Rayzoon Technologies has released a v1.1 update for its virtual drummer VSTi Jamstix. This update includes numerous enhancements, as well as various bug fixes.
Enhancements:
- Jamstix can now handle time signature changes within a song.
- Audio trim knob is now input trim knob and controls MIDI input as well as audio.
- Audio-in velocity map is now input velocity map knob and controls MIDI input response as well as audio.
- Added 'accent suppression' to mode editor to specify a number of bars that should be without snare or tom accents after a fill or intro.
- Added instant fill, intro and ending triggers to the mode editor.
- Fills and intros are now protected within a live loop (unless on the last bar of the loop).
- Data is now zipped to reduce project file size by about 300kB.
- Preview is now at host tempo instead of fixed.
- Added 'PowerPlay' MIDI automation parameter.
- Visually improved buttons.
- Tooltips (bubble help) abandoned in favor of status line hint display with higher compatibility and less CPU usage.
- Jam control panel sliders that do not apply to manual jam are now hidden in manual jam.
- Added MIDI automation parameter that can suppress snare and tom accents.
- Bar offset can now be set via ini file (works like bar offsets in Cubase).
- Console sliders can now be trimmed via ini setting (GainBoost=x with x being a multiplier).
- Added percentage display to tooltips on various sliders in the jam tab.
- When loading a project with Jamstix in Free Jam mode, the arrangement is no longer reset.
- Expanded manual + 'Free Jam Quick Start Guide' for Sonar, Cubase and Tracktion.
- AudioM8 now supports muting audio source.
- Added logic to detect missing 'accents' folder and prompt the user.
- MIDI automation toggle parameters now toggle at 50% vs. 0/100% to make editing easier.
- DFHS extra sounds (LRTom, LRSnare) can now be mapped via ini file.
- Reduced disk and memory footprint.
- Jamstix now aborts the module load and prompts the user if a sub-hosted module requires more outputs than Jamstix is set to (still some exceptions).
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed chimes offset.
- Fixed several 'Invalid Pointer Operation' errors.
- Fixed pulsating screen refresh when changing fills etc. in the arranger.
- Return-to-zero now works fine in SAVIHost and Chainer Standalone.
- Fixed Jamstix 'forgetting' key word jam settings after GUI close.
- Console outputs shown in use when subhosting now reflect actual outputs in use by module.
