Jan 2011: State of the \'Stix?

Hi, Ralph, and happy new year!

Can you give us a State of the Stix overview of what to expect over the next few months? You have a lot of things cookin', and I'm sure they'll all be cool...

Personally, I'm looking forward to a Mac OS X version, since I've not had time to try to get the current release working with the Mac I've switched to. I'd be thrilled with just MIDI output, since I usually use Toontrack stuff for drum sounds, and I wouldn't mind shelling out a pile of money for it -- I miss my drummer.

Next thing is AIPak in just a few weeks. After that comes Jamstix OSX some time this year. We also have another sound expansion planned for 2011.

Beyond that is a native 64-bit version of Jamstix and after that we will be able to pick up the JamBassist project.

Sounds all good to me. Happy New Year!

So is native 64 bit Jamstix about a year away then?

We have no release dates at this time but will keep you updated as things progress.

Will users of Jamstix 3 get the mac version for free? Just wondering because I'm thinking of upgrading but I don't want to pay the upgrade then pay again for the mac version.

Yes, the OSX version will be free for all JS3 owners.

Woot!!!

So I can go ahead and buy Jamcussion and it will transfer since I'm a Jamstix 3 owner? Along with my existing Bonzo and Metal packs?

I should never have doubted....

Shep

How far developed is JamBassist?

Yeah, I'm quite interested in JamBassist as well.

If it's half as smart as the Jamstix... oh, man!
