Hi!
I love the way I can combine my playing with Jamstix, but it doesn't recognize my groove timing when importing my midi files. So it would be cool if I didn't have to quantize my timing and having just to rely only on Jamstix timing, but if it could recognize my playing behaviour, adapt to it and getting a feel for my timing idiosyncrasis. If it would add to my playing, it would be playing in my feel for timing at the time when I was recording my midi file.
What do you think about this?

Jamstix follows the tempo of the host: if you can build a time-map from your groove in your host, Jamstix will follow. That means that you have to re-consider your problem from the opposite point of view: it's not a Jamestix problem but a host's one.
Hosts like PT, Sonar or Live allow you to create a time map-from a groove...obviously this takes a bit of time and it's not a click-n-go procedure. Nevertheless, it is possible to do what you want, given that you have an adequate host. |

Disable 'Quantize Import' in the 'Options' screen and see if your timing is preserved now.
'Feel Detection' is planned for future versions of Jamstix but be forewarned that it requires either a carefully edited MID file or a large number of MID files to ensure that mistakes do not cloud the timing analysis too much. _________________ Ralph Zeuner

| mmmm.... feel detection.... this has to be the final frontier for Jamstix, short of us all having brain->midi implants... |
