Is there a DAW that lets you just play bass or guitar,and Jamstix follows your tempo,and not the DAWS tempo,be it tap tempo or a set tempo that I have in Ableton live?

You can do some very interesting things in a Ableton Live environment. Check this out:

Or more generally, check this:

Saw the app last year at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt and it was pretty amazing.
Just didn´t have proper time to test this yet.

Thanks Doc
human syncronizer.Sounds like a Zappa track from Joe's Garage.Looks like just what I needed (cars track now).As it says on the http://www.adiginvention.com/ website "puts the musician back in charge" of tempo.One of the things I always loved about Hendrix was the way he changed tempo,almost every 2nd bar in some of his jams.What with all this quantization,everythings got a bit robotic.You listen to someone late before quantize become the norm in drum machines,and DAWS,say Stewart Copeland, and his behind the beat.

Right on, Steve.
I, too will have to check this out very soon.
I would love your drummer to be able to fly in some ambient sounds or noises in Ableton while playing live and not being slave to a click track.

Hi Folks,

Has anybody tried these in real life?

Ideally, I'd like to just tap a pedal to keep things in sync, like

But I was hoping for a software solution.
