I have Jamstix sending MIDI out to a MIDI track in Cubase 14. Then that MIDI track goes to the input of Studio Drummer (in Kontakt). Jamstix plays both kits and I can mute one or the other of the AUDIO Channels.
When I click on a kit piece in the kit view of Jamstix, it doesn't send the MIDI out. As far as I can tell, it is not making out to the Cubase MIDI track (no activity showing). It also doesn't send any MIDI out when I hover over the events in the groove editor (i.e. the auto audition). I have been away from the DAW for a bit and can't seem to figure this out.
GOAL: I want to click on the kit pieces and articulations in Jamstix and see what triggers in Studio Drummer. I am using the Studio Drummer default MIDI mapping but just want to see if there are some pieces or articulations that I might need to adjust or add.

Hey jas_lan,

See if this post by steve b helps: https://rayzoon2.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=50961#50961

Thanks for the reply. That didn't work but I found something that does.
On the Kit dropdown menu, if I select "MIDI Key & Linkage Editor", it lists all the kit pieces and articulations with the Midi note sent out. When I click on the kit piece articulations in the left column of this editor, it sends the midi note out which then triggers the associated kit piece and articulation in studio drummer.

I guess Jamstix doesn't send the MIDI out when you click on a kit piece with the mouse (unless there is an option that I am missing).

That's strange because if I "Set all to midi output" when right clicking in the Kit window, it will trigger EZD3 and show what note EZD3 received. As long as you found something that works though, that's all that matters.

I will try that this evening. I didn’t try that before because I still wanted the internal Jamstix audio to compare with the Studio Drummer audio. I think the option I saw was set to ONLY MIDI output but maybe I misunderstood or misread it.

Hi Brian,

No check mark or any indication that MIDI OUTPUT ONLY is enabled other than the sample name bar in the Kit editor displaying MIDI OUTPUT ONLY when you click a Kit piece. Once you select it, the only way to get audio samples back is to load a Kit again.

The MIDI ONLY in the Mixer acts as a "toggle" for playing back the audio samples while still generating MIDI output. If you click on a Kit piece however, the audio sample still plays back. Hope this makes sense.

thanks for the clarification.

Hey Brian,

I just noticed that after you set the Kit to MIDI OUTPUT ONLY, if you "Change Sound" on any Kit piece, all of the Cymbals suddenly have the MIDI label on them.
