The new 16th shuffle feature is quite handy and I use it quite a lot now. Both 8th and 16th shuffle would be better still IMO with variable degrees of shuffle rather than the simple On/off control.

Most hosts (eg Logic, Cubase) and Drum samplers (eg BFD) offer this feature in the form of midi quantize with variable swing. A lot of oldtime rock and roll (eg 60s Stones) has some degree of swing - it is not played as straight 8ths.

Just wondered if this is on the roadmap already.

It's on the list for JS2.

Thanks for the update Zauni.

ETA of JS2 is perhaps 7 months or so off according to the thread in the forum - maybe fewer. Any chance of a quick and dirty swing scaling contol before then? Ifind myself playing parts that have that sort of moderate swing/shuffle feel and trying to match them with the JS feel.

I guess there are issues to do with getting fills etc to conform to the variable swing feel - although this seems to have happened pretty well with the brushpack swing feels.

The other thing that would be interesting in this line is the Purdey shuffle.

Regards,
Phil

As much as I hate to say it but we won't be able to do a q&d on this one.
