Juno-106

The warm one.

The Juno-106 is simpler than the 60 in some ways and smarter in others. It adds MIDI, 128 patch memories and faders that send their movements over MIDI. The architecture is the same: one oscillator, one sub-oscillator, one lush filter and that chorus.

Its custom voice chips are known to fail, and owners fix them anyway. This site's colours and the synth you can play on it are borrowed from its panel.
