Using a control surface to control Jamstix

Can I map a midi controller to change Style and/or player on the fly?

What I'm trying to do is to set up a bcr2000 to most if not all of the functions in Jamstix. The reason being that I'd really like to sit and twiddle knobs to kind of browse through beats...similar to an old fashioned drum machine.

I'm not sure if this is possible with the way that jamstix generates it's data.

Linking midi controllers to other variables is somewhat helpful...but doesn't totally work for what I want to do because the variables change so mush from drummer-drummer and style to style.

Hope this helps and makes sense.

You can map all brain elements but not style/drummer. You could use 'Liveloops' and set up parts with different styles/drummers as needed and then switch between parts with the controller.
