Blue Ribbon-adios Amiga?
Message #41775
Gary, Your statement is patently false. You've obviously misunderstood things entirely. I would appreciate your not perpetually these false and potentially harmful rumors. Melissa Jordan Grey President The Blue Ribbon SoundWorks, Ltd.
Please make a note of Adam's new CIS ID: It's 72662,352. Please forward your question to this ID instead.
Busy, busy, busy…. That's why Adam Nitti, one of our product specialists, has taken over my responsibilities in this forum. He's here to answer any and all questions you or any other Amigaphile may have about our product line. He's better lookin' than me, too! /m
I'll have to defer this to Annette Crowley. Her CIS ID is 75010,412.
Dear John, I'm pleased to hear your thoughts on The Blue Ribbon SoundWorks. It's critically important that we hear both the praise and the criticisms. We instigated the Licensee Transfer Fee to combat the incessant amount of piracy that has taken place recently in the Amiga marketplace. (It seems to…

Sorry we couldn;t be of more assistance.
Adam Nitti Will Be Back!
Message #30661
Adam Nitti, your friendly neighborhood Blue Ribbon rep, will return next week. He's currently attending Comdex. Thank you for your patience.
It sounds to me like you've got a filter set on your MIDI Out Tool. Double-click on the MIDI OutTool that sits on the same track as your Quick Patch Tool. Make sure that you've selected Program Change as one of the events allowed to pass through. Let me know…
Too busy? Goodness! We are never too busy for our customers. We are in the process of expanding, though. Maybe you got someone who was new. In any case, if you have issue with any of our products, please call technical support at 404-315-0212 between 1pm and 5pm EST. /m
Hello, Marcel! Who did you speak to here at Blue Ribbon about the One-Stop Music Shop. I;ve heard nothing but praise for this soundcard, and as such, was surprised to hear your opinion. /m
You can EMail me your name, address, serial number, preferred shipping method and credit card and I will, after verifying wonership, process your order.
Thanks for your suggestion. Have a good time with it.

Greg, I'm going to EMail your letter to Mark Burton, who has done most of the recent notation programming. I'll get beack to you ASAP. /m
Good news! We're coming out with a Windows product line as well.

Jeez Louise!
Paul, I forwarded your message to Dave Miller, one of Media Madness's authors. Expect a reply shortly. /m
Please do. Your hardware comes with a warranty. If experience any more probkems, please contact us directly; we'll be happy to solve your problem or replace if necessary.
Dear Julio, I spoke to one of our engineers here and he'd like a little more information: In what way are the patches incorrect? Are they playing the wrong sounds or are the sounds out of tune? Where do you experience interrupted notes? In SuperJAM! or the MIDI File Player?…
Ok, glad to know it isn't Pro 2.0 that's causing the problem. I look forward to seeing those other files. /m
Gotta keep you on your toes! …m
Dear Paul, Thank you for these reports. I sent your letter to Engineering. They requested that you send those IFF slide via EMail, so that they can test them. The interlace problem is a new one. We'll call Inovatronics and see what we can learn. /m
Dear Milke, I will personally see to it that you receive your Qnotes! (And I'm saying this in front of milli0ons of people…) Melissa
Yes, you can print our sheet music, as well as export the notation to a paint program for "tidying up." Bars&Pipes Professional 2.0 lists for $429. If you own another music package, we offer a competitive upgrade $225. Call 404-215-0212 for more details. Melissa
Dear Paul, I've EMailed you a new serial number which will do the trick. Sorry for the inconvenience! Melissa
Thanks, Tom!
I talked with Todor about your problem. He indicated that TPP1 will not work if you have the "regular" MIDI In loaded. Do you have this Tool loaded? Please let me know. /m
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm… Let me check that out. I have a TPP here in our studio.
Bars&Pipes Professional 2.0 is now shipping! We have thousands of orders. (Hundreds are going out each day, so please be patient.) /m

