Jazz addons

Post by Jazzimprov »

I was looking at the Jazz part of the new addons.

Can someone explain how this is different than the current Jazz styles offeredin JS 3

i.e different rhythms?
different feels

How can you manipulate this addon as opposed to the regular JS 3?

Thanks

Since no one jumped in here, let me expand on it a bit.

AIPak gives you 'Peter', who has jazz snare accents that can replace the groove snare of any style and also has special jazzy fill behavior.

The 'Custom Jazz' gives you more fine control than any other jazz style in JS3. You can select ride hand patterns (Standard, 2-Bar, Elvin, Freeform), kick patterns (FotF, Downbeat, Elvin), add a snare shuffle feel and more.

The 'Big Band' style gives you the big shuffle with the fat snare and tom accents.

All in all, most of this things can not be done in JS3 without AIPak.
