Support the cause.
Like most other DSI MoPho & Prophet 08 owners I wanted VST integration to control/automate parameters. This is the much pre-mature outcome of that desire. Feel free to Beta test & make suggestions in the comment section. Forgive the horrid graphics, I’ll be giving the gui, fixes, & changes my attention during creative downtime. As always I hope other like minded musicians get some use/fun out of these efforts.
(On that note, any graphic designers out there that would like to take on a project let me know.)

Couldn’t get this to work in ableton live 8.1, win xp sp3, rme fireface 400
Tried:
- having the vst on 1 midi track, with some notes… no luck. as soon as i drop the vst, i lose the “midi to” routings for that track, and since the vst doesn’t seem to have midi preferences … no conversation between daw and mopho.
- having an “external instrument” live device with some notes playing… and setting that track’s “midi from” to another track with the mocontrol vst, will crash live.
anyone had any luck in other sequencers?
i would pay for this, should it reach a useable, consistent state. thanks for starting this.
cheers

where can i send layouts?
Yes some DAWS have limited routing capability. Live is one of them..
Live is not hardware synth friendly. But it does work.
1. Create One audio track & 2 Midi Tracks.
2. Now group the tracks into a folder to keep it clean.
3. Insert MoControl into the audio track. Label this MoControl.
4. Set one of the midi tracks inputs to “MoControl”.
5. Set the output of that MIDI track to the MIDI output port feeding your MoPho.
6. Set that midi track monitoring to “IN”. It will now send the midi messages from “MoControl” to the MoPho
7. Use the 2nd MIDI track for your actual MIDI recording/sequencing for the MoPho. The other 2 tracks are just for automation.
This is when tools like Bidule really shine. Unlimited routing.
First, Nice work
Could not get this to work in Live either. Tried your steps but could not insert MoControl into a AudioTrack as suggested.

Can’t understand why DSI and SoundTower haven’t done this yet, I bought a Mopho because they led us to believe that a plugin was on the way. Anyway, nice to see someone working on it, when/if you make an OSX version I’ll be very interested!
i wouold love to have a a free VST editor for my DSI evolver desktop as well…
could you do that?

Please, make it for Tetra and for Mac!
It would break Access TI monopoly…
As previously mentioned, a VST editor for Tetra would be greatly appreciated.
PLEASE MAKE A MAC VERSION!!!
If it works with MAC and Logic Studio 8 and onwards I’ll be donating the hell out of you!
I’m a graphic designer that would LOVE to work on this project with you! The only catch is, like most graphic designers, I work on a Mac. Port it to OSX/create an AU version and I’ll lend a hand.. and donate! Email me for some examples of my previous GUI design.
Very interested in this, what are you using to write the vst?
