Hi Ralph

I have been following with great interest!

Unfortunately Beta 13 locks up Reaper hard here if I go and try to change a style once it has booted up?

Cheers
Jed

Please send me your rzdlog.txt file
Thanks!

Dont worry Ralph - I reset Reaper back to its defaults and JX2 runs OK now. Pain having to reset Reaper back up but I'll live!

Cheers

No locking with Reaper here but I do have an annoying thing happening with Imported styles. I have a song with about 12 parts that are on the "import" style. The imported groove is set to JS2 and it's a groove I saved with JS2. When I change the drummer on the entire song it properly detects that it should recompose all the bars. The problem is it "recomposes" by just deleting all the notes in the bars. I can get around it by re-importing the groove, but that is a pain to have to do on 12 parts every time I want to try a different drummer.

Bvesco, please do a 'Save Song' in JS2 on that one and send the file to me. Thanks!
