Virtual MPG-80 editor / programmer - Roland MKS-80 - LOGIC v4 - X

VIRTUAL MPG-80 PROGRAMMER FOR ROLAND MKS-80

This software is a Virtual MPG-80 synthesizer programmer for use with the ROLAND MKS-80 synthesizer.    It emulates the MPG-80 hardware editor in a software environment within the APPLE LOGIC audio/sequencer program (formerly Emagic Logic).     To use this software you MUST have a valid copy of LOGIC on your computer (see below) as well as a MIDI interface which connects your computer via MIDI cable to your hardware synthesizer.

This software CANNOT be used as a stand alone application under any circumstances.     It will NOT run in Ableton, Reason, VST or any other host - it is not a plug-in but two importable layers of the Logic environment.

Upon purchase, you will ultimately receive a ZIP archive of the editor you purchased for Logic.     UNZIP this archive and you will have a LOGIC song document you can now open in the Logic program (Mac v8-9 and vX are supplied - please request special version if needed).      Once open, you will see the editor on your screen and you can then discover the pleasures of a Virtual MPG-80 for your Roland synthesizer!

NOW FULLY LOGIC X COMPATIBLE!       Logic X upgrades have been ported to earlier versions.    Previous buyers may contact me here for free upgrade to any version v4 - 9.      New features include FULL RESET and HYPERDRAW MIDI CC compatibility.

OVERVIEW:

This editor is physically laid out exactly like a real MPG-80 (Roland's hardware programmer).    If you're familiar with the original MPG-80 then you should feel right at home here.     I've tried to include every parameter I could to control the MKS-80 including a few helpful things not found on the original MPG-80.

Both upper and lower tones are accessible simultaneously via two different but identical editor windows open at one time if you have the screen real estate to accommodate it.  It also sends AUTOTUNE and has a few other niceties like a visual split point selector keyboard, arpeggiator, and octave selectors.

All real time moves are recordable by the Logic sequencer for repeatable real time changes on playback - or you can automate using HYPERDRAW.      You may also remotely control these SYSEX faders and buttons via a hardware control surface if you take the time to tailor the controls to suit your individual hardware.     This is not difficult to do and needs only be done once and then saved for future sessions.

The editor resides in two layers of the LOGIC environment hierarchy - and is importable to your personal autoload song (notes on how to do so are included).

Detailed documents are included with your purchase and cover all aspects of usage - both remedial and advanced.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

This editor is current but is still compatible with many earlier versions of Logic starting with Emagic MAC Version 4.x.     It is compatible with ALL versions of Logic through vX.   (Logic X v10.5 has a visual bug concerning button display - corrected in v10.6)  

It is also compatible with Logic Express v7 - 9.     If you have a version 8 Logic you must use v 8.01 or higher which fixes a SYSEX bug that renders v8.0 inoperable.

This editor is also compatible with the v4 - v6 PC versions of Logic (please specify upon purchase).     In all v5's - it is compatible down to Logic SILVER.     NOT compatible with Micro-Logic or any of the other earlier neutered Emagic bundled versions.

This editor is designed to fit a screen resolution of 1024 X 768 or larger but will also work on smaller screens.
