The JUNO-G will change your musical life

A synth you

can carry

At a mere 6.2 kg (13 lbs. 11

oz.), this is one of the lightest

61-key synthesizers available.

You can easily carry it to live

performances or to the studio.

If you’ve been using the equip-

ment provided by the studio

because your own synth is too

heavy to carry, it’s time for a

change. With the JUNO-G, you

can take it anywhere.

Your very own studio

The JUNO-G gives you all the equipment you need for

music production. The multi-eect unit provides 78 eect

types that cover all your instrumental or studio needs.

There’s rhythm machine-like functionality for creating

and playing rhythm patterns, so you can start grooving

immediately. The “song recorder” gives you step-record-

ing capability as well as realtime-recording that’s as easy

as using a multi-track tape recorder, letting you create an

entire song — complete with vocals! — on just the JUNO-

G without needing any other equipment. The instant you

get your hands on the JUNO-G, you’ve got your own very

powerful studio.

A whole world of instruments

The JUNO-G is powered by a high-quality synth engine. It contains

1,024 dierent sounds, ranging from standards such as piano, elec-

tric piano, organ, and strings, to unusual ethnic instruments and rare

large instruments. There are also 45 drum sets, letting you generate

beats of any style. With the JUNO-G, a whole world of musical instru-

ments is at your ngertips.

Computer

connection

The JUNO-G’s USB connector gives

you a single-cable connection to your

computer, allowing you to transfer

song data that you created on the

JUNO-G. After transferring the data

to your computer, you can use it to

easily burn your own CD. The “JUNO-G

Editor” software that’s included with

the JUNO-G lets you edit the JUNO-G’s

sounds on the screen of your com-

puter, further expanding the potential

of this versatile instrument.

IntroIntro
