The Roland Juno-106 is a classic analog polysynth and remains popular due to its great sound and easy programmability. The panel provides basic control over Omnisphere, but enough to create a wide array of classic synth sounds. The fact the keyboard has no velocity sensitivity adds to the authentic 106 vibe when controlling Omnisphere. It’s not cheap on the used market, but if you already own one, make sure you try this profile.
