juno 6

[pendrive]

I own roland juno 6, I wouldn't mind doing a juno 60 memory upgrade or adding midi if anyone does anyone know how to do this using a picaxe.
I have an 18x, 40x1and 08m, Ive done a google search for midi and noticed a site (ardinio) I think that shows a lot of circuits using a ATMEGA168 which would be useful if they had a picaxe controlling it.

Does anyone know of any picaxe midi circuits doing the same?

Thank...............pendrive

Hi, I think just the price and look of this kenton upgrade indicates that adding midi to Juno6 isn't simple ...

Anything other than the most basic Midi handling is really beyond the picaxe IMHO. Although the picaxe might be great for doing other management tasks in a midi system.

(you could always think about moving on from a vintage synth and get a little Juno D like I just have Ok ok, no comparison to your analog sounds )
