[Preset] Roland System-8 with patch parsing and extra LFO

Instruments
1

First version of a Roland System-8 preset. Version 0

It doesn’t parse any patches yet, and doesn’t take into account the chosen plugins, so there is more work to do.

But it makes the best use of both MIDI CC and the reverse engineered MIDI SysEx messages to control the System-8 Engine with the highest resolution possible.
And it already shows the right control names when change OSC, Filter or LFO variations.
In addition, a second ‘performance’ LFO (E1 LFO) with 6 waveforms, 4 of which are morphable, has been added:

  • Triangle morphs from triangle over trapezium to pulse
  • Square morphs according the PWM
  • Sawtooth and Ramp Down morph from a spike to a clipped saw

I haven’t found yet how to control some parameters such as:

  • Condition
  • Patch Name
  • the Delay and Reverb parameters hidden in the Menu
  • ARP
  • Transpose

so help is welcome.
