 |
|
it's gone very (very) quiet on updates for Jamstix.....
I was promised updates about 18 months ago by Ralph for various bugs and issues but nothing has ever happened. 18 months is a long time in software development.
Is it time to move on or can we expect anything going forward. It's a shame as there is nothing quite like it but it feels like a dead product at this stage. |

| It's not dead. Not trying to be sarcastic but do you have any idea how long we waited for Jamstix 4? |

so what's yours??
you have a bug? When did this crop up? did you demo the product?
I would really love to see more with Jamstix but I bought it for what it was when I bought it |

I thought the point of my post was quite clear, is JS a 'dead' product ? My view is that, if not dead, then it's definitely ailing.
To answer your questions:
yes, there are some longstanding bugs - I've been in email conversations with Ralph about them. Some fixes were supposed to be coming - 18 months ago.
yes, I demoed the product
Jae, you seem a little to be a little passive aggressive (?) so I'm sorry if my post annoyed you and I'm delighted that you're fully satisfied with it.
My question still remains but thanks for your input. |

no, it's ok, I just sometimes don't understand this kind of question. It's clearly not dead.
The problem you have is longstanding bugs and thats valid, but I think it's actually passive aggressive to ask if it's "dead."
keep pushing about the bugs. It's been a rough year for all of us. |

Agreed.
JS4 still working here. Any bug I have come across has not been a show stopper and I have found a work around and moved on.
And to be honest, if there are no more updates to this product I am fine with that. It's one of the best 'Feel' drum software you can get.
Ralph can take a break if he needs it. |

great - next questions then:
when will see see an update to fix bugs ?
when will we see M1 support ?
when will we see VST3 ?
will we ever hear from Ralph ?
I suggested 18 months ago that it was possibly abandonware because of the lack of progress in the previous 18 months.
My reckoning, that's 3 years of more or less zero progress.....I'd say that if it's not dead then it's a very heavy sleeper LOL |
