USING THE UNIT SAFELY

001

• Before using this unit, make sure to read the instruc-tions below, and the Owner’s Manual.

... 002d

• Do not open or perform any internal modifications on the unit or its AC adaptor. (The only exception would be where this manual provides specific instructions which should be followed in order to put in place user-installable options; see p. 174, p. 176.)

... 003

• Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts within it (except when this manual provides specific instructions directing you to do so). Refer all servicing to your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.

... 004

• Never use or store the unit in places that are:

• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating duct, on top of heat-generating equipment); or are

• Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet floors); or are • Humid; or are

• Exposed to rain; or are • Dusty; or are

• Subject to high levels of vibration.

... 005

• This unit should be used only with a stand (KS-12) that is recommended by Roland.

006

• When using the unit with a stand (KS-12) recommended by Roland, the rack or stand must be carefully placed so it is level and sure to remain stable. If not using a rack or stand, you still need to make sure that any location you choose for placing the unit provides a level surface that will properly support the unit, and keep it from wobbling.

... 008c

• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation matches the input voltage specified on the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may use a different polarity, or be designed for a different voltage, so their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

... 008e

• Use only the attached power-supply cord. Also, the supplied power cord must not be used with any other device.

... 009

• Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the cord, producing severed elements and short circuits. Damaged cords are fire and shock hazards!

... 010

• This unit, either alone or in combination with an amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a long period of time at a high volume level, or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult an audiologist.

IMPORTANT: THE WIRES IN THIS MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE. BLUE:

BROWN:

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED. Under no circumstances must either of the above wires be connected to the earth terminal of a three pin plug.

011

• Do not allow any objects (e.g., flammable material, coins, pins); or liquids of any kind (water, soft drinks, etc.) to penetrate the unit. When you install the Wave Expansion Board (SRX series) or memory (DIMM), please be careful particularly.

... 012b

• Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC adaptor from the outlet, and request servicing by your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page when:

• The AC adaptor, the power-supply cord, or the plug has been damaged; or

• If smoke or unusual odor occurs

• Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been spilled onto the unit; or

• The unit has been exposed to rain (or otherwise has become wet); or

• The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.

... 013

• In households with small children, an adult should provide supervision until the child is capable of following all the rules essential for the safe operation of the unit.

... 014

• Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)

... 015

• Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share an outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices. Be especially careful when using extension cords—the total power used by all devices you have connected to the extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the cord to heat up and eventually melt through.

... 016

• Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Infor-mation” page.

... 022b

• Always turn the unit off and unplug the AC adaptor before attempting installation of the circuit board (SRX series; p. 174, DIMM; p. 176).

... 023

• DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a conventional audio CD player. The resulting sound may be of a level that could cause permanent hearing loss. Damage to speakers or other system components may result.

101b

• The unit and the AC adaptor should be located so their location or position does not interfere with their proper ventilation.

... 101c

• This (JUNO-G) for use only with Roland stand (KS-12). Use with other stands is capable of resulting in instability causing possible injury.

... 102c

• Always grasp only the plug on the AC adaptor cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

... 103b

• At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC adaptor and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and other accumulations away from its prongs. Also, disconnect the power plug from the power outlet whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time. Any accumulation of dust between the power plug and the power outlet can result in poor insulation and lead to fire.

... 104

• Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed so they are out of the reach of children.

... 106

• Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on the unit.

... 107c

• Never handle the AC adaptor or its plugs with wet hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

... 108b

• Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC adaptor and all cords coming from external devices.

... 109b

• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet (p. 15).

... 110b

• Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet.

... 115a

• Install only the specified circuit board(s) (SRX series, DIMM). Remove only the specified screws (p. 174, p. 176).

... 118a

• Should you remove the ground terminal screw or screws that fasten the bottom cover or the PC card protector, keep them in a safe place out of children’s reach, so there is no chance of them being swallowed accidentally.

IMPORTANT NOTES

291a

In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2–3, please read and observe the following:

Power Supply

301

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.

302

• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.

307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

351

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.

352a

• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.

352b

• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while

conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.

354a

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

355b

• When moved from one location to another where the temper-ature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (conden-sation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.

358

• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing to produce sound.

360

• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.

Maintenance

401a

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. After-wards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

402

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Repairs and Data

452

• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data should always be backed up on a memory card, or written down on paper (when possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.

Additional Precautions

551

• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that you periodically save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the unit’s memory on a memory card.

552

• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored on a memory card or unit’s memory once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability

concerning such loss of data.

553

• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

554

• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.

556

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.

