and incorporate a computer into the setup, the JUNO-G can be linked to a PC or Mac via its USB port. All MIDI communications can be handled over USB, which can also be used to send and receive WAV/AIF files and patch data. As an extra computer-related bonus, Roland ships every new JUNO-G with a copy of Cakewalk's Sonar LE software for PC.
JUNO-G Version 2.0
The sonically charged Juno-G workstation just got recharged with the introduction of Version 2.0 software, adding Fantom-series audio sampling functionality that you can use along-side all the other powerful Juno-G features. Version 2.0 software is a free download. The upgrade is easy to perform and in minutes, you’ll be sampling, chopping and sequencing your new sounds.
Sample audio from external sources or import audio phrases from the Juno-G’s compact flash memory.
Samples can be assigned to trigger from the Juno-G’s function buttons. Up to twelve samples can be triggered from the Juno-G’s front panel.
Velocity and note number can be assigned individually for each sample.
Adjust Start, End and Loop points using the Juno-G’s front panel control knobs.
Includes advanced sampling editing such as Truncate, Normalize, Emphases, Sample Chop and Combine.
Samples automatically BPM match in real-time to changes made to the tempo of your song.

"Powerhouse for Mainstream Recording!"
Feature:
Great features, really slick design and so comfortable to use. You can connect via USB to your computer and use editing features as well. I love the fact that everything is in the unit, no need to add external equip just to make a song.
Quality:
So far this thing is a beast! Great feel and I love that it is so portable. Well it's built pretty solid. The keys are your typical Roland standards.
Value:
This thing is definately worth the price! It's a true creating machine for all genre's for music. It also comes with Sonar Software for added creativity.
Desirability:
The design is smooth and looks powerful. It's compaq and looks like a serious unit. All the features are right in front of you, great!
Sound:
I just bought this board a week ago and so far it's the best. The sounds are great and perfect for al styles. It also comes with great sound effects out the box. I am in no rush to buy expansions because it is satisfying me right now. The biggest thing would be the drums. The 808 are a little weak, but will do.
Ease of Use:
I think it's the easiest board to use, everything is cut dry and to the point. I created a full song right out the box with without the manual. It actually comes with a quick start full color manual that will have you up and creating in minutes. if you can read you will create.
Support:
No Comment. No need so far!
Overall:
Overall I would give it a 9 and that's because you can only add 1 SRX Expansion Card and you have to purchase a Compaq card Adapter in order to insert it in the system memory card slot. Other than that, it's a steal for the money you paid for. The sounds are great and even the user memory can store songs without the card. Get this even on or not on a budget!!
