Martin Lüders’ freeware VSTi synth PG-8V, a great sounding Roland JX-8P clone, has been updated to v5.5 Beta. The new version brings six new key assignment modes and MIDI learn functionality.
More new features are planned for the final version (really looking forward to that one), so don’t use PG-8V in any serious projects yet, in order to avoid potential compatibility issues later on.
