SO far I try a combination of the following, after I open a saved livelooped song.
. Click go to first bar (not sure why, but this is not always at the start, no matter if song is saved there.)
. Open large display

Seems to work "most" of the time, but not 100%.

Would it be possible to automatically rest a song to the first bar, including display, when you open it?

UPDATE: It seems if I rewind every time I load a song *so far* it seems to work ok. If this could be done automatically would be great.

Any update on how things are going ray?
Is everything ok?

All OK here aside from a F3 Tornado going by REALLY close on Saturday:)

So, if you hit the 'Rewind' button (go to bar 1) it works okay?

I saw some footage of recent tornado in mississippi near a friends panents housein Jacskon...wild stuff http://youtu.be/jrkzBpeybkc

I can sympathise after a 1000 aftershocks post 3/11 and a multi nuke meldown still making us watch the rad counter and winds...fortunately we didn't get tsunami's in Tokyo...yet...

>>So, if you hit the 'Rewind' button (go to bar 1) it works okay?
So far, if I am diligent it seems to work. It would be good if you could make it when you save a song it automatically resets it to bar 1, or on loading resets automatically to bar 1. I've noticed that the bar settings vary when loading songs (ie: bar number played too), but when you hit play (without rewind for example), it starts from bar 1. This used to work ok, but from a few versions ago the dropouts in the first pattern run through started to happen.

Does that make sense?

This beta is very stable in the past months I have been using it.
I have noticed two things. I am not sure if it has been in previous versions or not.

First. As discussed in a thread in the support forum, on occasion, some "hidden" notes will be getting played that do not show up in the groove, accent, or fill, bar editors. Tricky to get rid of them. Can't give much detail on it though. I know it is not much help.

Second. Occasionally, the GUI gets confused about whether it is in JS or JC mode. For example, add some drums to a part, then switch to JC and edit the JC part. Close the GUI while still in JC mode. When I open it back up, the JC is still lit up blue but the editor is showing me the drums mode. I can't remember what happens if I try to edit from here but it is easily fixed by clicking on the JS mode to "resyncronize" the editor. Then if I want JC mode click back on JC mode and all is fine.
Sincerely,
J.L.

Yes, I've seen both these happen from time to time too.

Thank you!
After a little testing it seems to run very stable 8)
can you give a little changelog?
when will there be a Win64VST available?

So how do I install this latest beta? I copy & paste the .dll (which is named differently this time, I might add??) into my Jamstix folder on C: drive and also into my VST folder in C:/Program Files - like I always do. When I start Reaper it just hangs on loading Jamstix? I tried changing the .dll to just "Jamstix3.dll" but still hangs. How do I make this work? I've never had a problem before copying & pasting the beta .dll into both those folders.

While I'm at it, why the need to copy the .dll into both folders?? It's annoying.

Hi majawe_0

Copy the .dll into your Jamstix 3 folder, delete the old Jamstix3.dll manually and then clear your plug in cache and rescan in Reaper. I don't know why you have to copy it to two different folders, all you have to do is add your C:\Jamstix3 folder to your vst plug in path in Reaper.

Oops, sorry about the DLL name! I have just updated the ZIP so the DLL is named correctly. If you have already downloaded it, just rename the beta DLL to jamstix3.dll
