|
|
I have an interesting thing going on within my project. Since I'm new to Jamstix, I was wondering what I'm missing.
I'm trying to use the arranger to organize my grooves within Jamstix. I'm using Sonar V PE/BFD All. I'm noticing that between several grooves transitions, there are fills that I cannot remove from the arranger. I'm noticing Jamstix is putting a fill at the end of a groove, and at the first bar of the different groove. (two yellow boxes together). Well, I don't want 2 fills together like this. Normally I would just highlight the bar, move over the fill area and deselect the box so that no fill plays. Jamstix is not allowing me to do that. I highlight the bar, go over to the fill, and when I go to deselect the fill, Jamstix changes the fill to another fill - rather than remove it.
What am I doing wrong here!? Jamstix is preventing me from removing fills?! Is there another way to do this!? Please advise. _________________ Metal Born Again:

Go to the arranger, right-click on the fill and click "Reset'. That will remove the fill. _________________ Ralph Zeuner

I've done that, but when I remove the fill and playback the track, Jamstix seems to put that darn fill right back in there again automatically. What am I missing. It's like it has a mind of its own here. Please help! I have "use arrangement" checked _________________ Metal Born Again:

Make sure you are in "Manual Jam" mode when you override fills. In "Free Jam" mode, Jamstix does indeed have a mind of its own  _________________ Ralph Zeuner

I wasn't aware I was in any "Jam mode" when I'm using the arranger. Sorry, I'm new to this - please excuse the ignorance.
So, put it in manual Jam. now will this change all other settings?? _________________ Metal Born Again:

I'm here to help, so ask away any way you like.

The concept is like this:
You start off in 'free jam' and Jamstix does its thing, creating rhythms, changing them and putting fills. All of this is controlled by the jam tab settings.
Then you get to the point of fine-tuning and you set JS to 'manual jam'. The arrangement stays the same, nothing changes. You can now fine-tune things like rhythms, changes and fills in the arranger.
As a side note: some people never use 'free jam' and always operate JS in 'manual jam' mode, using library rhythms or their own creations, arranging them by hand and then placing fills as needed.
In other words: many different approaches are possible. _________________ Ralph Zeuner
