New Feature!

Incorporated Analog Compressor The Jam X's built-in analog compressor breathes new life into the jam family, offering a total sonic experience that no other interface in its category can match. With three presets to choose from that vary in application depending on input gain, the Jam X will provide endless inspiration for your clean tone aesthetic explorations.

Turn up the volume knob! Headphones or speakers.
Whether you want to record your guitar to an orchestra in your favorite app or stream music, the Jam X's output is one way to dramatically improve the quality of your audio playback. With sampling rates up to 96 kHz and plenty of headroom to spare, the Jam X delivers remarkably clear sound. It can also drive your headphones or powered speakers just fine.

Blend Mode: Never Lose Track of the Beat The beat is the heart of music. But if latency occurs and the play and the beat don't match up, you'll lose your edge. In such cases, use Blend mode to monitor the input signal directly. If you want to hear only the sound of the amp simulator, turn off Blend mode. This process takes only one click.

Ins and Outs: Flexible Connections Jam X is designed to accept any input you can imagine, from high-impedance instruments like guitars and basses, to low-impedance instruments like synths and keyboards, to acoustic instruments with pickups. The Jam X is the perfect audio interface for recording, inputting performances, and monitoring.
