JJOS 3 & 128XL - Version 2

Hi guys I got an akai mpc 1000 today ... I wondered about something , it says jjos 3.8 , is there a newer one right now before 3.2? and... do you know if I download and installed the newer one whether i would have to pay for it ? --- thanks in advance

Thank you JJOS,
I'm back on 128XL after enjoying 128SP, transfer of projects was seamless though. Nondestructive chop is really easy & fun (i like). Pattern creation mode amongst other things I need to spend time with to truly appreciate its usefulness in my workflow.
Jus acknowledging & appreciating the amount of work put into these update. Give thanks bro...

Yes! Thank you JJ. Installed and played around with the 808 button, awesome work!

I hardly post here, you are all a legend, especially JJ. THANK YOU!!!
You put so much back into the community! ...and not asking for a penny/cent...
My deepest RESPECT

Thank you

Thanks for the update

yes nondestructive chop is really easy and accessible from the program page

only thing I notice is it stops the sequencer when you turn on chop, which I believe 2xl does too.
you can restart it but some of the currently playing tracks sometimes cut out.


does anyone know if in the last version of os3 (1.52) if there is a way to access the waveform like you can in 128xl? with the bigger screen seems like you can see the waveform along the bottom, wondering If there is a way to do that with the standard size screen?

after resisting OS3 ver 1 for a while I gave it a throrough test over the passed month. I love it and wont be going back to os2xl.... What i missed about 0S2xl was having fx sets... and still do. But I definitely prefer non destructive slice to the NDC featured in OS2xl

you access the wavefrom via the trim mode set to pgm mode.
step1. PGM mode > F1> tab to OFF field> set to ON
step2. Open Window > set # of slices > DO IT
step3. TRIM mode > F1

what i usually do... after setting the number of slices I will set the start points of the slices from the program screen for each pad. It isnt precise but you can get pretty close. Then switching to trim set to pgm mode you can zoom in and fine tune each pad slice very quickly... tap pad > set start... rinse, repeat.

Version 2 takes out more than it gives from what I see. Pad Pressure from main screen, Per pad repeat, hold, solo gone... patterns gone... only thing really coming back is NDC and while I know lots of people dig it I dont know if those ppl really got the workflow down for the way its done in OS3.

I'm going to make some time Sunday.

I don’t understand the text below on the main-page due to, that JJOS have too many JJOS versions offered.

I have installed OS 3 V 1.52 and paid for unlocking in the past. I want to be sure before upgrading to OS 3 V2.

Do I have to pay or not to be able to use OS 3 V 2.0?
