Roland to Release Analog Jupiter 12

Finally! Finally! Finally! Roland is finally giving the synth community what they have been wanting for years. Roland has dropped the bomb that they will be selling a real analog, updated version of the venerable Jupiter 8. It will have twelve voices, built-in effects, and the panel is to die for. This thing looks awesome. It will sell for $3499 and hit the market later this year. Check this out:

I knew this was an April Fool's gag, but I at least wanted to enjoy the entertainment value of seeing a Photoshopped rendering of the synth...

Behringer versions of vintage synths are like NA beer.
With the added bouquet of sweatshop labor.
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with all thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave
