Performance instrument with new and old Juno developments.

The Roland JUNO-DS61 is a 61-key synthesizer that provides musicians, educators and producers with high-quality sounds, intuitive hands-on control and portability. Building on the success of its predecessor, the JUNO-DS61 features enhanced pianos and organs as well as the ability to load over 1,000 free sounds. Whether you want to call up professionally designed presets or build your own custom patches, the JUNO-DS61 gives you the tools you need. The eight Phrase Pads allow you to enhance your performance with samples, while the onboard 8-track sequencer lets you capture ideas on the fly. Coupled with its mic input, USB interface and battery power, the lightweight yet gig-ready JUNO-DS61 is ideal for any style or setting.

Upgrade your sound palette with free downloads
In addition to its massive collection of high-quality sounds, the JUNO-DS61 provides access to over 1,000 free sounds that can be downloaded to the wave expansion slot. Choose from acoustic pianos, vintage keys, world instruments, percussion, loops and more. You can also load your own WAV files and play them straight from the 61-note keyboard. The preloaded EXP-06 Studio Collection provides a versatile starting point for expanding your sonic options.

Eight Phrase Pads for instant sound enhancement
The JUNO-DS61's eight Phrase Pads allow you to add samples, vocals, sound effects and complete tracks to your performance at the touch of a button. Load audio files of virtually any type onto a USB drive and trigger them as needed to supplement your playing. The Phrase Pads provide an easy way to create fuller arrangements, facilitate looping and open up more creative possibilities during a live show or in the studio.

High-quality vocal effects for solo performers
Singer-songwriters will appreciate the JUNO-DS61's dedicated vocal effects and mic input. In addition to reverb, you get access to an Auto Pitch effect for electronic-style pitch shifting and a vocoder for controlling vocal tone and pitch with the keyboard. The mic channel also has its own reverb, allowing you to add ambience and depth independently of the main sound output. With the JUNO-DS61, solo performers have everything they need to deliver pro-level vocals.

An integrated studio centerpiece
Despite its lightweight, portable design, the JUNO-DS61 functions as an all-in-one studio solution. Its built-in USB interface allows you to record both audio and MIDI to your computer. You can also use the JUNO-DS61 to control your DAW using the dedicated DAW Control mode. Whether composing on the go or building tracks at home, the JUNO-DS61 provides a powerful and inspiring centerpiece for any studio setup.
