Jamstix 5 on the horizon?

Hi Rayzoon,

It looks like Jamstix 4.5 beta was the last update we've seen in a while concerning Jamstix development. Are there plans for a Jamstix 5 on the horizon? I hope development continues as there is nothing really like it!

Thank you.

Current Beta was released in October 2021. Almost a year later and no official release yet.

Would be very disappointing if Jamstix has been abandoned by the developer.

10 months since Ralph last posted on the forum as well.

No criticism from me Ã¢â‚¬â€ I have no idea what might be going on in his life and I've more than got my money's worth from Jamstix 4 Ã¢â‚¬â€ but I would really appreciate an update simply because I like the software, and I'm keen to see it go from strength to strength. I'll happily buy any new versions that get released!

Agree it would be good to know whatÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s happening.
No pressure just love this software

Same! Tough times to be a small developer. I own everything Rayzoon and it all works flawlessly in Studio One 6, Windows 10. Still hoping Ralph would have released a minipak or 3. An outsider's only view looks like the effort to support Apple's OS release sched has been disproportionally larger (maybe than expected)? Wish nothing but the best and hope he is doing well. (Peace Apple users - just idle speculation from another (longtime) customer)

This is the really concerning fact. Ralph used to be very active here. Has anyone noticed any activity or changes in products or the web site in 2022?

It's beginning to look like Jamstix has been abandoned, hopefully not because of any misfortune regarding Ralph. It would be good to know.

Does the other moderator on these forums, Azimuth, have any information to share?

Has anyone had any response from support this year?

Personally, I'd like Ralph to sell the technology to someone else who had the resources to develop it further.

I doubt this is the cause as there have been no updates or information on the Mac version for several years now. The existing version is still only a beta and does not support the current release of MacOs nor the previous three versions!

No, I'm standing on the sidelines just like everyone else.

I asked for my customer key and I got an answer on September 18th. It came from Rayzoon support. So I hope Ralph is doing well.
