 J. F. Sebastian, named after a former [genetic designer](https://bladerunner.fandom.com/wiki/J.F._Sebastian) of the [Tyrell Corporation](https://bladerunner.fandom.com/wiki/Tyrell_Corporation), provides new ways to control and explore the sonic possibilities of the [Deckard's Dream](https://www.deckardsdream.com) synthesiser (DDRM). It works both as a **stand-alone app** and as an **audio plug-in**.
 
-The DDRM is an awesome synthetizer designed by [Black Corporation](http://black-corporation.com) in Japan and inpired by the all mighty [Yamaha CS80](https://reverbmachine.com/blog/exploring-the-yamaha-cs-80). If you're reading this... you most probably know all about it :)

 J.F. Sebastian interfaces with the DDRM and turns its sliders into audio plugin parameters that can be *modulated and automated* from your DAW. With J.F. Sebastian you can import DDRM bank files, edit patches and export them. When you import a bank file, a *Timbre Space* will be created which will allow you to navigate all the presets in a colorful space and create new ones. J.F. Sebastian also includes a *CS80-like tone selector* that allows you to use the original presetting system of the CS80 in the DDRM.

 J.F. Sebastian can run as a **stand-alone application** or as an **audio plugin** inside your DAW. When running as an audio plugin it works as an **audio effect** but effectively acts as a *bypass effect* for all the audio received in the input (i.e. it passes the input audio to the output and leaves it unaffected). The typical setup is to create a *MIDI/external instrument* track in your DAW which routes MIDI to the DDRM and receives the audio signal from DDRM. In that track J.F. Sebastian can be placed as an effect.
 
-The good side of loading J.F. Sebastian as a plugin is that it allows the DAW to control DDRM's parameters, enabling **parameter automtation** and any other sort of **modulation capabilities** offered by the DAW.

You'll also see how the selected point in the Timbre Space moves at each preset change. This indicates the point in the Timbre Space that corresponds to the selected preset (more info in [Section 2.4](#24-the-timbre-space)).

 If MIDI output is properly configured, moving the sliders in J.F. Sebastian will control the corresponding sliders in the DDRM hardware unit. Similarly, if MIDI input is properly configured, moving the sliders in the hardware unit will cause the sliders in J.F. Sebastian interface to move.
 
 All sliders and buttons are exposed as **audio parameters** to the DAW, meaning that their movement can be **recorded**, **automated** and **modulated** if the DAW has such capabilities.
 
 Double-clicking the sliders will set them to the center position.

 What follows is a list of known J.F. Sebastian bugs and limitations of the software. Please, for **bug reports** and **feature requests** visit [https://github.com/ritaandaurora/ddrm-jfsebastian/issues](https://github.com/ritaandaurora/ddrm-jfsebastian/issues).
 
- * J.F. Sebastian uses MIDI to communicate with DDRM and update its parameter values. However, as of formwarte version 1.3.0, **not all parameters in DDRM are currently controllable via MIDI**. All the sliders and buttons in the front panel can be controlled via MIDI, but not other *hidden* parameters like envolpe ranges, etc. What this means in practice is that loading presets from J.F. Sebastian **might not produce the exact same results** than loading them from the bank files copied in DDRM because the hidden controls can't be updated. Hopefully future updates of DDRM firmware will allow full MIDI control so that J.F. Sebastian (and other tools) can be updated accordingly.

- * **DDRM firmware does not implement any method for dumping baank or slider values over MIDI**. Therefore, J.F.

- * Communication with DDRM is l**imited to the speed at which MIDI messages can be transmitted**. Automation and modulation of parameters is therefore subject to that. We did some testing and the message trhoughput seems to be quite good, specially using MIDI over USB, but still that could be a limitation for vey fast modulations.

- * DDRM is very sensitive to MIDI in-out loops and MIDI control might not work properly if the messages that DDRM sends are put back into its input. J.F. Sebastian avoid creating such loops when both MIDI input and MIDI output are configured, but it can easily happen (it indeed happened to me!) that a feedback loop is created inadvertedly in the DAW. If you observe strange behaviour in J.F. Sebastian controlling DDRM (specially if some buttons in the tone selector section do not seem to work), **make sure you have not accidentally created a MIDI feedback loop**.

  * When using J.F. Sebastian in stand-alone mode, it could happen that a **warning is displayed about potential audio feedback loops**. This is can be solved by clicking on the `Settings...` button that will appear in the warning and unticking the *Mute audio input* checkbox. J.F. Sebastian will remember this choice so the warning is not displayed again. This is a bug that will be addressed in future updates of J.F. Sebastian as J.F. Sebastian uses no audio and the warning should never appear.

+			I've always been a big fan of the CS80 sound. When I learned about the Deckard's Dream project - a CS80-inspired synth in rack 
+			format that would be offered as a DIY kit - I did not hesitate much. I had practically never soldered a single resistor before,
+			but I jumped in and now I have a working Deckard's Dream synthesizer that I'm enjoying a lot.

+			I'm a music technology researcher and software developer, and I started to have many ideas about how to control
+			the Deckard's Dream with the computer and help me explore its sonic possibilities. The result of all this is J.F. Sebastian. The first prototype, 
+			written Javascript, I started in June 2018.
