The Roland Boutique JU-06A is a compact synthesizer sound module that recreates both the Juno-60 and the Juno-106. It has the continuous high-pass filter of the 106 and the envelope-controllable pulse-width modulation of the 60. The filter behavior of both models can be switched from the front panel. The chorus is recreated too, including its adjustable noise.
It has metal panels and sliders with metal shafts, and it runs on batteries. A built-in speaker lets you play without other gear. It includes an arpeggiator, chord memory and a step sequencer, so you can build polyphonic sequenced phrases.
USB audio/MIDI, full-sized MIDI jacks and an external clock input let it connect to other gear, including vintage analog instruments and eurorack systems. It can be controlled from a master keyboard or a DAW. The DK-01 Boutique Dock gives it three tilt positions. The optional Roland K-25m Keyboard Unit, sold separately, makes it a self-contained portable instrument.
