Audio glitches with JS3 in Sonar on Vista

[T-Break]

Hi DKE-Music........
Thanks for your advice. Before closing it last night I switched to WME which left me with different controls in Options>Audio compared to ASIO driver. Will try it now and see if it's made any difference. In the Advanced tab of Options>Audio, I did briefly notice a series of little boxes showing different sample rates. I've got a little time now to look into that. I'll also look into the small EMU ASIO window - but I seem to remember the slider only shows latency in m/secs. Under ASIO I get down to 4ms latency. Under WME, 10ms is lowest.

studio64..........
Thanks for your post too. I'll give your suggestion a go and report findings.

I guess the important thing is that bounce-downs of the JS3 track are seemingly clean.

I'll post again in the next day or two. Cheers.....

Have just released 3.0.1 Beta 2, which will further improve bar editor performance. Another thing you can do with this Beta, if you still get glitches, is to turn off the note display in bar icons. Simply add this line tothe [General] section in jamstix3.ini:

BarIconNotes=0

...........I do mean WDM driver............... !!!!!

Hi guys..............

Things are looking up now (so far). Having switched to WDM driver with minimum 10m/sec latency in place of ASIO (with 4m/sec latency) the audio glitching was not apparent over a 15 minute run of various quickstart songs and 'rolling the dice' whilst in playback.

I then switched back to ASIO driver and increased from my 4m/sec latency that was always trouble-free with JS2 to 10m/sec latency as WDM and again no apparent glitches over a 15 minute playback.

Now, I might be splitting hairs, but I think one would obviously prefer 4m/sec latency rather than 10, yet I wonder in reality if the difference would be noticed.

This seems to be the solution for me at least, but could help others experiencing similar.

I've just picked up Ralph's post to say that 3.0.1 beta 2 has been released which could help my problem further. I'll load that and then try running JS3 through ASIO driver back at 4m/sec latency and see what happens.

I'll let you know................. hmmmmm, got Monday 'cracked' for this week, JS3 seemingly sorted and band practice this eve - yeah, things are looking up........

T-Break , I also have this problem with glitches in Sonar 8.5 PE with only Jamstix running and after sending Ralph e-mail I found this thread .
Some cpu spikes also occured in Sonar but not on my system monitor .
I also did not have this problem in Jamstix ver 2 at lower latency .
I have done what you did and followed Ralphs advice conserning the baricon .
Jamstix 3 is the only vsti I have encounter this problem with .

All the best

I have similar problems in Cubase, but I found if I close the JS3 Gui totally, the glitches then go away.

Have you tried that?
I know it's not the total solution, but a work around for now in Cubase.

It may not work in Sonar, but worth a try.

I am sure Ralph will come up with the fix.

Regards

Yeah , spot on Studio 64 !!! The glitches dissaperd and I`m back on my low latency setting .

All the best
Jan

Jamstix 3.1 Beta 9 should reduce or eliminate ASIO overloads with GUI open.
