I just peeked at the schematics.  The connections to the Mc5534A in the Juno
looks kind of similar to those on a Curtis chip...timing and CV inputs, some
capicitors for timing, digital signals for waveform selection, and wave &
sub octave outputs.

All in a 16 pin (? maybe more/less) SIP package, and marked as custom in the
parts list.

It doesn't appear to be our ol' opamp buddy.

I think they're available form Roland.