558a

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night).

559a

• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

561

• Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.

562

• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make of connection cable, please note the following precautions.

• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.

566b

• The sensitivity of the D Beam controller will change depending on the amount of light in the vicinity of the unit. If it does not function as you expect, adjust the sensitivity as appropriate for the brightness of your location.

(5)

IMPORTANT NOTES

Before Using Cards

Using Memory Cards (p. 178)

704

• Carefully insert the memory card all the way in—until it is firmly in place.

705

• Never touch the terminals of the memory card. Also, avoid getting the terminals dirty.

707

• This unit’s PC card slot accepts CompactFlash memory cards. Microdrive storage media are not compatible.

708

• CompactFlash and SmartMedia (3.3 V) are constructed using precision components; handle the cards carefully, paying particular note to the following.

• To prevent damage to the cards from static electricity, be sure to discharge any static electricity from your own body before handling the cards.

• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact with the contact portion of the cards.

• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock or vibration.

• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed vehicles, or other such locations (storage temperature: -25 to 85˚ C). • Do not allow cards to become wet.

• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.

Main Features

The JUNO-G is a high-quality synthesizer with professional sounds and playability. It features the latest sound generator, a variety of effects, and a song recorder with audio tracks, all combined into an easy-to-use instrument. The features listed below make the JUNO-G a great choice for any style of music, in applications ranging from stage performance to composition and arranging.

The latest sound engine with

128-voice polyphony

The JUNO-G provides 128 voices of polyphony—the standard for the new era. You can layer complex sounds and enjoy multitrack recording using the song recorder.

Support for wave expansion boards

To supplement the numerous patches that use the carefully selected high quality waves built into the JUNO-G, you can install one wave expansion board to add more waveform data. Depending on your needs and your favorite musical styles, you can choose one board from the wide variety of professionally acclaimed Roland SRX series boards now available.

Song recorder with audio tracks

The built-in song recorder provides four dedicated audio tracks (stereo) in addition to the MIDI tracks (16 parts). This lets you create songs that contain audio acquired from a performing vocalist or guitarist in combination with the music produced by the internal sound generator.

The MIDI track section provides a high-resolution 16-part (MIDI) sequencer that’s designed with features like loop recording so that you can record non-stop without interrupting your musical imagination.

The audio track section contains 4 MB of memory as standard (corresponding to approximately 23.5 seconds of stereo recording). You can add DIMM memory (up to 512 MB) to expand the recording capacity to a maximum of 51 minutes (stereo). In addition to audio phrases you record on the JUNO-G, you can also import audio files (in WAV or AIFF format) from your PC and use them as audio track phrases.

Live Setting function

The Live Setting function allows you to memorize settings and recall them as your live set progresses, guaranteeing that your

performance will go smoothly.

Sample Patch function

This function lets you recall audio phrases from the audio tracks and play them on the keyboard just like patches or rhythm sets.

Powerful effects including mastering

functionality

The JUNO-G provides three multi-effects processors (78 types), plus independent chorus and reverb processors. There’s a mastering effect, indispensable for adding the final touch to your production, bringing your sound CD-master level impact and audio quality.

Versatile sound control functionality

In addition to a D Beam controller, the JUNO-G provides a wide range of controllers, such as the sound modify knobs and a hold pedal jack that can detect half-damper operations. The JUNO-G gives you complete control over your on-stage sound.

Plenty of external interfacing

The rear panel USB connector supports both file transfer and USB-MIDI, and can be switched as desired. There’s also a PC card slot that can accommodate SmartMedia or CompactFlash via a

commercially available adaptor. You can use a card to store as much as 1 GB of data (when using CompactFlash).

JUNO-G Editor/Librarian is included

Dedicated editor/librarian software is included, letting you edit and manage JUNO-G sounds from the large screen of your computer.

V-LINK functionality

V-LINK allows you to synchronize music and video, opening up completely new performance possibilities.

If you use the JUNO-G in conjunction with a V-LINK compatible video device (such as the Edirol motion dive .tokyo Performance Package, DV-7PR, PR-50, or V-4), you’ll be able to control the images using the same operations as when playing music on the JUNO-G.

General MIDI/GM2 compatibility

The JUNO-G is compatible with General MIDI/GM2, and is able to play back music data that complies with the General MIDI/GM2 standard (General MIDI scores).

