But the key map isn't loaded, it stays empty or like before loading the kit - the same happens with stock JS2 kits.

Check "Midi Only" on the mixer page before you load the kit preset you want and you will get no samples loading but the keymap will be operating. Works great for me. |

I'll check that out.

2) I find the GUI a little too large, is it possible to scale it down or reduce some space (for example, the "kit", "options" etc. buttons are way too big for me)?
|
Nothing we can do at this time. We'll take that into account for updates later on.

3) And, can you display next to each part the drummer and style like in 2.x?
|
If you click on the PART label in the song sheet you can switch to drummer or style display _________________ Ralph Zeuner

Mr Fee, thank you thank you thank you for the tip about using JS in midi-only mode. It is hard to remember every nook and cranny of every VST one owns, and this was one nook I had forgotten about.
My $20 SSDEx is now slamming away quite happily on my old PC.
You do indeed merit the title of Jam meister. |

In relation with my other Q in the JS3 preorder thread:
Do you plan another beta which extends the beta expiration date?
Just curious. |

Beta A13 problem report: if you right click a kit piece in kit view and cancel the pop up menu, the bottom view goes to compose instead of staying to kit piece details.
This also happens with other gestures in kit mode: sometimes the bottom panel goes to compose panel.
It is solved by clicking "song" and "kit" button.
I confirm that loading a kit with "keys only" does nothing.
As advised above (thanks!!!), the only way to load key mappings only is enabling "midi only" before loading the kit.
Thanks,
Mario |

"Keys Only" works fine for me. Can someone give me a precise example?(what kit loaded, drum and key shown, which kit key-loaded, new key shown for same drum) _________________ Ralph Zeuner

Load empty kit, then disable "Midi only", go to load kit, set "keys only" and load a Steven Slate Kit. Shouldn't I get the key assignment for all kit pieces without the plugin subhosted?
Or maybe am I just simply misunderstanding the function?
Thanks,

JS 3 has already come a long way, itīs an awesome evolution of the program, congratulations.
The only problem I have ATM is the bar editor.
Itīs giving me inconsistent and unpredictable results when I try to hand- edit.
Example:
I let JS compose.
Now I try to remove all the kick notes from the bar.
I manually remove them from bar, accent, and fill window.
Still I get some kick drum that I canīt manually kill.
My host is Ableton Live 8. |

I have the same problem intermittently. Sometimes there are sounds I can't see anywhere that I can still hear. I'll see if I can come up with a recipe.

In my case, it's not always the kick, and it doesn't appear in any of the tabs.

Kick was only for example. In my case itīs not always the kick either.
Iīm 100% sure I deleted every accessible event (in bar/accent/fill) but sometimes thereīs still sound.
And these remaining events canīt be seen anywhere. |
