Creating your own sounds
How to create your own sounds
You can create a sound in either of two ways. You can choose an existing
preset program that’s close to the sound you want, and then edit the pro-
gram as necessary. Or, you can create your sound “from scratch,” starting
from a “blank” state.
How a guitar program is structured
The effect section of the JamVOX software is broadly divided into effect
routing, amp/cabinet control panel, and effect control panel
Routing includes the tuner, pedal effect 1, pedal effect 2, amp/cabinet,
noise reduction, modulation effect, delay effect, and reverb effect. For
items other than the amp/cabinet, you can drag and drop them to freely
change the way in which they’re connected, to remove them from or add
them into the routing line.
In JamVOX you can use this effect routing area, amp/cabinet control
panel, and effect control panel to edit the sound of the amp and effects.
Creating a sound by editing a preset program
If you want to create your sound by editing an existing program, choose a
program that’s close to the sound you want, and then edit the amp and
effect parameters to create the desired sound. For example, you might
start with a modern crunch sound, and raise the gain to create a contem-
porary lead sound that’s louder with a more emphasized mid-range.
HINT: Even if you exit the JamVOX application during your editing, the
edited state of the program can be recovered the next time you
start up the application (☞“Startup” on page 35).
Creating a new sound
Here’s how to create a sound from scratch.
1 Choose Initial Program from the popup menu or from the library.
2 In the amp/cabinet control panel located below the effect routing, use
“AMP” to select an amp model.
Click the displayed amp model name to see a catalog, or use the ππ

buttons to select an amp model. The design of the panel will
change depending on the amp model you select.
You can also double-click the amp displayed in the effect routing, or
click the amp/cabinet name and choose an amp model and recom-
mended cabinet from the catalog that appears.
For details on the types of amp model, refer to “JamVOX Effect
guide” (PDF).
If you don’t want to use an amp model, turn the BYPASS switch
(located at the left of the amp model name) off so that the indicator is
dark.
