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! Learn More...

"This is a superior keyboard for the money."

This keyboard is very well built for being so light. The synth sounds are excellent. The high brass sounds are much better than those found in most other keyboards, although the low brass sounds are weak. The effects are very good. This keyboard is very easy to use, and the manual is a great improvement over other manuals that Roland has included with their products.
