That's cool and all, but what about the RS-101?

What happened to Ultramaster? They had some cool looking stuff that I
never got a chance to use.

 Hi all,
 
 some might remember that two years ago (or so) there was a nice (though at
 that time closed-source, I think) software synth for Linux called Ultramaster
 Juno 6, a faith reproduction of the Roland Juno 6. At some point this project
 disappeared from the websites. When I talked to Marek Peteraj earlier this
 year, he mentioned to me that he attempts to convince the developers to release
 it to the public. And right now, while proofreading Ico's paper
 for the next ICMC I found that it has been open-sourced this year and is
 now available here: http://sf.net/projects/juno6
 
 That's the old source code from 2000, and people have started converting it
 into a VST instrument recently.
 
 I just wonder if anyone has already begun with attempts to e.g. jackify it
 or otherwise fixing it up for e.g. ALSA Midi input etc. Looks like a very
 nice small to medium-sized project..

Just in case anyone's interested, I got bored today so I stripped out all the windows
crap and got this thing to compile and run.. it doesn't actually WORK but hey... at
least it runs.

So if anyone wants to work on it, drop me a line.

(I'll post an update if I get the damned thing actually making noise...)

It's not only very nice but the results are actually damn accurate, i
can testify that since i've got a real juno6 at home.

I'll second that. I owned one for a while and compared it to the UM 
software. Not bad, not bad at all...
