Hi,

My JS3 data directory is currently located at C:\Program Files (x86)\jamstix3\data. I would like to move it to a newly installed SSD for faster loading. Does anyone how to go about it?

Do I simply move the data directory? Do I have to reinstall paks?

Thanks for any hints,
Wolfgang

Just copy the Data folder to where you want it and then edit the entry in Jamstix.ini under General labeled DataPath= to point to your new directory.

Thanks for the hint about jamstix3.ini.

In my case the .ini file existed but was empty except for an empty [General] section. I added the new path (ending with "data") but jamstix didn't find it. Maybe the "data" part of the path has to be omitted but before I could confirm that, I found out there's an even easier way:

Move the data folder to a new location.

Start your DAW (Cubase 6 in my case), insert jamstix3 as an instrument into the rack and assign it to a MIDI or instrument track.

Jamstix will complain about the missing data folder and ask you to point it to the new location. Bingo!

OK..... we'll call that Plan B. Your .ini file is probably in your Vstplugin folder instead of C:\Jamstix. I had that happen on my system a while back

You're right: The "real" .ini file is in my VSTPlugins folder, contains a lot of stuff, and Jamstix automatically entered the correct DataPath under [General] after asking me for it as described in my previous post.

Thanks again.

Glad to help.
