Best Juno 60, Roland SH101, and minimoog plugin

Hi everyone!

I’m curious to hear your opinions!

Whats the best Juno plugin?

  1. Arturia?
  2. Softube Model 84?
  3. TAL-UNO?

and what about 101? Model 82? TAL-Bassline?

and minimoog? the app/vst from moog? or also softube? arturia?

Please share your experiences :slight_smile:

in my opinion: Softube for all three.
I compared them all.

Never owned the originals though
The softubes have some extra punch and magic in my ears. Their Juno is my favorite analog modeling

Most reviews I read seem to more or less agree on the softubes one. they are on sale now, perhaps I should go for it. Anyone have experience with the modular stuff from softube? can you use the modular sequencers to sequence other synth vsts (or create a midi pattern for instance?)

I got the Tal 101 the other day and it seems good. I was too tight for the Softube :stuck_out_tongue: it seems like people have enjoyed it for years before the Softube one…

The later modules from their juno, sh101 and moog (you get the modules when you purchase the synths) sound superb and eat much less cpu .
The earlier doepfer and intellijel modules eat cpu for breakfast. On older macs pretty much unusable.
Probably less of a problem on the new m1/m2 macs.

I don’t like the ui. Adding and arranging modules is cumbersome.

You can sequence other synths with these modules, there is a midi in/out module

Just regarding to the thread title: The softube juno is modeled after the 106.
The TAL after the 60

good addition. And I believe the arturia one emulates the Juno 6?

I can vouch for Softube. The Juno and 101 are something special in my opinion!

Recently bought the softube juno and think it sounds great. Though not a direct copy i also rate diva for Juno and moog sounds

Did a quick patch with the Juno osc in softube modular layering it with the doepfer osc which sounded great

I plan to pick up the 101 and moog softube apps when i can afford them. Maybe parallels also

I have the softtube 101, but I can’t get it so save in the state I want. parameters are changed after opening the project next session

Roland Cloud stuff sounds great…

never had this problem. Did you write to their support?

not yet, will do

I can’t contact them as they think im a robot…

edit: it works now

Does anyone have opinions on how the Roland JU-06A compares to Juno-60 plug-in emulations?

Which DAW and which plugin format?

This happens to me too, using Ableton 11 (on all Softube Model plugins - VST3) :frowning: I think I noticed one instance saved properly which has a bunch of M4L LFOs modulating it. I’ll contact support as well.

That said, the Softube emulations sound best to me, after testing against the competition. I have my Moog and Roland flavors covered with them.

Haven’t tried the softube 101, but the TAL is great, does the job well & has a great sequencer. I own most of the TAL synths, he’s a great developer.

for me, TAL.
would love to have Bassline-101 for iOS, but unfortunately U-NO-LX is currently the only one.

Yeah, I’ve been hoping for that too
