Rayzoon releases Jamstix v1.3.2

Rayzoon Technologies has updated Jamstix to v1.3.2. This update implements add-on installing capability for future sound packs, including the recently announced DrumPak #1. It also features various enhancements and fixes.

Changes:

• Added function to load/save free jam settings (disk icon in free jam style panel title bar).
• Added function to load/save arrangements (disk icon in arranger title bar).
• Added global velocity variance slider to the control panel that affects all sounds except snare and hihat/ride.
• Added auto-installer for add-on packs.
• Replaced 'Allow Rimshots' switch with 'X-Samples' switch.
• The fill start bar is now stored in the song data.
• Hihat panel variance slider now also affects ride cymbal.
• Added 'Always Ride' MIDI automation parameter.
• Free jam randomizer now favors closed hats more.
• Added option 'TempoMultiplier' to [General] section of jamstix.ini. This allows running Jamstix at a different tempo than the host.
• MIDI controller events are now passed on to subhosted VSTi (except Volume #7 since Jamstix handles that one).
• Increased pass-through VSTi outputs to 34 (17 stereo) to support hosting BFD Ultra. (Note that DirectiXer cannot handle more than 32 outputs).
• AudioM8 can now be run in multiple instances and saves its mute status to the project.
• Added support for MIDI CC7 so that standard MIDI Volume automation can control all outputs.
• Voice reduction has been modified to allow for even more realistic sound of the internal engine.
• Added option to jam habits to toggle the switch to semi hats during fills, intros and endings.
• Added a readout to the fill,intro and endings screen that shows at what quarter the selected item starts to make it easier to find something of the desired length.
• Added jamstix.ini option to alter the function of the 'Reset' button in the rhythm tab. If 'ResetToSilence=1' is specified in the [General] section, the reset button will set snare accents, tom accents, normal cymbals and power cymbals to 0.
• Fixed crackle when using very short sustains on internal sounds.
• Fixed chimes playing in 'Snare It' fill.
• Fixed an issue with rhythms being altered when reloading a project in free jam mode under certain circumstances.
• Fixed arranger scrollbar buttons.
• Fixed constant note offset when using DSP-based plugins in conjunction with Jamstix by adding automatic timing offset control via audiom8. All one has to do is have audioM8 in the project (doesn't even need any input). Note that this is only necessary if you use DSP-based plugins with Jamstix and experience early notes from Jamstix.
• Fixed GM input mapping when using external VSTi.
• Fixed BFD GUI not showing inside of Jamstix when loading more than one project with Jamstix during a single session with certain hosts.
• Fixed MIDI export problems resulting in incorrect tom notes.
• Fixed MIDI export problems when using DFHS mappings with LR samples in 'MIDI-Out Only' mode.
