Introducing Mercury-6 -a faithful recreation of the iconic Jupiter-6 analog synthesizer, commemorating its 40th anniversary. While often overshadowed by its predecessors, the Jupiter-4 and Jupiter-8, the Jupiter-6 is widely recognized for its unique and intricate sound. Over time, it has earned its place as one of Roland's most sought-after vintage synths due to its distinctive, complex tones. Mercury-6 expertly captures the essence of this classic polyphonic synth, enhancing its exceptional feature set for contemporary digital audio workstation (DAW) production and workflow. 

Key Features: 

• Highly optimized, massive dual-layer voicing architecture with 16 polyphonic voices per layer. Keyboard split or stacked layer modes allow two simultaneously playable layers, with separate per-layer controls for all parameters, including effects
• Two VCOs per voice with combined waveform capabilities: triangle, ramp sawtooth, noise, and square or variable pulse
• Multimode filter with a 24 dB/oct lowpass, 24 dB/oct highpass, or 12 dB/oct bandpass modes
• Accurate reproduction of the original's advanced VCO-2 to VCO-1 FM cross-modulation for searing tones
• Precisely implemented portamento and glissando modes
• Exactingly replicated arpeggio section with MIDI tempo sync, the hidden Down/Up mode of the original, and the addition of a Random mode
• Powerful solo and polyphonic unison modes for fat, stacked sounds
• Two tempo-syncable LFOs with extended retrigger functionality
• Per-layer drift control for oscillators and filter frequencies for authentic analog character
• Single-key chord memory mode
• Over 500 presets, created by a talented team of sound design veterans, easily accessible in a convenient preset browser
• Panel Control for selecting layer controls, including extensive utility functions for duplicating and exchanging synthesis and effects parameters between layers and presets.
