UltraMaster has just released the KR-106, a stunning virtual instrument that pays homage to the legendary Roland Juno-106, and it’s available for absolutely nothing.
This isn’t just another generic synth; it’s a fully open-source project designed for producers who crave that authentic, unstable analog warmth without the $3,000 vintage price tag.
The KR-106 captures the specific “magic” of the original hardware—that lush, chorus-drenched sound that defined the 80s and continues to dominate modern lo-fi and synthwave. But because it’s open-source, the community is already talking about how “tweakable” and efficient the code is.
Let me know what you think of this vst.
