Cool Holographic scopes?
► The scopes I use aren't real - I use MOscilloscope and MAnalyzer by a company called Melda - they’re free with some limitations in the MFreeFXBundle.

Shooting laser beam notes?

► They're not real either, sorry! I use Synthesia, and sometimes a free tool called MIDI visualizer

JUNO-D storage and polyphony specs:
► Roland doesn't state polyphony officially because it varies based on what's going on. I tested around 90 voices if you use a single partial and single sine wave, and then got dozens of voices when testing more complex sounds (60+ when using an organ preset). Roland says it may go up to 256 voices depending on how you use it.
► Streaming from USB drive: Roland says there are no limits on song length
► User samples in ram: 3 minutes (64MB)
► There's no way to create MSAMP (multisamples) on JUNO-D itself, but you can import them, for example, if they were made on a FANTOM
► You can load up to 2 EXZ expansions assuming you don't use up the sample memory on user samples.
