Konkret: eine Steuerspannung, die jeden Wert annehmen kann, ist formgleich; wie in der Natur; eine analoge wert- und zeitkontinuierliche Größe. Wenn man diese Größe als digital bezeichnen will, so bedeutet dies, sie wird als Zahlenwert auf einer ebenfalls gerasterten…

Roland JX8P Polyphoner Analogsynthesizer BACK TO Roland MENU / zurück zum Roland Menü! Ja, simmer den heut scho’ Vintage? Es begab sich in 1984, dem Orwell Jahr.

moogulator,

– the Roland Juno + Alpha Juno Synthesizer Series ROLAND SYNTHESIZER images (click the pic to enlarge it – if available) JUNO SERIES its simple user interface and the absence of ringmode, crossmod or any other „dirtmaker“ is responsible for the juno’s sound that always sounds „good“.. but is also reduced to the minimum. it has DCOs (one DCO plus SUB with pwm,saw,noise), it’s not as versatile like the jupiter series but this may be the cause for the name: juno a moon of jupiter?.. it’s LFO has one waveform…
