My attempts to translate the patches from TAL U-NO-LX to Cherry Audio’s DCO-106 proved to be way more problematic than I expected. These emulators may cover similar instruments (Roland Juno-60 and Juno-106, accordingly) but some of their aspects, such as LFO, inverted Envelope for the LP filter, Arpeggio settings, Unisono mode – they all are strikingly different. Filter itself behaves a bit differently too: in U-NO-LX it’s 0-to-1 scale (logarithmic?), in DCO-106 it’s frequencies. So the exact reproduction with mere setting the sliders at the same positions is out of question. I’m trying to make similar sounds, but it takes way more than I’ve bargained for. And I still love U-NO-LX’s sound more. Besides, Cherry Audio synths are more gluttonous about the CPU, which is a bit embarrassing.
I wonder if the approach with maxed-out resonance and noise oscillator will work in 106…
