A New Synth Star for the Stage
Designed from the ground up for live performers,
the Roland JUNO-STAGE is a new breed of synthesizer that every gigging
keyboardist will love. Decked out with an extra-large display, USB backing-track
functionality, a Click output for drummers, dedicated performance knobs,
hands-free patch select, instant master MIDI control functionality and
much more, JUNO-STAGE sets a new standard for powerful onstage performance
at a friendly price.
Versatile, Expandable Sound Set
Carefully crafted for
the stage, JUNO-STAGE’s factory patch set covers a wide range of
essential sounds, including the flagship 88-key stereo multi-sampled
piano taken from the Fantom-X. Every JUNO-STAGE can also be expanded
and customized via two Roland SRX Wave Expansion Boards (sold separately).
Instant Access to Sounds
On stage, you need quick and
effortless access to your patches. JUNO-STAGE is equipped with FAVORITE
buttons for instant access to banks of your most-needed sounds. Best
of all, you can also recall your patches via a dual footswitch* connected
to a dedicated Patch Select jack, so you never have to take your hands
off the keyboard.
Live-Performance Control
Roland optimized JUNO-STAGE’s
controllers for live performance, featuring easy-to-grab knobs for instant
Master EQ and Reverb control. Located above the pitch bender, two assignable
switches can be used for rotary organ effects, portamento on/off, and
more.
Backing Tracks Via USB
The Roland JUNO-STAGE is equipped with
a USB port and Song Player function that enables direct playback and
control of backing tracks from a USB key. You can play MP3, .WAV, AIFF
and SMF files, and even use the Center Cancel feature to minimize pre-recorded
vocals for karaoke-style performance. Creating and editing playlists
is simple with the supplied Playlist Editor software for PC; the playlist
can be viewed on JUNO-STAGE’s display.
Instant Master MIDI Control
The fast and friendly MIDI Controller mode,
complete with dedicated buttons, transforms JUNO-STAGE into a MIDI master
keyboard. In this mode, JUNO-STAGE allows program and control changes
to be sent with a single touch. MIDI-channel assignments are displayed
in a clear, easy-to-understand format.
Stage-Friendly Bonus Features
The Roland JUNO-STAGE is packed with great features
for live performance, such as an XLR mic input with phantom power (ideal
for vocal sing-along performance or driving the built-in vocoder), Click
output (for sending an audible click track to bandmates onstage), and
an external input for a portable audio player.
