Greetings,

I owned an MKS70 for many years, this plugin sounds pretty close to it. Thanks a lot !

Running the latest release with Bitwig Studio 1.1.7 via the Airwave utility on Fedora 19. Yep, using it with Linux.

Best,

dp

Anyway, good luck to all participants!

Aw bummer that would be fun to hear what you can cook up. BTW, we've had some devs working on their synth during OSC, sometimes doing little bug fixes, etc. Don't worry about it

Was messing around again today comparing patches between my JX-10 and PG8X and realized something -- the JX-10 clicks in the same way on note-off on some patches, it's just the click is muffled, sounds more like a quick low static burst. I've noticed PG8X emulating other flaws of the JX-10, which just goes to show how good an emulation it is. There are many, many patches that are more or less indistinguishable when you A/B them between the plugin and the hardware.

One thing I did was put the DLL into its own folder, then add some presets I downloaded in that same folder. Then put that same folder with all those in it into the Cakewalk VST folder.

Thanks, Examigan, I did the same thing, though I'm using the 64-bit version. I've been working with Sonar's plug-in mangler for years (and even helping other Sonar users with plug-ins and the mangler), and this is the first time I've seen this with a "healthy" .DLL.

martin_l wrote:One source of the problem could be permissions of the folder.
The plugin is trying to write the "pg8x.ini" file, when starting up the first time. I have not yet tried what happens when it fails to write that.

Please, try to make sure that you have write permissions.

Cheers,
Martin

Thanks, Martin. I'll check again, but these are all the same default permissions for a folder for every other VST I've manually put into a folder I created (which means it's basically wide-open). Maybe I'll also try the 32-bit .DLL.

Gee, Dropbox is so pushy, with every click they try to make me sign up for an account. Probably an NSA site to spread their spyware...

Not sure why EvilDragon said "no"... I just downloaded and opened the AU version in the dropbox. it opens and plays fine in Logic Pro X.

Probably because development has been halted on the AU version (as mentioned in the post that EvilDragon referred to.
