JX-8P VST
Just curious if anyone has tried this....

I have a soft spot for the 8P, as that was the only synth I've ever owned.

I do too, or should I say the Roland JX 10 Super, which is basically 2x JX8p
Yes, been using the beta for a while; just grabbed the final 2.0 release a couple of days ago. Nice string sounds.
I'll be giving it a go soon, it's been a good freebie - donationware, for some time, it's just been made 64bit, it lacks presets but a few exist on the web for it, plus, I believe it can load the original jx patches, so that should give you a few more.
why not just try it instead? its free after all. and quite good too. check kvraudio for presets if you want them, i remember seeing a bunch of them in there.
I grabbed it. Can't seem to get the standalone version to respond to my midi controller on Mac.
I'm not a very trusting sort....I wanted to see if anyone had it to make sure I wasn't stepping into a virus trap. Seems safe enough, so I'll probably try it later today (after work.)
I only played with it for a little bit but it sounds and looks nice enough if not great, never owned the hardware but I'd buy this if it was a reasonably priced app.
Appreciate all the feedback folks. I'm sure there's a lot out there that is better, but there's the nostalgia side of it for me.
It's just been updated to version 2 so it may be a little buggy.
The v2.0 release seems more stable than the beta I was previously using. Think it's pretty solid.
No AU by the looks of it.... No worries, I hve the real thing and the iPad controller app.
This is THE emulation!! I've used this for a couple of years now, and it is so good that I'm getting rid of my JX-8P. I don't need it anymore. :-) I can't recommend this app highly enough!! And it's FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got it, but I don't have a DAW that supports VSTs or a midi controller for the stand alone app. I'll have to bring toys to the office tomorrow!
Do you own Gadget or iKaosillator? Ableton Lite licence comes with both of those I think.
I own both, but the JX-8p software is desktop only (I'm on a Mac), and I only have GarageBand and Mainstage installed. Both of those are AU only. I imagine you're talking about midi from my iOS device to my Mac though. I could give that a try....when the boss (my wife) isn't watching!
I'm not sure I understand. By JX-8p software you mean the VST from the link at the top of this thread? There I see a link to what seems to be a Mac version of the VST installer which Ableton could run. But I did test it on a Windows laptop so I'm not 100% sure.
shop.cfa-sound.com/products/super-7-supersaw-vst/ supersaw is another somewhat kinda related synth to jx-8p i suppose. its a very simple one. single oscillator, no waveforms to choose... just give the page a look and see!
but windows only though
Yes @firejan82 , that's what I'm referring to. I don't have Ableton on this machine though.
mac vst works fine in ableton, sounds rather terrific, no glitching, and seems to use a very small amount of cpu considering... amazing something like this can be had for free! thanks for pointing this out!
So why not install the Lite version that comes with Gadget?
I'm at work and need to limit non-work related apps. I probably shouldn't have Mainstage on it even.
hmm, I see
Can I have an iOS-AUi version please?
AU version is in the works, after bug fixes for the new version release, AU-iOS would be nice though.
I did finally get Ableton Lite installed and it works great. Nice trip back in time! Agreed that an iOS version would be great!
