Excellent!

I knew there was a reason I kept n-Track when I moved to Samplitude... Believe it or not, Samplitude is device+channel specific to record midi, whereas n-Track records anything/everything on a channel, meaning n-Track can record JS midi during playback and Samplitude cannot.

Just wanted to mention that setting the host's PPQ value to 384 or above seems to really help in recording a smooth, well timed JS performance midi file while subhosting DFHS. (ASIO latency should be low as practical as well)

I gotta hand it to you Ralph, JS subhosting DFHS is incredible!

BTW - did you have a chance to try "DFHS FF 900MB Sonor brushes.rdm" yet?

I put a package together of a plugin, instructions, example files, etc. for Samplitude 7 & 8 users and Tracktion users that want to record the JamStix midi output in DFHS format in order to be able to do a trackbounce out of DFHS. Get it here:

http://www.geocities.com/skitron/downloads/MidiRouter.zip

Of course use at your own risk, no guarantees, yadda, yadda... Wink

Make a folder named "MidiRouter" under "Program files", d/l the zip into it and double click the zip to extract everything.

[edit] BTW - it should work with any host though it might not be necessary...

I'm a relatively new owner of both Jamstix (awesome) and dfh Superior (awesome), and am working with them inside Samplitude.

I have them loaded on both my desktop DAW and my laptop.

Everything runs great on my desktop, but on my laptop I recently got an error message when trying to load dfhs from Jamstix (external vst).

The error message:
Access violation 0C5EBFCF in module jamstix.dll Read of address 00000038.

I have the latest versions of jamstix and dfh installed.
I have all the ASIO and other configurations setup correctly (from what I can see).

I'll keep checking it today, but just wanted to send a heads-up to the developers. I also realize that I may have missed a step in the setup.

System:
system functioning correctly with jamstix/dfhs -
Creamware PulsarI/SRB/PowerSampler
Samplitude 8.21
2G RAM
3GHz P4 CPU

system with error message:
RME Multiface I / HDSP Cardbus
Samplitude 8.21
1GHz RAM
2.4 GHz RAM

Thanks,

Greg

It may be RAM-related. Does the FF600 mapping load fine?

Also, does DFHS load fine by itself outside of Jamstix?

dfhs loads fine by itself (as does Jamstix).

I haven't tried the FF600 mapping yet, but the 900 does load on my desktop DAW. Haven't tried either on the laptop yet - which may be the problem. I may be missing a step in the sequence of loading jamstix, starting up dfh, getting the map, etc. etc.

I'll re-read the manual again, but the process of getting the 3 apps to work together is still a little convoluted (lots of options, variability, etc.).

By the way, this is for a project that is audio only, and I'm using the audio tracking function. No MIDI involved (yet).

Thanks for the great product and support.

I finally got jamstx and dfhs running stable on my desktop machine. I DID have one BSOD before I had a chance to set the ASIO drivers in Samplitude.

Now it's running fine with the FF600, however the playback is 'cymbal-heavy', and I am unable to scale the playback at all. I will continue tomorrow with more trials.

Overall it's a great combination.

yeah, I guess it's time for a more memory on my Asus P4C800 motherboard.

I think it can max out at 4Gig.

Thanks,

I recently switched from BFD to DFHS/C&V. In the process I have made my own drummaps in Cubase to play extended GM. The idea is to use drummer for drums and percussionist for things like shaker/tambourine etc. when playing downloaded GM files.

Now adding jamstix to the equation and having it do midi only I find it sounds okay with default + my extended GM to drummer/percusionist map. Alternatively I can load one of the DHFS maps from jamstix and the use no drum map.

Maybe, for clarity, we should have GM (muted percussion) and extended GM (with percussion) maps for jamstix to load when running midi only.
