ReDominator1x, from AudioRealism, is an emulation, controller and sysex librarian for the Alpha Juno, the polyphonic DCO synth from 1986 best known for the Hoover sound that powered early-90s rave and techno. The plug-in recreates the single-oscillator voice with its sub-oscillator, 14 waveforms and unusual eight-parameter envelope, then adds modern extras the hardware never had. On Mac it works as a plug-in in your DAW, and it can also exchange patches with a real Alpha Juno over sysex.

Key Features

  • Accurate Alpha Juno 1/2 emulation, including the famous Hoover patch
  • 14 low-aliasing waveforms, sub-oscillator and a 24dB/octave low-pass filter
  • Unique eight-parameter envelope for more complex shapes than a standard ADSR
  • Over 200 bundled patches, many converted from a real JU-2 by sysex
  • Chord Memory function and sysex librarian duties for hardware owners

How to Download

  1. Make sure your DAW supports AU or VST plug-ins on macOS.
  2. Download the installer from the developer: Download from the official site
  3. Install ReDominator1x, load it on an instrument track, and start from the Hoover and factory patches.

System Requirements

ReDominator1x needs a recent version of macOS and a 64-bit plug-in host, and runs on both Intel and Apple silicon Macs. Controlling real Alpha Juno hardware also requires a MIDI interface.

FAQs

What is the Hoover sound?

It is the aggressive, sweeping PWM patch made famous by the Alpha Juno in early-90s rave records. ReDominator recreates it, along with the rest of the synth's character.

Can I load patches from my real Alpha Juno?

Yes. ReDominator doubles as a sysex librarian and converter, so patches from a JU-1 or JU-2 can be brought into the plug-in.
