EightySix Logo

Circuit modeled after my very own, meticulously restored Roland Juno-6 hardware unit — the iconic synth behind countless 80s hits and neon-soaked soundtracks. Lush pads, shimmering choruses, and that unmistakable analog warmth, right in your DAW.

EightySix Synthesizer Interface

EIGHTYSIX SYNTH

The Roland Juno-6 — in your DAW.

OSCILLATORS

Saw, pulse, and sub oscillator per voice, just like the original. The pulse oscillator has manual and LFO-driven pulse width modulation. All waveforms and levels are modeled after my Juno-6.

FILTER

The classic Juno low-pass ladder filter with resonance, plus a high-pass filter. Modulation by envelope, LFO, and keyboard tracking. Sounds and behaves like the real thing — I spent a lot of time getting this one right.

CHORUS

The iconic Juno chorus with Mode I and Mode II, measured from the real hardware. Front-panel buttons give you the original settings, or tweak the knobs to go beyond.

ENVELOPE & LFO

ADSR envelope and sine LFO, matched to the original timings. PWM has three modes (envelope, manual, LFO) just like the front panel of the real synth.

ARPEGGIO & HOLD & TUNING

Not yet implemented. Coming in a future update.

EFFECTS

EightySix features the DarkStar Reverb and Delay engine to bring your sound to the next level.
