I did a lot of work with TAL NoiseMaker on my recent RPM album, and it

was really great to work with. It's very much your traditional

subtractive synth, but it has a good feature set, and a straightforward

UI, and it sounds great.
If you're familiar with programming the JX-8P, then you should feel

right at home; I don't know how close it would sound to the JX-8P in

particular, but it's definitely capable of a lot of those classic synth

sounds. It also has an effects section that includes two different

chorus algorithms, which are at least vaguely Juno-like -- both sound great.
I've been using the native VST version, from the Distrho project, but

there's an LV2 port in progress as well.
Thanks
