Not rated yet
Arturia's software model of the Roland Juno-6, a simple one-oscillator polysynth with its famous BBD stereo chorus.
It adds 36-voice polyphony, a second modulation layer, an arpeggiator with chord voicings, and delay and reverb, while keeping the original's quick, hands-on layout.
Best for: Keys & Synths, Bass, Sound Design. Genres: Electronic & EDM, Pop, Lo-Fi, Ambient & Cinematic, R&B & Soul.

What it does
Jun-6 V is Arturia's emulation of the Roland Juno-6, billed as "Instant analog love." It uses Arturia's TAE analog modeling to recreate the Juno's single-oscillator voice, filter and chorus, then adds modern extras.
- Voice and filters: up to 36 voices, a 24 dB low-pass filter plus a high-pass filter, 2 ADSR envelopes and 2 LFOs.
- BBD chorus: a 3-mode stereo chorus modeled on the bucket-brigade circuit that defines the Juno sound.
- Arpeggiator and chords: an arpeggiator with up to 12 customizable chord voicings, plus unison, portamento and voice detune.
- Effects: modulatable delay and reverb built in.
- Presets: 180+ factory presets covering bass, leads, organs, pads, arpeggios, keys and effects.
It is also part of V Collection.
When to use it
Jun-6 V is the pick when you want the Juno-6 layout with a larger voice count, chord arpeggiator and built-in effects in Arturia's V Collection workflow. It models the Juno-6, where TAL-U-NO-LX, the long-running alternative, is based on the Juno-60 and Softube Model 84 models the Juno-106, and it is narrower than u-he Diva, which covers several classic analog synths in one plugin. Unlike Arturia's own Chorus JUN-6, which gives you just the chorus as an effect, it is the full synth.
- Best for: warm pads, chorused chords, simple basses and arpeggios with an 80s analog feel.
- Genres: synth-pop, electronic, lo-fi, ambient and R&B.
- Look elsewhere if: you need deep modulation or multiple oscillators per voice; a larger synth such as Diva or Pigments 7 goes further.
- Standout: the modeled BBD chorus paired with voice calibration settings that add analog variation.
What producers say
Reviewers found it a close and easy-to-program Juno emulation, with one noting the filter tracking differs from the hardware.
- Sound On Sound (2021) Gordon Reid compared it to his Juno and found the soft synth "almost always proved to be an adequate replacement," but noted "the filter doesn't track as well on the soft synth."
- MusicTech (2021) praised DCOs that "sound both warm and crunchy, and bright and sparkly" and called voice calibration "a fantastic inclusion."
- MusicRadar / Computer Music (2021) described it as easy to program, with a sound it called "killer."