Bars&Pipes 2.0
Message #27043
I forgot how to spell my name. Anyway, my account will say my name instead of Blue Ribbon from now on. /m
Dear Don, Thank you for your observations on the One-Stop Music Shop. You'll be pleased to hear that we've completely writeen the LoopBock software. I've uploaded to the MIDI library in the Forum. Melissa
Andy, Have you made any progress with your JV-880 driver? You say you are receiving checksum errors? That must mean that you are "testing" the driver, in otherwords you are using the MIDI menu 'Get from Synth…' option. What happens when you try to get data from within the Driver…
Dear Patrick, First of all, thank you for purchasing so many of our products. I appreciate your comments and observations. I would be happy to send you a copy of Bars&Pipes Professional 2.0 when we release it. If you wouldn't mind, please EMail me your address so that I can…
Andrew, I've just sent EMail to Annette Crowley, so that she could answer your question. Help is on the way!
Master Parameters! Good idea… Melissa
It would be somewhat difficult to import files into SuperJAM!, since it composes based on musical information, such as chord, tempo, and key, instead of actual MIDI data. Nonetheless, I will happily send your suggestion on. Melissa
One-Stop Presets and ROM
Message #25841
I've uploaded a file called OSMS.txt that contains a listing the One-Stop Music Shop Presets, Drum Kits and ROM Samples. Melissa
Dear Howard, Bars&Pipes Professional 2.0 includes dozens of new Tools and Accessories. Melissa
Dear John, I'll upload a Patch List as soon as I can. You can use the One-Stop Music Shop without using Bars&Pipes Professional, by either: – using the included LoopBack software, which allows you to drive the card via its MIDI interface, or – using the ARexx-controllable MIDI file player,…

SuperJAM!/B&P Pro use
Message #25767
Dear Craig, At this time, you cannot use the Song Parameters with SuperJAM! This is because, the Song Parameter feature was written long before SuperJAM! I'll pass your suggestion onto R&D, though. Thanks, Melissa
Dear Howard, Thank you so much for your support. I'm thrilled to hear that we're meeting your expectations. I know you'll be pleased with Bars&Pipes Professional 2.0. Again, thanks… Melissa
Dear Paul, We certainly weren't trying to mislead you in any way. The Quarter Notes are written and printed several weeks in advance. As such, there was no way to definitively comment on the status of Bars&Pipes Professional. We feel strongly that we cannot release the program until it has…
First of all, the One-Stop Music Shop sounds increadible! It supplies 16-bit digital, 32-voice multitimbral stereo audio, an extra MIDI interface, extensive editing software, a LoopBoack program, SuperJAM! and Bars&Pipes Pro hooks and more! You do not need to double up anything to get increadible audio. You cannot record your…
Dear Patrick, Thank you for allowing me to repsond to your concerns. As I said to John Pendergrass, the enhanced and updated Add-on Series Tools are only a small part of what makes Bars&Pipes Professional 2.0. I realize that you may own earlier and less-capable versions of these Tools, but…
Dear John, I'm pleased to hear you were treated well by our sales staff. We believe and always have believed that our customers are our #1 priority. Although we have included updated and enhanced versions of Tools from some of our earlier Add-ons, they are but a small addition to…
We had an unexpected problem with the output of our documentation. I apologize for any delays. Nonethless, I know you'll be pleased with the outcome. Melissa
SuperJAM! 1.1, which replaces version 1.0c, includes the following new additions: Stereo TurboSounds Two-octave Chord design and playback Split chords with Bass on "the bottom" and the other instruments "on top" Graphical volume and pan mixing Multiple grooves per Style Existing Styles enhanced to support multiple grooves Improved interface design,…
Dear Bob, Please call Kathleen Delling-Eiselt at 404-315-0212. She's our Director of Sales and Service. I'm pretty sure she's offering an upgrade special. Melissa
Dear Bill, We'd be happy to assist! Please call our Customer Service dept at 404-315-0212 X1161 and explain you situation. If you can demonstrate that you just purchased (or in your case, received) SuperJAM!, then we'll be happy to supply your upgrade free of charge. Melissa
