FREE | Win Mac VST3 AU | 171 MB
JV-880 emulator, as VST/AU plugin.

You'll need ROMs to use this software. During the first run you will be able to open the destination ROM folder. Copy your ROMs there, restart the plugin, and wait for a minute for the first load to happen. Have fun!

NOTE (Windows): If you are having troubles with Windows 10, it's possible you need to install the Visual C++ 2022 Redistributable.


NOTE (MacOS): If you are having troubles with MacOS, it's possible your operating system is blocking the plugin because it's coming from an unregister developer. You can allow this plugin by running this command on a terminal:

sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Users//Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/jv880.component

I can only play the demo's and they sound great. Especially when you consider this is a free plugin and the ROM's are free available. Of course they are quite old meanwhile, but my guess is that you cannot distinguish them from "better" sounds in a mix.

It's a damn pity I cannot get the vst3 nor the standalone working in my Linux MX21 Wine machine

I wonder if this the most recent version. Last night (14 hours ago) the dev posted an update, fixing a bug (problem with displaying the top "LCD").

Yes, this is the latest version

Thanks for the upload. Sounds stunning. Hope to see some UI developments, possibly a rack type interface with a button to switch presets or fully fledged browser. Amazing work so far.

Note: Found fix for Logic crashes on GitHub page.

FYI: For a couple of days there was one and only YT video showing how to get the ROMs. It looks that Roland were quick - today that video has been deleted from YouTube.

So kudos to lardj for posting the whole pack here.

BTW: I've been testing this plugin for a couple of days. It is stable (at least on Windows). There was a problem with GUI on some systems, but it has been fixed.

Also, FYI: the plugin has an "Edit" tab. but it does not work (I guess it is for future development). So everything what we can do now is loading presets and optionally switch off their default effects. No ADSR editing, no filter tweaking etc. (Seems that the plugin doesn't react to MIDI CC either.)

But I still prefer this version to Roland Cloud plugins (they have TERRIBLE UX).

ROM files go in
C:\Users\YourWindowsUserName\AppData\Roaming\JV880\
NOT in a ROM folder.
Let me know if that works for you.

So cool. I wish there was a way to use the bins in the Roland Cloud plugins, but the RC keyboards plugin doesn't seem to recognize these .bins.

Works nicely, only when played 3 or more notes at once, internal clipping occurs on the louder patches, like 'Analog Horn' for example.

In Windows it is:

That's where I put it, and looked on the Internet, people show what's in their folder (what files), so I have the same, and I don't understand what it doesn't like, the files are not protected, what the hell )))))))
just when it gives a message that it doesn't see the ROM, when you click on this message, it opens the explorer to the folder where it should all be, so you can't make a mistake if you want it there. I thought that the files might be some of the wrong ones, but no, judging by the screenshots of others, it's the same.

Are you putting the .bin files directly into
c:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\JV880\
?

You mustn't put them into another folder, i.e. \JV880\ROMS, it won't work.
Also, try the VST3 version first, then you will be able to get the .exe to work. (If that was your problem.)
  Member 13.11.2021 58

I put the bin files in the jv880 folder, I didn't create any rom directories.
And I ran VST3 right away, I don't need the executable file.
  Resident 18.11.2019 253

You need to run the exe first for it to create the right directories then you can force close the exe if it doesn't close or you don't see any error messages and then put the roms (as above) and reopen the exe and you will see the green display and roms... close the exe and then use vst3
  Member 13.11.2021 58

I downloaded the executable file, it gives the same error, I don’t see the ROM file, when I click on the button in the error window it throws me into the directory where it is looking for the ROM file, and everything is there, but for some reason it doesn’t recognize it (

1. Is your user name in Windows "User"...?

2. Actually you have more files than needed - maybe this confuses the plugin...?

This thing really nails early 90s direct-to-vhs movie soundtracks (I mean it in the best way)
