An instrument plug-in that emulates the analogue 1980s synthesizer Alpha Juno II (rack version MKS-50), combined with modern flexibility and many additional features.

TAL-Pha produces the classic analogue sound of the original and expands on it considerably: the pulse part of the DCO can be detuned, modulated and synced, a resonance boost drives the filter into self-oscillation, and individual tuning for every voice turns the DCO into a VCO. A stereo unison mode with up to seven voices, an arpeggiator with several modes and an FX section with delay, reverb and bell EQ deliver wide, finished sounds. The plug-in reads sysex files and sysex MIDI from the hardware and can also be used as a controller; alongside the original factory banks, more than 380 new presets are included.
