This is a tricky one. Basically when you open the plugin afresh, it will load the default preset, but the state of UI widgets won't be updated until you actually select something in the preset browser. So if you reselect JV Strings in the browser you should see everything properly.Examigan wrote: Thu Sep 04, 2025 10:31 pm On the default patch - JV Strings, it shows the wrong waveform (ACPiano1), and none of the tones are enabled with the checkbox. It seems to play and sound normal, but I just wanted to mention those issues.

While you are at it, would it please be possible to change something in the spelling: the correct spelling is receiving and not recieving, bothers me each time I see it

That's a Roland typo from the firmware. They can't legally alter the firmware...soundman007 wrote: Fri Sep 05, 2025 1:53 pm While you are at it, would it please be possible to change something in the spelling: the correct spelling is receiving and not recieving, bothers me each time I see it![]()
(And editing the firmware file locally seems to break the emulator - it might be checksummed etc)

No, that is likely going to get its own plugin eventually.

first time i use down arrow, it selects the next patch. the next use of down arrow results in the next bank being selected rather than the next patch.

Yup, known. For the time being it will have to stay that way, it's pretty complicated to deal with because each column is a separate listbox etc.

ok, thanks @EvilDragon. thought maybe the problem was unique to my setup, or perhaps just operator error.

Is there a version of the JV-880 emulation that works on a Mac with MacOS 10.12.6? I know the present version requires 10.13 minimum.

No, I think 10.13 is the minimum.

Sorry to bother everyone, I recently updated the jv880 emulator to the latest build and unfortunately it no longer loads in Maschine (works everywhere else though). Is there a place I can download previous builds? Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thank you
