First release
- Version 2.7.1 (05/03/2020)
- Load the Ctrlr.dll (Ctrlr VST/AU) into your DAW
- Load this panel into Ctrlr VST/AU instance.
- Then go to File -> Export -> Export Restricted Instance.
This will build a VST dll or AU (.component) file. - You can now load this panel independently of Ctrlr.
- Or download pre built files from
- In Cubase, Disable †Midi-in **Midi-out ports to the JD990.
- Open JD-990 VST in an instrument track IN=(All Midi Inputs)
- Create Midi track IN=(All Midi Inputs) OUT=(JD-990 Midi-in) (I record midi notes & data to this track).
- In the VST Ctrlr panel connect to the †Midi-in and **Midi-out ~ connected to JD-990 (you disabled them in Cubase ( See step #1)).
- I found the only Midi-thru setting that needs to be checked was
MIDI→Midi Thru→”Plugin-host->Output Device”
(The 5th option down in the fold out menu) - Engage Monitor on Both tracks.
(Thanks to user AW for these instructions)
(This is the JD990’s audio output)
- Insert – Track
- Record Arm
- Monitor Input (right-click record button)
- Track Input:Stereo Input
(Ctrlr VST settings)
- Insert – Virtual Instrument on New Track – Panel
- Routing – MIDI Hardware Output – JD990
- Ctrlr MIDI – MIDI Thru – Deselect “Input Device -> Output Device”
- Ctrlr MIDI – MIDI Thru – Select “Plugin Host -> Output Device”
- Ctrlr MIDI – “Input from host to comparator”
- Ctrlr MIDI – “Output to Plugin Host”
- SYNC with JD990
And make sure in your Preferences, Audio – MIDI Devices, you have it set so that your MIDI Device which connects to the JD990 is enabled for input, output, and control messages (right-click).
Comments or suggestions welcome.