Overview of the JUNO-G

Broadly speaking, the JUNO-G consists of a controller section, a sound generator section, and a song recorder section.

fig.BasicStruct.e

Controller Section

This section consists of the keyboard, pitch bend/modulation lever, panel knobs and buttons, and D Beam controller. It also includes any pedals that may be connected to the rear panel. The performance information generated when you do things such as press/release a key, or depress the hold pedal is converted into MIDI messages and sent to the sound generator section, song recorder section, and/or an external MIDI device.

Sound Generator Section

The sound generator section produces the sound. It receives MIDI messages from the controller section and song recorder section and/ or from an external MIDI device, generates musical sound according to the MIDI messages that were received, and outputs the sound from the output jacks or headphones jack.

Song Recorder Section

This consists of MIDI tracks, which record keyboard and controller operations as MIDI messages, and audio tracks, which record the performance data (sample events) used to trigger audio phrases (samples). The recorded data is sent to the sound generator section, reproducing the performance. MIDI messages recorded on MIDI tracks can also be transmitted from the MIDI OUT connector to control external MIDI devices.

Audio Track Recording

Audio track recording lets you capture sound from a CD player or microphone connected to the audio input jacks into the sound generator section as a sample. Performance data for that sample is recorded on the song recorder’s audio track as a sample event. The captured sample can be used in an audio track, or used in the same way as a sound generator waveform. You can also record the performance of the internal sound generator as a sample.

The JUNO-G can load WAV or AIFF format wave files as samples via a USB connection.

When using the JUNO-G, you will notice that a variety of different categories come into play when working with sounds. What follows is a simple explanation of each sound category.

Tones

On the JUNO-G, the tones are the smallest unit of sound. However, it is not possible to play a tone by itself. The patch is the unit of sound which can be played, and the tones are the basic building blocks which make up the patch.

fig.Tone.e

Tones consist of the following five components.

WG (Wave Generator)

Specifies the PCM waveform (wave) that is the basis of the sound, and determines how the pitch of the sound will change.

The JUNO-G has 1267 different waveforms. All patches built into the JUNO-G consist of combinations of tones which are created based on these waveforms.

* There are four wave generators for each rhythm tone (percussion instrument sounds).

TVF (Time Variant Filter)

Specifies how the frequency components of the sound will change.

TVA (Time Variant Amplifier)

Specifies the volume changes and the sound’s position in a stereo soundfield.

Envelope

You use Envelope to initiate changes to occur to a sound over time. There are separate envelopes for Pitch, TVF (filter), and TVA (volume). For example if you wish to modify the way in which the sound attacks or decays over time, you would adjust the TVA envelope.

LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator)

Use the LFO to create cyclic changes (modulation) in a sound. The JUNO-G has two LFOs. You can use the LFO to apply an effect to either the WG (pitch), the TVF (filter), or the TVA (volume). When an LFO is applied to the WG pitch, a vibrato effect is produced. When an LFO is applied to the TVF cutoff frequency, a wah effect is produced. When an LFO is applied to the TVA volume, a tremolo

effect is produced.

* LFO is not included in the rhythm tones (percussion instrument sounds).

Patches

Patches are the basic sound configurations that you play during a performance. Each patch can be configured by combining up to four tones. How the four tones are combined is determined by the Structure Type parameter (p. 35).

fig.Patch.e

Rhythm Sets

Rhythm sets are groups of a number of different percussion instrument sounds. Since percussion instruments generally do not play melodies, there is no need for a percussion instrument sound to be able to play a scale on the keyboard. It is, however, more important that as many percussion instruments as possible be available to you at the same time. Therefore, each key (note number) of a rhythm set will produce a different percussion instrument.

fig.RhythmSet.e

Each percussion instrument consists of the following four elements. (For details, refer to the explanations for “Tones.”)

• WG (Wave Generator): 1–4 • TVF (Time Variant Filter) • TVA (Time Variant Amplifier) • Envelope

Performances

A performance has a patch or rhythm set assigned to each of the 16 parts, and can simultaneously handle 16 sounds.

The JUNO-G’s performances are controlled via two screens; a Play screen and a Part Mixer screen (p. 58).

Use the PLAY screen if you want to play two or more patches together (Layer) or play different patches in separate areas of the keyboard (Split).

Use the MIXER screen if you want to “mix” by individually adjusting the pan and level settings for each of the sixteen parts. Because the JUNO-G sound generator can control multiple sounds (instruments), it is called a Multi-timbral sound generator.

fig.Performance.e

Part

On the JUNO-G, a “part” is something to which you assign a patch or rhythm set. In Patch mode you can assign a patch or rhythm set to the keyboard. In Performance mode, each performance has sixteen parts, and you can assign a patch or rhythm set to each part.
