Jamstix 3 RC1 - Now Available

Post by Ralph @ Rayzoon »

That is not possible since the product is not finished. The beta is in fact a time-limited demo of what is completed internally at this time. The only thing that the release will have over the last Beta is new drummers/styles and kit.

Testing A9 on W7-64, C5.1.1-32 and Reaper-64, RME @ 256 samples, Q6600 ... I find that in Cubase I hear glitches and see ASIO spikes only when the GUI is displayed, glitching goes away when I close the GUI. In Reaper, I hear the glitches regardless of whether the GUI is displayed or not (no ASIO meter in Reaper). The behaviour does not change even if I switch to Windows 7 Basic (i.e. no Aero). There is a definite correlation between graphics activity/animation of the JS3 GUI and the glitches/spikes in audio. The video card is an ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro @ 1680x1050.

We are especially interested in any issues on multi-core CPUs at low latency with Load-On-Demand on (crackling, ASIO spikes). We have tested A9 on various such configs and it performs for us flawlessly. The only exception is Cubase 4/5 for some testers. So, if you have trouble with A9 at low latencies, let us know.

Another long-standing bug fixed in A9 is multi-instancing. You should not have any trouble using multiple instances of A9. If you do, let us know.
Hey Ralph.. Getting some asio spiking here using A9 with Cubase 5.0.1. XP SP2 with a Focusrite Saffire v2.2 input buffer at 11ms. System is a Pentium D 2.8ghz w 2gb ram.. That is with LoD on - not many but some.. None with it off..

I am getting lots of ASIO spikes ...

Beta A9 over 200%, v2 never comes above 17%.

Even when the sequencer is not running ASIO is having spikes of up to 60%.

[edit]found the cause, I only get the spikes when the GUI is open, the moment I close the GUI ASIO drops to normal levels[/edit]

AMD Opteron 165 (2x1.8MHz), latency 8ms, SBlive! with KX drivers, Matrox G500 graphics.

intel duo core here

It doesn't "choke" per se, but I get spikes (resulting in clicks/pops).

Let me know if you would like my log file as well.

quad core here.

Yeah, same here with A9. Pops and clicks, kinda like a scratched record.

A10 is now out. Everyone with audio glitches at low (or any latency), please see if this beta fixes the problem. Thanks!

Definite improvement, although there are still some glitches anytime the GUI is open in Cubase 5 and there is a lot of graphics animation; with the GUI closed, it's perfect so far. No problems in Reaper whatsoever.
