A New Synth Star for the Stage
Versatile, Expandable Sound Set
Carefully crafted for the stage, JUNO-STAGE’s factory patch set covers a wide range of essential sounds, including the flagship 88-key stereo multi-sampled piano taken from the Fantom-X. Every JUNO-STAGE can also be expanded and customized via two Roland SRX Wave Expansion Boards (sold separately).
Instant Access to Sounds
On stage, you need quick and effortless access to your patches. JUNO-STAGE is equipped with FAVORITE buttons for instant access to banks of your most-needed sounds. Best of all, you can also recall your patches via a dual footswitch* connected to a dedicated Patch Select jack, so you never have to take your hands off the keyboard.
Live-Performance Control
Roland optimized JUNO-STAGE’s controllers for live performance, featuring easy-to-grab knobs for instant Master EQ and Reverb control. Located above the pitch bender, two assignable switches can be used for rotary organ effects, portamento on/off, and more.
Backing Tracks Via USB
JUNO-STAGE is equipped with a USB port and Song Player function that enables direct playback and control of backing tracks from a USB key. You can play MP3, .WAV, AIFF and SMF files, and even use the Center Cancel feature to minimize pre-recorded vocals for karaoke-style performance. Creating and editing playlists is simple with the supplied Playlist Editor software for PC; the playlist can be viewed on JUNO-STAGE’s display.
Instant Master MIDI Control
The fast and friendly MIDI Controller mode, complete with dedicated buttons, transforms JUNO-STAGE into a MIDI master keyboard. In this mode, JUNO-STAGE allows program and control changes to be sent with a single touch. MIDI-channel assignments are displayed in a clear, easy-to-understand format.
Stage-Friendly Bonus Features
JUNO-STAGE is packed with great features for live performance, such as an XLR mic input with phantom power (ideal for vocal sing-along performance or driving the built-in vocoder), Click output (for sending an audible click track to bandmates onstage), and an external input for a portable audio player.

| Roland makes a great keyboard! Not like korg who still has bad connectors on the keyboards! Korg has been having this problem for many years now. i had one problem with one roland in my life time. some azzclown drop it and the lcd screen on a gw-7 wouldn't work right, but it still played. This keyboard looks tuff and feel soild but not heavy. | | Features:
| look at vaule. If your a musician who does one shows, need backing tracks, a mic you can control, got a drummer who can't keep time or is gig'in' with a new drummer and you want him to now the tempo, ect, ect, ect. This is for you. It has all the stuff i put in value plus: click output for drummer or other musicians, easy usb hook-up to sonor and other recording programs, mini 1/8 input for i-pod or other audio players. It even comes with a juno-stage and sonar disc!! I know you Korg people are getting mad, but let face it korg is still 3 years behind roland, kurzweil, and yamaha. | | Ease of Use:
| I bought this for 2 girls at are church who are ready to start playing on their own. My daughter who is 14 and the other girl is 12. My daughter in 2 days has figure out everything, but to record and connect to the computer usb. I can do all that already and i don't play. It's mostly 1 button pushing for split and layer. The only people who will have problems are those complex korg user, cause they are so use to push alot of buttons and loop tracks like on the over rated triton. Hey korg triton uses it's 2009, way do all that button pushing when you can upgrade and use a real keyboard you don't have to loop or one where you want lose your main gran piano when you layer it!!! | | Sound:
| The grand piano is better or as good as the kurzweil. And that was coming from a kurzweil user. You can edit you the height of the lid on your grand. You can even edit what kind of speaker cab and twick your electric pianos all of them. I heard alot of keyboard since I buy them, my dad been playing for 50 plus years, and all the churches i've been to, this roland is up their. I heard fender rhondes, korg m1, korg dss1, dx7, classic junos, tritons, phantom, kurzweils, nord, yamahas, i heard a lot of them. This juno-stage is up their! the sound are endless. For you synth guys you can even change the sound pattern from saw,square,etc. The horns sound almost as good as the samples that are used on a kurzweil ( i'm talking orcst. rom ). What shock me is how good the sample basses sounded on this keyboard. And if what to twick them you got real time knobs, but with in 2 buttons your in changing them around. Now the human voices are no take 6 voices, but they sound better good too. I | | Action:
| My dad been playing for over 50 years, he hates plastic keys, because of the action they have on most keyboard. But he said this keyboard has great action. He was really impressed and he loves kurzwiel's. | | Value:
| Let me see you get: phantom processor, 128 mbs of real great sounds, roland phantom grand piano, adjust the heck out of your sounds, 26 drum patterns with 6 changes each, over a 1000 sounds, mic input and voocorder, usb input with playback, you can write and record, midi controller funcations, etc! Best keyboard for the money!! | | Do you own this product?:
| Yes, I bought it for my church, it stays over my house. | | Date submitted:

