Thanks for the speedy reply. Will send the logs when I’m next at my DAW PC.

That's weird. I have set Cakewalk back to load without admin rights so that I can generate an error log for you and now Jamstix works fine :o

So I will plough on with the demo for now. If I get the same issue shall I just
email the logs to support?

Loving the software so far by the way. Certainly a quick way to generate a realistic drum track and I haven't even touched the surface yet.

Thanks Ralph.

I am seriously considering the Studio version.

One thing I would like to check as I find most other drum VSTis lacking is with odd meters or anything other than 4/4. Especially 6/8 and 3/4?

Just want to mention, as you experiment with odd time signatures and time signature changes, a couple of points that might save you some time and frustration...
1. Make sure "allow time signature changes" is check in JS options.
2. Make sure there is a corresponding time signature change in the host at the correct point where the T/S changes in Jamstix.
3. Make sure the time signature in each part of the song in Jamstix, matches the signature in the host.

Have fun!

Zinc_T,

In case you were not aware of it Jamstix 4 can handle any time sigs up to 9/4 or 18/8 and handles odd meters very well. It's one of my favorite things to just sit around and kill time with. As jas_lan pointed out just make sure that you've got time sig markers at the corresponding locations in your project.

So I purchased Odd Time and Neo60 earlier but Jamstix Manager is only giving me the option to buy them again. Can someone remind me how I actually install a purchase?

Thanks
