Hmmm, a new drummer, eh? That wouldn't be Animal from the Muppets, would it?

Fraggle Rock?

Anyone else I know?

[Arcana]

Ooh, 2 new skins. But no screenshots, so I'll have to wait the whole day until I get home to see it.

[koolkeys]

They are in this thread:

one of them yes. I also thought perhaps it might have changed a bit since it was posted. Not that I'm complaining if it hasn't. Looks good.

Hello Ralph

with 2.019 the layout of the skin is totally messed up
in traction2 and also in Savihost
also several unreadable messages are mensioned in the help row
(ERROR dLL adress 00000224 etc)

It's ok here, too, in savihost 1.31.0.1.
Only ugly problem (not JS related):
Savi- and Minihost always turn on those hideous window animations, any idea how to stop that ?

lucky,
don't worry, when my brain is empty it's a refresh problem, too, most of the time.
sorry, you asked for it !
Cheers,
Rhino

My VST window (which is not resizable) is clipped off on the left side by about 10%.

I am using Windows XP and Ableton Live 6.0.10

Edit: After looking at it further it is really messed up in text placement being out of bounds of the outlines etc. My screen setting are 1280 X 1024 And my DPI is 125% Normal (120 DPI)

Edit 2: Relaoded 2.0.18 and which works just fine.

Hi Ralph
I am using savihost,after the update,I can't audition the kits on the external instruments(midi-out only).It plays the groove fine but when I stop the groove ,when I hit individual kits the jamstix doesn't transmit anything out but as I said when I start the groove the js2 tranmitts again as usual but still not my individual hits on the kit page.

peace
burak
The problem is gone when I reinstalled the 2.018

Hi Ralph,

Under C4 the midi drag and drop feature work not correctly.
It lost some midi data.

Dunno, maybe it's me, but...

No matter if I have a transition or repeating fill activated, and in the "fill" section of the pattern is "end with Crash" activated... I hear jack sh*t, meaning no crash at all. Tried this with different styles, kits (the JS2 Stock kit, didn't install all others from JS1 yet, as I have a question about that in another thread) and drummer brains. No chance.

Is this maybe a bug?


One bug for sure is, if I use the Classic Style and Silent Drummer, then click in the pattern editor right on one of the sliders with a right click. Then I get this message: "List index out of Bounds (-1)", if I click okay now, then it starts the MIDI CC routing window.


System:
Windows XP Pro SP2 (all updates)
Intel P4 2,4GHz Single Core
1GB RAM
Cubase SX3.1.1 Built 944 (the last update that was available)

Hi all.

With 2.0.20 i can't load ccMaps (it may be a prob in earlier versions, but i didnt use it ). Every try i get an AccessViolationError at address ....20. If i kill the errordialog the ccMap seems to be loaded. But i dont know if there are unknown sideeffects then.
This happens under Win XP pro and Vista Ultimate. Hosts are Cubase4, Live6 and Sonar6PE.

Btw. the CC-learning does nothing here. If i move a midicontroller in the ccMap-Dialog (the MidiIn is lightening) nothing happens. The manual says the moved controller should be selected.?!? Or do i need to set "Jam with midi"? hmmm.

Ooh, this was unexpected. I like them VERY much.

One tiny catch, the leftmost icon on the top right area - brings you to the Jamstix 1 home page, not Jamstix 2.

[Compyfox]

wait! We're on 2.0.20 now? Unless that was a typo.
