<t>One thing I have trouble with is creating drums for the beginning of a song where you want an almost drum solo/build up type sound (sorry not very good explaining). For instance a lot of fusion type songs have these intense drum build ups at the beginning that sort of complement what the guitar ...

Thanks Ralph.

It seems that when I switch to Bonxo Pak standard (and possibly other kits) the downmix swithc gets checked, even though it wasn't before.

A bit more playing around and it seems fine if I load JS and use standard rock kit but if I load something else like BonzoPak standard kit then it all goes wrong, even if I swap back to rock standard kit.

<t>I have started to try using multiple audio outputs to get a better mix. I am using JS in Sonar Home 7. When I insert JS I get 8 audio tracks, I selected option 8 on the 'select output routing' drop-down but when I try all the different drums I find kick/snare/toms all go through tracks 1 and 8 ...

<t>Hi <br/>
<br/>
Just read your message and like to say I found exactly the same problem. I found if I opened Sonar and the first project loaded contained Jamstix then 'crash' no go. I found if I open any other project (with Jamstix in it), then close it, then open a project with JS in then all is ...

<t>This is a problem since I started using Jamstix, nearly every drum kit I load except 'Rock - standard' has missing drums, any where from 1 to 'a lot'. The exception is the bonzo add-on which is fine. I have installed jamstix twice once on my old computer and once on my new computer, reloaded the ...

Not sure if this helps but I have to go into views/piano roll and put at least one note at some bar in the future e.g bar 40 depending on how far you want to go. Press play and JamStix should play up to the point you inserted the note.

Dont really know what else to try. Thing is though I still do not know what the vst adapter is. Does it come with Sonar or is a seperate product you download or buy? There is no reference to it in any Sonar documentation or books I have seen.

How do you use it with Sonar?

I can honestly say that I have been using JS2 with no VST adapter in Sonar 6 Home for months now and it works absolutely fine. Have you tried just using the soft synths menu item on the Insert menu? Thats all I do and loads and works straight away.

OK guys - got it sussed.
