I have a feeling Roland is just being too pedantic. I suspect they modeled a "perfect" 106, meaning they put all the components modeled at ideal values, keeping all drifting and other oddities at a minimal and possibly unrealistic level.
May have been true initially (though I always liked the way it sounds), but they have since added a parameter called Circuit Mod, which is basically a “vintage” knob. Turning it up introduces tuning instability and offsets in the envelopes and filter.
Yeah but that circuit mod thing may be very superficial under the surface. It may be as simple as just modulating the various bits in the background "with an lfo".. just some smoothed noise. That would be the quick and dirty way of doing it.
That's not what it does. I find it really effective. It even managed to breathe new life into their Jupiter-8 emulation, which was a bit too "perfect" and lacked the warmth of the real hardware. With Circuit Mod it's become a really good take on the JP-8.

You should give it another try.