|      | | Subject: | 1 Wasn't enough! | | Quality:
| A solid well assembled instrumrnt that takes up so little space which has proven itself on-stage, in the studio and usually impossible practice spaces. | | Features:
| A huge library of sounds comes standard, USB Flash can add a large complement, I have filled the expansion slots on one of mine but I use those only when I set up 10 or more voice pre-patches, and I feel the cards are over priced for what they add. | | Ease of Use:
| Get the FS-6 foot pedal to rip thru patches, you will however never keep your hands from or off the control dials or switches there is just an irresistible urge to play around with these from first song to the last note in the set. | | Sound:
| Which one, if you play one and your ear disagrees with what ROLAND has labeled it, you dont have to make many and for that matter significant changes with the counsels controls. | | Action:
| One of the under looked and under advertised areas is the action and the fact that you can if you care to adjust the action for any individual patch easily. | | Value:
| Lets see...A studio workstation that was designed as a stage performance instrument, ROLAND has produced one of the finest stage instruments in a long long time. | | Do you own this product?:

|      | | Subject: | Juno Stage Review | | Quality:
| Upon first opening the Juno Stage it appeared to be well put together, but I have been fooled before. After using it for a little over a month and playing out live it has been nothing, But rock solid. Of course it is a Roland so I didn't have any doubts. | | Features:
| Even though you can't record and sequence on it, I have no problems setting up sequenced songs on the computer and playing them back with the usb jump drive. One nice thing, too is the ability to load break music onto the jump drive and never have to worry about bringing along an MP3 player. But you can plug in a portable music device, too which makes it nice. All of the knobs and buttons are located in a really nice area and switching patches or tweaking patches are a breeze. The ability to change patches with a footswitch is a bonus also. If you wanted you could use a midi controller to change patches, but I don't. Although, I did use my Line6 POD XT Live to change pathches, but it is not really a midi controller. So to speak.
The only reason I give this a 4 for features is no aftertouch and in midi controller mode you can only set-up 10 pre-set patch changes to what you are controlling. For a computer that may be fine, but I run a Rolnad JV1080 Module with it so I'm limited. | | Ease of Use:
| Very easy to use and for once the roland manual actually makes some kind of sense. In no time at all I was tweaking patches and dialing in sounds without going through menu after menu just to forget where I started, or left off. | | Sound:
| I have had some really nice compliments on the 88 key piano sound.Playing in an 80's cover band I mainly bought this for the synths, strings, and pads with a little organ sounds mixed in. I was a little disapointed in the synths right out of the box for 80's pop music because most of the synths seemed geared more towards the more current techno/electronic music, but with a little tweaking I was able to quickly dial in pretty much most of what I needed for a sound. It does have some nice brass sounds and a few good bass sounds, but other then the strings I haven't really dug into the orchestra type sounds. Over all most of the sounds you need can be found, but as with most keys expect to do a little tweaking, which is very easy with this board. Plus, two expansion slots are a bonus for extra patches and waves. | | Action:
| The semi-weighted action and the, what some people call, bigger keys fit me just perfect. I love the way the keybed feels, like an extension of my hands, not something I'm fighting all night. The only thing that bothered me was the pressure (touch opton) in which a person plays on it. I was able to get a good natural piano sound, but the synth type sounds were dull or hardly there unless you really hit a key hard. But if I set it up for a natural synth sound then my piano was bright like I was hammering full on the keys. I fought it and complained about it for a week then took out the manual and played around with it ,and figured out how to set up different touch offsets for each patch. That made my day figuring that out because I seriuosly considered sending it back and I didn't want to because I like evrything else about it. | | Value:
| I think it is worth the money, but I'm sure some will complain about the no after touch and not being able to record sequences with it. That doesn't affect me and I knew that going into it. So if you are looking for that you might want to consider that.
Money well spent! | | Do you own this product?:
