Jamstix & REAPER

However, into each life a little rain must fall.

Ralph, sometimes Jamstix forgets its settings in Reaper. I can open up a project and the kit, style and drummer have disappeared.

Drummers, you see - you can never rely on 'em...

I've tried to figure that one out but so far I don't know why. Since it only happens in REAPER, it must be something host-specific. Until we figure it out, I recommend keeping revisions via the disk icon in JS2 so you can reload quickly if this happens.

Oh, that's a pity. I may start a thread in Reaper's "Compatibility" forum and get Justin on the case.

I'm afraid I don't understand your "keep revisions via the disk icon on JS2" advice, Ralph. Pretend you're talking to a child.

We'll have a Beta 2.5.1 soon which may fix this problem. Until then, use the disk icon in the middle of JS2 to save copies of your project. It also does that automatically based on the time set in the 'Options'.

ah. I though the disk icon was temporary saves for an "undo like" function (and a limited amount of saves). I've been using the Save Song and that seems to work for now. thanks!

Hi Shemp.Nice to see you here

JS only loses the settings for me in Reaper if I try and save when it's running.If it's stopped it takes longer to save but saves everything.

In Reaper's preferences make sure in the VST section you have,
Save Full Plug-in state enabled and the Bank save option underneath as well

I downloaded the program and installed it but it wont show up when I click the fx button on the track. There is no jamstix under the VSTi listing. any ideas?

I am having the same problem, with Jamstix Demo version. I did include the correct path in the VST path form. When installing Addictive Drums I faced the same problem. Would Jamstix be supported on Vista 64bits? Or do I need any software to allow Jamstix to work on Vista 64?

Best regards,

Best regards,

Simple question first: Did you re-scan the VST directory in REAPER after you loaded Jamstix?
