first, nice progress! Love to see the program evolving

Two things are really annoying:

The GUI here has a big problem, it seems the mouse pointer jumps from hand to pointer symbol with every move you make in the GUI window. This seems to happen together with some focus issues and makes the dropdown menus really slow. It appears to happen only to the main GUI window, not to the popup boxes. Tested it with reaper x64 4.62 and cantabile x64 on windows platform. This must be fixed, please! Can anyone confirm?

The second problem: Why does the Jamstix plugin server stays open if i close all audio applications? In an average sessions this eats up 200-400mb of RAM and remains until you close it through the task manager. That's no good design, the user should be able to end the task. Why? You don't know what's gonna next, maybe some sort of big graphic program. That must be changed, I will never use a program that will create ghost task that run the computer in serious issues!

Side Issue: As I tested the new beta on a few hosts the GUI had big graphic glitches. Test it yourself, run Jamstix in Reaperx64...it opens up plugin server and GUI, OK. Then close reaper, open it up in cantabile for example, voila! The GUI is out of the plugin window! To fix it you must kill the plugin server in taskmanager and reopen jamstix. Odd...

The mouse pointer behaves as expected on my system. Hand symbol when it's over something that can be selected or adjusted and pointer symbol otherwise.

sorry for being late, I have done some troughoutly testing.

The mouse flickering and the resulting menu slowdowns are present on every system i've tested. I have done clean installs with the newest beta on winx86 and win64 with x86-x64 host and x86-x64 plugins but it stays always the same.

Here's a short gif animation (ok due to file size the framrate is lower and the flickering not so present as in realtime but you can see, and the menu issue is also noticable, it jumps to the active menu entry as soon as you stop the mouse)

the plugin server average RAM usage AFTER every host is closed:

Beta RC 1 (Release Candidate) is now out.
Thanks!

Hi Ralph,

RC1 no longer builds multitrack routing when inserted in Reaper when inserting it from a saved template or insert a virtual instrument on a new track menu item. I haven't tried building the routing manually yet but will do so when I get home from work.

EDIT: I tried to route JS via track sends manually and that does not work either. It acts as if JS is only reporting one stereo out to Reaper. Reloaded beta 32 and everything works properly. rzdlog.txt and apslog.txt sent to support@rayzoon.

Oops, we've got the wrong output scheme in the RC1. Sorry about that! This will be fixed in a new RC in a few hours.

No problem Ralph, just wanted to make you aware of the problem, thanks.

The installer has been updated to provide 8 stereo outputs again. If you already have RC1, please re-download and re-install.
