JamLab is a combination of hardware and software that will turn your computer into an excellent rehearsal and performance tool for electric guitarists. The compact JamLab interface connects easily to your computer via a simple USB connection, and features a 1/4” input for your guitar and 1/8” headphone/line output. The included GT Player Express software features amp simulation and virtual effects boxes, and the ability to play WAV and MP3 files and loops.
JamLab is a very simple and economical way to simulate guitar amplification, and a great way to practice playing along with music. The software simulates a guitar amplifier and includes models of effects pedals for noise gate, distortion, equalizer, chorus, delay and reverb – each with presets to get you going and easily return to your favorite sounds. You can also play standard audio files and can even slow them down – perfect for practicing and easy learning. WAV drum loops from M-Audio's ProSessions Sound and Loops Library are included – you can load them into GT Player Express in any order for an instant custom drum machine to jam with. Drum songs are also provided as MP3 files.
While we wouldn't produce a Grammy winning album with it, the sounds you get are definitely good enough to practice along with, and jam away to your heart's content. The ability to load any MP3 or WAV file and slow it down is extremely useful, especially when trying to learn fast and difficult passages. Another great thing about this product is you don't have to use its software exclusively; you can use the hardware interface with any recording software you want.
