Getting rid of cymbal on first beat and...

Blues_man · Post by **Blues_man** » Thu Nov 27, 2008 8:20 pm

Programming a song I am working on into jamstix, doing all the drum patterns, fills and everything. On the fill I am working on, the cymbal get hit on the first beat. I know about the drop down to not have the crash on end of fill, and that is not checked at all, but am getting the cymbal on the first beat, using silent drummer even . How do I get rid of that? Only thing I have in the cell is tom 1.
Also, should every drum in the kit load as what is in the picture? I have noticed on some kits, some cymbals actually play a different cymbal, and some toms that way too.

Send me a 'save song' of the JS2 project so I can advise better on the crash cymbal. The cymbal/tom alignment you noticed is due to sound replacements where Jamstix picks different sounds depending on what is loaded to ensure the existing sounds are best used.

Blues_man: I checked your file and you need to uncheck 'End Crash' on the bar with the fill.

Yeah that's it.

This Ralph guy is pretty good!

well.. I had it unchecked... and was getting the crash on the down beat of the first beat of the first measure. If I removed the tom hit on that down beat, no cymbal. So not sure what is causing it.

Are you sure you unchecked it on the fill before the crash and not on the bar where the crash occurred? The CWP you sent definitely had 'End Crash' checked on the fill.
