Do any of you n-trackers have songs available for streaming from the net, with jamsticks as the drummer?

What style of music are you using jamstix in?

[sekim]

When using a midi file to do a midi based jam and also enabling the JS "midi out" option for recording the JS performance in midi, a midi feedback loop is created where the JS midi out is fed back into JS as the basis for the jam.

The steps/parms are:
1) Open a midi track with a melody file.
2) Open a VSTi instance of JS.
3) Assign the midi track to the VSTi track using midi channel 1.
4) Enable JS "output midi" assignned to channel 16 (and verify that the .ini doesn't over-ride this)
5) Click "play"

The velocity slider moves rapidly back and forth and the performance is very busy and random sounding. Going to JS "midi out" and disabling output makes it behave and sound normal.

Is this a JS problem or an n-Track problem?

This is with the last RC1.03

That's definitely a MIDI feedback loop. Sounds as if the MIDI track receives the MIDI-Out from Jamstix.

So this is a problem with n-Track? If so I'll do a bug report with Flavio.

I don't know enough about n-Track to identify this issue. If you tell Flavio your steps and that this scenario routes MIDI-Out from Jamstix back to its MIDI-In then he'll probably be able to tell us how to stop it.

Just tried this again with JS x3-1 and n-Track 1828 and it works fine now. Timing sounds pretty tight too!

Hi All,

Just registered Jamstix two days ago (jumped on the $79 deal...Thanks, Ralph! ) I'm seeing consistent N-track/Jamstix lockups whenever I manually change individual sample mappings in Jamstix. To trigger the problem, basically all I have to do is go to the "Mapping" tab and select any sample in the drop-down "Sample" list, and if "No Sound" is all that is listed, I just select it again. N-track and Jamstix freeze apparently just before the selected sample has a chance to load.

I've tried N-track 4.05, 4.04, and 3.3, as well as Jamstix 1.2, X4-3, and an old 1.01c demo, and have seen the problem with all of them and in different combinations (but I haven't tried all combinations). I've already sent a report into Flavio about it, but I was just curious if anyone else has seen this problem or knows of any workarounds (other than using a different host, of course ). Thanks!

Tony

Amazing...thanks again, Ralph!

Is there a way to disable or accelerate the 'Direct-X Plugins' scanning in n-Track. It costs a lot fo time during testing.

Thanks!

Can we get a new sticky thread with current relevant info? I'd love a nice concise tutorial on how to use Jamstix with N-Track.
