To make the VT-12 more versatile, a provision for phantom powering condenser microphones is included. But since many engineers are concerned about possible damage to ribbon mics if phantom power is accidentally applied, the VT-12 has a rear panel switch that disables all possibility of applying phantom power.

The VST-AU MKS-80 Editor is a real-time MIDI synth editor that allows you full control of every parameter of the sound on the Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter synthesizer. You can manage, view and edit all your patches on the computer itself without the hassle of manual dumps. All parameters are fully automatable and you can even use your favorite VST or AU host, or use it stand-alone, giving you the ability to visually program the MKS-80 to your music via the host sequencer. You may also use the standalone application if you do not need to work inside the host or if your host is not supported.

This version added support for key signal filtering which is a very useful function that allows you to perform de-essing and use various compressor "voicings". Feedback compression mode can be also enabled now. This mode sounds a little bit "punchier" than the default "feed-forward" mode. The "feedback" mode in many cases tends to produce a more controlled, less fluctuating sound due to its inherent "prognostic" behavior.
