Roland has really done it this time with the Juno GI.
It fills the need for an inexpensive workstation with an onboard
8 track audio recorder. The Juno Gi makes it so easy to go
from nothing to a fully produced recording with everything needed
for a hit song ready to be uploaded to the internet. The Roland Juno Gi has lots of great
onboard effects for keyboard tracks plus guitar, vocal and everything else.
You won't be able to keep your hands off this one. Get yourself a Juno Gi today!
In the JUNO tradition of great sound, compact design, easy operation, and affordable price, the new JUNO-Gi delivers big. What propels this power-synth into another realm, however, is its supercharged feature set with over 1,300 fresh sounds, an onboard eight-track digital recorder, and pro effects created by BOSS. Write, record, mix, master, and perform anywhere with the new JUNO-Gi.
Over 1,300 high-quality sounds optimized for live performance
Friendly operation with dedicated controls and large display
Lightweight, compact body with battery compatibility
128-voice polyphony
Intuitive user interface, including dedicated Tone Category buttons and large display
Full-featured 8-track digital recorder onboard with Guitar/Mic/Line inputs
Plug in a guitar and play/record with built-in pro guitar effects derived from BOSS’ GT series
High-capacity SDHC card slot for data storage and direct play
Complete mobility when used with a battery-powered PA or amp such as the Roland’s BA-330 or KC-110
New Soundbank
A new sound library has been created for the JUNO-Gi, with over 1,300 factory
selections that cover a universe of instrument types and musical styles. Tone
Category buttons help you scan the vast library and locate the perfect sound
with ease and speed. New to the JUNO-Gi are Live Sets, which comprise up to four
layered tones each — create your own unique sounds by stacking and/or splitting
tones and saving them together as a Live Set. Furthermore, a Special Live Set
section takes maximum advantage of the JUNO-Gi sound engine for the most
advanced synth sounds.
Performance and Portability
The JUNO-Gi has been designed with the performer in mind. It provides supreme
mobility thanks to its lightweight body and battery-power compatibility (up to
three hours of continuous operation with eight NiMH AA batteries), letting you
experience the freedom of performance in any environment. Roland’s
battery-powered amps such as the BA-330 and KC-110 are perfect companions for
the JUNO-Gi during street performances.
Performers will also appreciate the JUNO-Gi’s friendly front panel, which is
covered with hands-on controls, clearly marked and easy to reach. The enlarged
240 x 64 graphic LCD provides clear visibility and fast navigation, even on
outdoor gigs with troublesome sunglare.
Digital Recording & FX
Pro recording onboard! The JUNO-Gi’s built-in eight-track digital recorder with
64 virtual tracks provides a full-featured multitrack studio environment,
complete with dedicated transport controls and mix faders. The recording media
is a removable SD or SDHC card, with up to 192 hours of recording time possible
when using a single 32GB SDHC card! Also supported is full import and export of
track data with a computer. The same pro performance effects found in the BOSS
GT-Series are built into the JUNO-Gi, as well as effects designed for vocal
processing. Connect a guitar or microphone directly and apply these top-quality
effects for instant CD-quality sound as you record.
USB MIDI & Audio
The JUNO-Gi’s multifunction USB port offers both audio and MIDI functionality —
a one cable connection to your computer is all you need to stream audio and MIDI
back and forth and interface with your favorite music software. When you combine
the JUNO-Gi with the bundled Cakewalk Sonar LE 8.5 software, you have a complete
digital audio workstation package for your PC. In addition, the MIDI Controller
Mode lets you operate the JUNO-Gi as a MIDI master keyboard for controlling
external MIDI devices.
