Calm Jam

Jam tools

The jam amp

Pick any track, slow it down in steps of five without changing the pitch, and loop the part you are practising. The player at the bottom keeps going when you change page.

Loop a section

No loop set

Speed

Slowing down keeps the pitch. Press Set A and Set B while the track plays to loop that part. Keys and BPM are estimated by software from the audio. They are right most of the time, but check them by ear before you rely on them. Tracks may also sit a little sharp or flat of standard tuning.

Speed

Turn the speed knob, press a speed button, or tap the speed pill in the player. 100 to 50 percent, pitch stays the same.

A–B loop

Press Set A where the section starts and Set B where it ends. The first time, the track loads fully so the loop is exact. Clear removes it.

Keyboard

Space plays and pauses. On a knob, use the arrow keys. Home and End jump to the lowest and highest settings.

New to jamming?

Read how to jam along with a backing track, then try the Soundcheck set. If you are not sure of a key, find it by ear.
