Gracie stands proudly atop a vintage Roland Jupiter 6. As the quality manager for Synthetic Dreamscapes, she always has access to some of the best instruments (including a few of ours that we have sent in for repair).

The Jupiter 6 was a somewhat scaled-down version of Roland’s flagship Jupiter 8 polyphonic analog synthesizer. But it did have a sound of its own, perhaps a little edgier, and it sported one of the earliest MIDI implementations. We at CatSynth enjoy its sound indirectly through Cherry Audio’s Mercury 6 virtual instrument.
