Sounds great, get the europa mod as well to have fantastic midi implementation.
Great sounding filter. I much prefer the J6 to the Andromeda. Although the absolute master is the Jupiter 8. Descrete circuitry at its finest for the Jupiter 8.
The J6 uses CEM based circuits. CEM3360 (I think) for the VCOs and probably Roland's IR filter chip for the VCF section...if I am not mistaken.
If you can get one, do it!

one concrete question about the Envelopes and LFOs
i wanted to know to which parameters (like pitch ammount or frequency) they can be assigned?

both pitch and and frequency. Don't remember if you could assign one lfo to modulate another lfo though...I don't think that was possible on the J6. You get killer cross modulation with the VCOs though.

eh there's something wrong with that pic. The VCOs and mixer parts of the synth have been cut and pasted on the synth. Strange.

no no! take the Jupiter!
extremely trippy synth...
the absolute best for awesome analog pads and sound FX
its just that its always changing, like its alive and singing, so sometimes you wont get two times the same sound, so record its audio when you are on something!
at least that was the case with the one ive been in contact with...

the polysix is way cheaper and comes with a rigid case.
