This is an upgraded version of the Alpha
Juno 1. It adds an extended 61 note keyboard with velocity
and aftertouch and an external memory
cartridge slot. Other than that it has the same great sound and
features as the Juno 1. Sliders and
buttons were replaced by membrane buttons and the Alpha Dial
which is used to edit and browse through
the extensive selection of parameters. The PG-300
controller/programmer gives you
traditional-slider-control of each parameter for much easier and
faster editing. It also has 64 presets
and 64 user patches, a nice LCD display, an LFO capable of
a very slow rate for some cool sweeping
effects, and great bass (especially acid basslines) and noise
effects! It also has chord memory (perfect
for rave/techno), portamento and keyboard transposing.
It is used by Vince
Clarke Matt Megaton Haines, Paul Hardcastle, Massive Attack, Bomb the Bass,
The Prodigy, Youth, Joey Beltram, Human
Resource and Dorsal.
