1) What does it mean when a hit in the bar editor is highlighted in yellow? An example image of this is shown in section 17.1 on page 44 of the Jamstix 4 manual (the RH hi hat on the first beat), but I can't find anything mentioning the meaning of a highlighted hit.

2) The song builder defaults to the "Standard" kit. What is this kit? I don't see a "Standard" kit in the kit selection menu. Do I have the ability to choose my favorite kit, and set it as the standard kit? If so, how? I ask this mostly because sometimes I want to go back to the "Standard" kit, and don't know how since I can't find it int he list of kits (could it perhaps be the one called "Rock - Default"?).

3) In the mixer, some of the round fader buttons appear to be white, and some are kind of grey. If I recall, the colors sometimes change when I load a new kit. Is this just for asthetics? Or is a grey fader telling me that there is something different about that channel?

EDIT: Oh, I think I see. If I move a fader button, it turns from white to grey. If I hover the mouse over a grey fader button, it glows white. I guess that grey fader button are to let you know which faders you have touched? Or maybe just a quirk in the graphics, since loading a new kit doesn't seem to reset the fader colors?

This signals that there is a start or end crash for a fill to be played.

Yes, 'Standard' is 'Rock-Standard'.

It's a bit of a quirks. Slider handles are white until you touch them.

Hi Ralph,

Thanks as always for putting up with my questions!

I didn't think about a starting/ending crash -- it makes perfect sense now.

The other answers were helpful, too.
