Is there a way to adjust the intensity level that jamstix reads before it goes to 'power play'??? I am playing guitar with a pick for the first time in a while, and I'm not even playing that hard before jamstix goes into power play. and the same goes for when i'm playing soft.....for example, what i have set in my head as 'soft' playing(requiring maybe use of a sidestick hit, instead of regular snare hit) is not the same as what jamstix thinks. I dunno, it may be asking alot, but just curious if theres a way to tell jamstix what level to play sidestick and what level to power play....



THanks!

Go to the Jam Tab and play with the POWER SENSITIVITY, MIN VELOCITYand MAX VELOCITY levels. That should help you to adjust JS to your playing.

There is also the document 'Free Jam Quick Start' PDF in your Jamstix manuals folder that discusses audio trimming in more detail.

In additionj to what Doc said, I recommend for you to:

1) Adjust the input trim knob next to the 'Jam With Audio' button so that your loudest play just triggers Power Play.

2) Go to the mapping tab, right-click on input velocity map and choose 'Load Map' and load 'Wide Higher' from the mappings folder.
This will give you a nice 'sweet spot' for the whole mid level velocity range.

You can then experiment with the curve as needed.
