ROLAND FANTOM X Editor by elkbeat

Roland
This is a Platinum layout for MDP2. Platinum layouts represent thousands of hours of work and a great eye for aesthetics. If you inspect this layout in Design Mode, you'll see just how deep it goes. This layout comes from the need to control the Fantom XR, since the knobs on the device are nearly unworkable. This layout isn't just an amazing piece of software: it's also an uplifting human story about how to turn a problem -- controlling this gear -- into an amazing work of art. Huge congratulations to Elkbeat on this layout.

Be sure to check out the notes, and enjoy!

Roland Aira TB-3 Bassline by thedood

1871 downloads
Roland
The Dood knocks it out of the park with this amazing Platinum controller for the Roland Aira TB-3 Bassline. As the author tells is: "Roland basically hid most of the synth in System Exclusive. It really is a full blown mono synth, with Ringmod LFO and twin Effects! Why they didn't release an iPad controller/app etc. for it I have no idea as this thing is utterly WASTED without the extra Sysex control." This is the true meaning of DIY and we're so excited that MDP2 allowed the Dood to unlock the next level on this Roland box.

Roland JX-3P, JX-8P, MKS-30, MKS-50 by rainer

2353 downloads
Roland
An historical first, Rainer's first layout controls many of the most important 80s synths by Roland: JX-3P with Organix mod, JX-3P with KiwiTechnics upgrade, MKS-30 with Johannes Hausensteiner mod, JX-8P, Juno 106, Roland Alpha Juno 1 & 2 + MKS-50, Roland MKS-70 A + B, and the Roland MKS-70 Patch. This layout inspired the entire Community to get to work. It's not just a classic: it's the first Platinum Layout ever, so it's not just a work of art. It's a trail-blazing work of art which inspired so many others. Thanks to Rainer for inventing this activity!

Enjoy!

A MIDI Controller for the Roland VG-99 V-Guitar System by erikbojerik

2326 downloads
Roland
When Paul Hanson took the stage to introduce the VG-99 V-Guitar System at the Winter NAMM show 2007, the audience was amazed. That amazement continues even now. For many guitarists, the VG-99 is the guitar system that showed how Roland's modeling technology could be musically relevant and even mind-blowing.

But this 8″ by 16″ box with a small LCD screen and a bunch of knobs and buttons is not ideal for realtime control. So, when Erik Hauri became a MIDI Designer Pro user in October 2012, his first project was to make a layout for the VG99. The MIDI controller he created is very pleasing to look at, but even more pleasurable to use. Great choice of color palette, spacing, fonts, and extensive use of XY pads are among the smart decisions that make this MIDI controller work.

We're very lucky to have Erik bring us this welcome addition to MIDI Designer's presence in the world of guitar.

Roland D50 (Updated 8 feb 2015: v1.1) by bleunoir83

1730 downloads
Roland
As the author tells it:

I bought MidiDesigner specifically to make a layout for my Roland D50, because I was in love with its sound but appalled at its controls, and a PG1000 module costs twice as much as the synth itself... So here it is!

- Controls all 313 parameters editable by Sysex, with the exception of patch names
- Parameters with names instead of numbers as values (for example, the PCM waves and bias settings) all have corresponding named ticks.
- I have split controls for the TVA and TVF into basic and advanced controls - mainly because i couldn't fit all of them on one page.
- A Supercontrol page is added controlling parameters on all 4 partials at once.

Amazing, great control of the D50. Nice work, enjoy!
