The Juno106 is world-famous for its great tone and ease of use. It has just enough parameters to make some incredibly useful sounds and not enough to make the inexperienced synthesists head explode from confusion. :) It's perfect for smooth analog basses, funky leads, noises, blips, beautiful warm analog strings and more. Its easy to tell when you hear it because few synths sound like it. The 106 is a real classic and an essential tool for many musicians and producers.  

This synth has been used on a wide range of recordings - from your favorite synthpop groups of the eighties to the best techno, house, hip hop, drum and bass, jazz and other artists of today. William Orbit (Madonna's producer), Vince Clarke of Erasure, the Chemical Brothers, the Prodigy, Human League, Shamen, Underworld, Moby, George Michael, Autechre, Vangelis and many, many others.

This synth is similar to the Juno-60 and Juno-6 but has the added benefit of MIDI so you can use it with any hardware or computer MIDI sequencer.
