Roland JV-1080 JV1080 Editor freeware by akatuystudio

[akatuystudio]

Hello, I'm akatuystudio.
I made an Editor on Mac and PC for Roland JV-1080.
JV-1080 might be very old for now.
but I think It is very powerful if many params in JV-1080 are real time controlled by MIDI controller.
You can control JV1080 like a virtual analogue synthesiser with this editor.
Please try this if you have a time.

Hi! The Editor is awesome! It opened a new dimension! But... ...the patch capture doesn't work... What do I do wrong?

Thank you for downloading my app!
Please check some points below.
1, Connecting MIDI cables In & Out right? PC>>JV & JV>>PC
2, About receiving sysex. If your JV-1080 has old firmware you can not edit correctly some params. fixed firmware is on JV-1080 after serial number ZG61690.
3, Match Unit # No. on JV-1080 and on Editor.
4, Turn ON Rx.Exc & Tx.Edit at System Mode on JV-1080 manually.
5, Please try factory preset.
Please let me know again if you can't.

Sorry, It doesn't work with JV-880.
The Sys-ex messages are different.
Regards.

First, I wolud like to thank for your help! The connection between PC and JV is good, I checked it with midiOX. The sysex dump (JV -> PC) is also well. The ROM version is 1.02, but i don't think this is the problem... I tried capture the patch parameters (in parameter mode), but the software couldn't read the JV... Thank you in advance!

Do you know what firmware version that corresponds to?

I don't know the s/n of my JV-1080 as the label came off a long time ago.

Wow! Thanks so much for creating this. I've just registered so I could say thank you

Is it possible to control the editor from something like Ableton?

Hi there - downloaded your software and will try it on my Jv1080

I also have a JD 990 arriving - do you know if it will work on this ?

thanks !

Hi akastuystudio,
First, congratulations for having done such an impressive editor for the JV-1080. It’s wonderfully beautiful! I used it on my JV-1080 and it is so much easier to edit with your software than on the device itself with the front panel buttons.
I have two questions:

1) in order to run your software I downloaded the MAX application, it is now at version 7 but I could not find the runtime version only. It seems a full version with 30 days trial. Any idea how to use runtime only and then is a license still necessary to buy ?

2) I like the impressive big panel where every parameter of the common and 4 parts can be edited with dragging the mouse on the value but is it possible to assign any of these parameters to a midi controller instead of the mouse ? I have seen in your video that you use a Korg nanoKontrol 2 controller. I actually have the exact same controller and I was wondering how I can control multiple parameters in your editor with this device.

Thank you so much for reply and kudos again for this superb editor !
Cheers
Pietro

Thank you for using this!
However, I’m making this for only stand alone.
Because I’m alone.

Me too! I also have a JD-990.
But this doesn’t work with JD, because “model ID of sysex” is different.
You might be able to change the patch or perform of JD.
But it’s not perfectly.

After I get completion.
I may or mayn’t try JD’s editor.
Thanks!
