IS it just me?

I find the v3.50 Kit Browser less usable than that in v3.3.0:
[list:b55ee68e9a][*:b55ee68e9a]v3.3.0 presented a hierarchical set of folders and files,
[*:b55ee68e9a]v3.5.0 is a single level of folders
[*:b55ee68e9a]v3.5.0 folders containing only folders are listed but cannot be opened
[*:b55ee68e9a]v3.5.0 lists .rdm files (kits from JS1) at the top level not in their containing folder
[*:b55ee68e9a]v3.5.0 shows sub-folders in their alphabetical position, not in their containing folder.[/list:u:b55ee68e9a]

That's because there is a bug in 3.5 that makes it still scan for RDM files to build that dialog even though RDM loading is not supported in 3.5. We'll have that fixed soon.

Understood. From your other post, I presume that the fix will ot display the .rdm files at all.

I could not find any relevant posts, but will you be reconsidering the single-level browser and implementing a hierarchical model?

That's a bug and will be fixed.

Not just you. I have BrushPak, SnarePak, and ePak kits showing up at the top level, but they can't be opened. Some of the kits are present in the (XL) entrie in other "kit style" folders, but not all of them. However, individual drum samples from all the JS1 Paks seem to be present.

Glad to hear you're already working to fix this Ralph!

So, on this subject, I just checked out the Rayzoon sales page. It looks like Jamstix 3 Studio has all of the big Paks (all the Paks that I have too), including Jamcussion. When a new customer buys Studio, do they get a single package, or do they need to install individual Paks too?

If you are bundling into one install/authorization for new customers, you may consider offering a "premium service" to existing customers to roll over all of their licenses into a single package to avoid these kinds of issues in the future. Charge a small fee. It would increase cash flow--I'm sure 80%+ of your customers would pay for it just to support your continued success!

I can answer the first question. I've just installed the studio deal. There was one authorisation as far as I can tell as only one license file. My download folder contained separate install paks. The installer allowed me to select all the individual paks then press 'go' for it to install everything. Very simple indeed.

Keys.

Keys-reaper is correct: while the Paks are separate, they can now be selected at once in V3.5 and be installed in one go. All users with V3.3 or higher have a single license key file for all their purchases.

DarkStar: just released 3.5.1 Beta 1, which fixes the kit dialog.
