Here's my new EP, which I finished using Jamstix 4.

https://councilofone.bandcamp.com/album/5-at-50

I had actually begun it using JS3, and the transition of those tracks-in-progress to JS4 was seamless.

Samples are all BFD3, though I did seriously consider using the "Everything" kit for this one. I'd need to work with the Everything kit more to get what I want out of it, but the sound engine is a huge improvement over JS3.

For my workflow, I found JS4 more pleasant to use, and I was easily able to tailor my kits to the various setups I tried during mixing--BFD3, Slate Drums, and SD2.

I also really enjoyed being able to "watch" the drum performances as they happened--and so did my 3-year-old son! It sounds silly, but it actually helped me during the composition process to see what the "drummer" was doing.

The new interface makes editing drum parts a LOT easier, though I didn't have to do a lot of that for this project, which is more improvisational and less composed than my last album. The "Mark" drummer really hit the spot on a couple of these tracks.

My next projects will be more composed and will require more detailing drum part tailoring, and I'll put JS4 more to the test then.

JS4 is an integral part of my music-making, and I'd be lost without.
