Les, you're my hero for the day. That makes it much, much better.

I too run at 1024 x 768 resolution, and its quite frustrating that JS Beta 3 runs off the screen. A partial fix, in Reaper at least, is insert JS3 on a track. Click the FX button to open the JS3 GUI ,then rightclick on the empty space left of screen, and choose "window float selected FX". JS3 then opens its GUI to fullscreen, with a bit of resizing, scrollbars are gone and its all visible

Works for me anyway 8)

cheers,
Les

I did this as soon as I tried JS3.It's still very clumsy IMHO.In it's present state it a step backwards in my work flow.

I can't see much point in the Delay effect.A good reverb would have been more useful?

The Antress Spacer is excellent and free or a deal could be struck,

His whole VST pack is superb.

hope some one can help me with this. Is there a way in Jamstix 3 to offset the entire song by a specific number of bars? Let's say you have your song created, and you want to add a 4 bar intro.....can this be done without having to redo th whole song?

Yes, just right-click on the first part and choose 'New Part'->'Before This Part' or use 'Create Intro'.

I try to use delay more often because i find that Reverbs tend to put the drum ( or any tracks ) to much back in space , and some kind of imprecise. I can have much more control over sound with delays ( up, down, widening ect..).

I think that using mostly delays AND a little reverb is the best approach for me, some may not agree

+2 for this as well. Been meaning to mention it.
Scroll wheel working in all panels automagikally would be so much better for workflow.

Quickstart, Groove, etc etc

I've noticed that people have commented on the benefits of reverb and delay being part of the mixer.
If its possible to get a reverb in there I would find that more useful than a delay. I really like the idea of possibly being able to mix the kit within Jamstix rather than having umpteen tracks for drums within my sequencer.
Maybe reverb and delay are possible?

A really good plate or spring reverb would be awesome.
