I've had mine for a year now and I am really starting to tap into building patches on it and I have to say this is probably one of the most fun synths I have ever used.
 
In my opinion the Alpha-Juno/MKS-50 synths are the most underrated and definitely underpriced (semi-)vintage analog synths. Indeed they have a good sound and excellent sound editing features for that price. Only thing they're missing are onboard editing knobs/sliders - but with a PG-300 controller that problem is fixed. Only shame thing is that currently the PG-300 editors are costing almost double the price of the Alpha-Juno...
But still the Alpha-Juno can be programmed without the controller, or with some dedicated (and really inexpensive) software editors.

To many synthesists the Alpha-Juno has only the "Hoover" sound, but they forgot the overall analog sound of the Alpha-Juno is excellent (of course it's not a JP-8 yet, but compare their prices...), and the PWM and chorus is a very handy and versatile tool.

Xabiton, I wish you lots of more fun & cheers !! :cheers:
