Just had a play with this. Very nice! The real juno lets you turn on both choruses at the same time though :)

(Also I cant seem to get the release to work on the envelope.)

If anyone is interested in an accurate emulation of this classic synth, heres one that sounds largely identical to the real thing and is very reasonably priced: http://kunz.corrupt.ch/products/tal-u-no-lx

In Firefox the envelope release is broken, and overall performance seems worse compared to Chrome, for reasons I haven't really bothered to investigate deeply. It mostly works in Safari, but Safari does something different with garbage collection of audio nodes, so the note-stealing behavior doesn't work right.

Basically, use Chrome for now if you want it to play nice. WebMIDI is only supported in Chrome anyhow.

Also, 100% agreed on TAL U-NO-LX, it's one of my favorite plug-ins and the price is great!

Yeah we're fixing this as we speak (I work on Web Audio API at Mozilla), it should work fine in Nightly in a couple weeks, worst case.

Ha, thank you Paul! Glad to know it's probably not my fault ;)

On a real Juno, half of the voice cards would be dead. :)
