I'm not trying to give anyone a hard time or say you're wrong. I'm just giving my perspective on the situation, which is perfectly fine as far as I'm concerned. JS3 does everything I need and I still have not come close to exploiting it's full capabilities.
This is how I feel, too. If Ralph came out and said, "JS3 will be the last version," I'd still use it for years and years to come.
It's interesting that none of the bigger players in the business have really tried to compete with it--they are all still loop-based, which is very limiting.
I'm not a MAC user, but Logic developed "drummer" which is a similar concept.
As for the Jamstix 4 timeline. Yes, many of us signed up for the buy Jamstix 3 and get Jamstix 4 when it comes out promotion.
I don't think any of us expected to be waiting over 2.5 years for that to be fulfilled though.
I too buy jamstix 3 because it is anounced that jamstix 4 come shortly.If rayzoon not want sell more drums maybe they release a tool to create own drum sounds. or they can fix the soundfiles. the js3 kick i find best, when it have not the problems. see video there can hear the problems due to round robin and velocity layer. i think better is, when the round robin with the big attack click can remove and the low level kick sound can hear at 30% velocity only.
How do you think I feel waiting for the next beta build!
I'm still confident that sooner or later something great will pop up (and in the meanwhile I also bought also jamcussion)...
Only, would be great to have a glimpse on what the actual problems are that cause the delay in deploying the new version 4.
It it a tech matter? Or time? Developer's health (of course joking)? Insufficient funding? Need of more people in the developers team?
Things like that... Being aware of what the actual problem are could make me much more confident and tolerant about the release date...

I am afraid it will be later........
Meanwhile I think I will be happy if it is at least this year (maybe for christmas........)

yes, that would make things easier, at least sometimes....
OMG, what an unusual dynamic we have going on over here in this forum. All these years waiting for release of v4. What a dedicated group you all are. I will give you this, you have the patience of Job.
I'm a big fan of Rayzoon and JS V3, but you guys should get a award for hanging in there with this product all these years. You do know the world has continued to spin and drum VSTi innovations over the past years have continued to advance.
But I wish you all luck and like you, I too will continue to pop in here on occasion to marvel at what you guys have going on here.

After all these years, there's still nothing else that does exactly what JS does. Everything else is purely loop-based or focused on artificial EDM beat creation.
I think it's cool that there will be a JS4 (eventually), but it's not like there are massive gaps in functionality of JS3.
