First, every 8th (or was it 12th?) keys was stopping to produce sound (but they still sended MIDI signals), so I was able to use it as a MIDI controller (one of the best keyboards I ever used) and use another MIDI controller for triggering the jx-sounds. Then I could not do program changes, and then it stopped to make sounds - all this within two weeks. It does exist some Juno SW synths for MS Windows and Mac, but I won't use it. I'm usually pragmatic and do use both Mac and Windows for work (Linux is still main OS there also), but here, I run native Linux on everything and don't want to run another OS in my studio. > Better?

Well, I think I might try to get a new one again but also consider to see if I can make amSynt or even take my time to learn Yoshimi and see if it can do the job. Maybe a bright soul in this group is able to make a modelled JX or Juno with convolution?
