Jamstix & REAPER

The key is that the path to the jamstix2_demo.dll is in the plugin search path of REAPER. If it already is, do a rescan.

Jamstix can be used under Vista-64 with a 32-bit host.

Yes, I did a rescan and a restart of Reaper (version 2.54/[u:026d839d84]64[/u:026d839d84] bits version).

I am not very familiar with reaper, but I should see Jamstix after adding a track to the song and then selecting FX, and then VSti, right? When doing so, I just see three Cockos Vsti's. Also when searching with filter for "jam" I only see NinJam.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

REAPER 64-bit requires 64-bit plugins (AFAIK). Jamstix is 32-bit.

Make sure you have the path/folder to the jamstix2_demo.dll in your
Reaper/Options/Preferences/VSTs.From this picture you wull see where I keep my VSTs for Reaper but have also included my Jamstix Folder,

and apply

Then click on the Clear Cache and Re-scan Directory option.

As for 64 bit/32 bit I'm running JS in Reaper no real problems on a 32 bit winXP pro O/S.

Ralph,
Your advice was very helpful. It explains why I also couldn't get Addictive Drums to work. I resolved it by reinstalling reaper, but now using the 32-bits version. Now Jamstix works like a charm. Excellent program by the way. Perfect stuff. Keep up the good work !! 8) 8)

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 :)
Hi Back at ya Shep! Thanks for the info. I'll check that out tonight. Hope that's it!
Checked the settings. They were already as you mentioned. Also, I have never saved when running. I always save when the project is stopped.

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... :wink:
I haven't heard any further discussion on this specific bug but this seems to be fixed in the 2.5.1 beta. I am no longer losing JS settings on REAPER saves.!!!!

hmm, I don't.... I wonder what the difference is.....? Although you said you saved while playing right? I always stop, then save.

No I have to do it even when stopped but I'm happy with it as it was a PITA before as I was getting long delays when I closed JS the more complicated the drum track got.My PC is a bit old,AMD 3800+ 2.8Ghz and had glitches if I applied FX to the JS track.
