The dynamics knob works like a compressor and keeps the volume level consistent regardless of the playing nuances. The more clockwise it is , the less difference between the loudest and quietest sound.

<r>Turning down the power knob in js3 should help reduce the cymbals and hihats. At the lower end the drummer will play softer and less busy usually. At the lowest settings it uses sidestick hits instead of a snare hits.<br/>
<br/>
I like to automate the heck out of that knob throughout a piece. <E ...

Create a short empty clip and drag it to some point into timeline. Sonar won't play if the timeline is empty.

<t>It kinda reminds me of an old Amiga program SuperJam!, notably the Song and part editor. The Part editor is at the top, which shows the bars that make up the part. The song editor is in the lower right, which each part is represented by a block who's length is relative to the number of bars in ...

Locking it as a bitmap is perfect.

Thank you Ralph!

<t>That 3d view has me worried as my machine uses a workstation gfx card that has limited 3d capabilities in hardware, offloading most of the work onto the main processor. I hope that there will be the ability to switch to a 2d view.<br/>

The reason why I chose that card I'm using is the speed ...

<t>I don't remember and I'm not at my daw at the moment. Assuming Jamstix uses the defacto standard:<br/>

based on that table, midi note #60 is C4 not C3. The midi note number for C3 is ...

<t>C3 is midi note 60 assuming the software counts notes starting from midi note 0 = C-1.<br/>
<br/>
If the software counts notes starting 0=C0 then midi note 60 would map to C4.<br/>
<br/>
In midi, notes are represented by numbers only, not letters(note) and numbers(octave). The software maps the ...

<r>Hmm. This just my musing, but why limit Jamstix to drums? You can create a custom kit to drive a synth, and maybe use a combination of sophistica and linear to create rhytmic phrases and bass lines. The humanization aspect would lend to some interesting patterns.<br/>
<br/>
Just a thought <E ...

Create an 8 bar part (use any combination of length and repeats that makes sense to you. I use length=1,repeats=8 but thats just me) with the drummer and style set to "silent". Make sure Tf and Rf are unchecked for the silent section.
