Intense, warm & futuristic synth sounds ooze from the Jupiter 6 effortlessly. High quality construction throughout the entire unit with nice synth action on the keyboard, smooth filters (if a bit soft on the touch) and a rugged casing that insures your Jupiter will be around for years to come.
The Jupiter 6 excels at making great noises(often courtesy of the random LFO waveforms that can be assigned to either VCO), thick and lush pads or kinetic waveform effects. The sheer amount of good, usable sounds capable on the Jupiter 6 are amazing; the Jupiter 6 can be used anywhere in a mix--lead, bass, background, noise, organ, pads--whatever.
Excellent control available, with assignable VCO, VCF on both the LFO button and pitch bender. Coupled with an arpeggiator, the Jupiter 6 creates a lot of options in regard to sound control.
Overall, the Jupiter 6 is a professional, high-quality instrument deserving of the Roland name. Useful in any role or music style needing thick, warm synth sounds. As an added benefit, the Jupiter 6 is impressive looking--shaming any modern keyboard on mere looks alone.
If you like the Jupiter 8, and cannot find/afford one--check out the Jupiter 6. In my opinion, the Jupiter 6 is a better buy than a Juno 106/60 plus a SH 101 for about the same price.
