Jamstix 3 RC1 - Now Available

I have a template in Live Lite 8 with J3Beta set up as 8 stereo outputs. When I use the Wizard to "Create Song" my drum kit outputs get reset back to 2 stereo outputs. Would be cool if this could be fixed to just use the current drum kit and settings as is.

Click on the label 'Kit' in the song builder and it will be crossed thru and the current kit will be used as is.

Other than the power knob issue Ralph, everything is butter.

That worked. Thanks!

Just bumping to ask if there will be any improvement of variable hats (CC4) to MIDI Out or subhost.

Thanks.

I just can't replicate the problem you are describing. I've done as suggested in your email and edited a hihat note while checking the CC value reported in BFD. There was never a discrepancy, neither was there in MIDI export. What host are you using and how do you check the reported CC4 value exactly?

There was never a discrepancy, neither was there in MIDI export. What host are you using and how do you check the reported CC4 value exactly?

Here are simple steps to reproduce what I'm saying:

1) Open REAPER 3.4;
2) Create a new empty project;
3) "Insert new virtual instrument on track...";
4) Add JS3 Beta A16 (or any beta I've tried) and select ´no´ (makes no difference);
5) Go to MIXER tab and select ´MIDI Only´;
6) Add a MIDI monitor after JS in the chain, I used the built-in ReaControlMIDI;
7) Add a ´Hihat Closed piece -> Subhost´in the kit tab (lovely to have this option by the way);
8) Now audit hihat articulations and check the MIDI monitor log.

No matter I have all articulations with a key selected or not, I have never received any value to CC4 except 127. In fact, if I set Closed Hat Variations to normal or extreme, it varies the CC4 value (when auditioning closed hat only), but in any other case, I only receive ´channel 1 value 127´. I'm about to try with subhost again, although this is not the way I'll use it. But my MIDI out behaves the same consistently.

Of course it's not the MIDI monitor that is reporting the wrong value, Superior Drummer does not behave as expected in the chain.

Using your steps I see proper CC4 values matching the knob position in JS3 in the REAPER MIDI monitor. Have just sent you a screenshot.

Ralph-

I am at a crossroads right now. I am considering one of the quad core I-Macs and Jamstix is kind of holding me back from making the move. (it is that integral to my songwriting) Do you have any ETA when we may see at least a beta version for osx?

[Ralph @ Rayzoon]

I'm sorry but there is no ETA for JS/OSX beta at this time.
