Is anyone successfully using Jamstix 3 with Pro Tools 9? My wrapper is working and Jamstix shows up as a instrument VST but that is as far as I have gone.

I can not seem to get Jamstix off of Drum Module Mode.

I would also like Jamstix to subhost Superior 2 but only a few of my EZX paks show up under Jamstix. I also have the NY Studios & C&V and those do not show up either under Jamstix.

Here is one shot where I am stuck.

I would also like to use the Multi outs in Jamstix through Pro Tools but do not know how to set it up. I receive this error message when I point Jamstix to the Superior.dll "Cannot Load Module because it requires at least 16 outputs. Please adjust Jamstix accordingly and restart Jamstix."

How do I correct this?

I am running Jamstix version 3.0.1.

Thanks for the help!

I don't know Protools but I'll see if I can help.

I don't use Drum module mode preferring to let JS do it's own thing.I almost alway use,"Normal" mode.JS will generate way better drum parts faster and better than 99% of midi clips IMHO.

1:Have you got a midi drum file on the track so JS has something to play in drum module mode?

Multi outs.

2:JS/Kit/Arrow head at the top left.Choose you outs Smile

Thanks for the help. For the multi-outs my Jamstix only shows a max of 8 outs. Does that sound correct?

For some reason I thought JS could output 16.

I think the 8 out are 8 stereo pairs.I've never really needed more than 5 stereo outs :/

You can adjust the audio outputs in JS3 Options.

What happens when you click 'Normal Jam'?

Ok it is starting to work better.

I just have a few minor issues and then I should be all set.

1) In Jamstix only my Superior 2 module shows up and not all of my other add on packs (NY Studios, Avatar, C&V all the EZX packs). The same goes for my Steven Slate drums even though I have all of the Platinum kits.

2) Is my GUI supposed to look like this in Pro Tools? It seems some of the graphics are missing compared to when I run the plugin in Reaper.

Ok quick update. The wrapper is NOT working with Jamstix very well at all. It keeps crashing Pro Tools as I keep receiving the error message that I am out of CPU power. Impossible since I am running a new Intel i20 chip and Jamstix is the only plugin I am using.

I don't think this is any fault of Jamstix but more of a wrapper/Pro Tools issue. It is a shame because this is the only reason I spent the $100 on the wrapper.

I did find a workaround that may work. I tried Rewiring Reaper with Pro Tools with Jamstix operating inside of Reaper. I found an online video that showed this is a good way to use a lot of VST's to play nice with Pro Tools. Now if I can just get the multiple outputs to output from Reaper via Rewire into Pro Tools I will be in business.
