The Juno-X’s sonic profile is a greatest hits of Roland’s most robust offerings. Tap into the Juno-60’s rich, DCO-driven sounds, and its rock-solid arpeggiator. Or, channel the Juno-106’s classically cool polyphonic portmanteau. Explore everything from acoustic instruments and vintage synths to a variety of percussive and world sounds, thanks to the 900 onboard PCM-based presets of the XV-5080. Conversely, you can hone the atmospheric RD series of stage pianos to accommodate any number of moods. For the extra-motivated aural adventurer, the Juno-X’s built-in mic input imbues you with the full power of the Vocoder Model, allowing you to fuse any X synth to create evocative, character-filled soundscapes spanning art shows to robot rock. Roland’s Model Expansions let you drive the ZEN-core engine into even more terrain, accessing sounds of the Jupiter-8, JD-800, SH-101, and other classics, alongside sound-design tools like the Vocal Designer, sample packs, and more.

In terms of sonic palette the vintage Juno may be...the Juno X has the X, 60, 106, XV5080 and Piano engines built in, with the ability to add the Jupiter-8, SH-101, JX-8P and JD-800 expansions (free if you're subscribed to Roland Cloud) plus the...
I am looking for a patch that would emulate the Lead Synth sound on "Head over Heels" by Tears for Fears. I have a JP-8, Juno X and Jupiter Xm so if I can find one for the latter 2 then I could probably reverse engineer it for the JP8. TIA John
