JamStix is an amazing product. So many options to make the drum groove original and reminiscent of popular drummers at the same time.

I like to use the Wizard to create a track and then edit it to coincide with my song. I always start my song on measure 2 so I begin by adding a silent measure in JS first. Then I add/subtract measures to fit the rest of the tune.

Next comes the fun part of experimenting with different drum kits, drummer profiles, accents, fills, etc. These can all be changed per section if desired. The AI of the program prevents physically impossible hits which keeps it more realistic.

Being a non drummer, JamStix has been a remarkable tool for me in my hobbyist attempts at enjoying making "music" :-) .

I am so looking forward to when Ralph, the developer, ports JS over to iOS which is becoming my method of choice at least starting my new creations.
