  • Bring Your Instrument To Life: Jam X provides the easiest way to connect your guitar, bass guitar, or synth to a computer or iOS device for studio-quality sound. However, Jam X adds a new feature unmatched by competitors: an analog compressor built right in. Apogees new Jam X interface allows guitarists to plug in and get creating immediately with studio-grade sound and tone-shaping compression.
  • Built-In Analog Compressor: Choose from 3 presets that respond to how much you drive the input gain. By applying compression before your virtual amp sim, you'll find new life in your guitar tone. Or record clean. The choice is yours.
  • Never Miss A Beat: Stay in the rhythmic pocket with Blend mode, allowing you to record with absolutely no vibe-killing latency (delay). To listen exclusively through your virtual amp software, turn off Blend with a click of a button.
  • Pristine Sound Quality: Capture every detail with 24-bit/96kHz high-resolution audio.
  • Plug-N-Play: Compatible with Mac, Windows, and any iOS device. No external power is necessary.
  • Crank It Up: Plug your headphones directly into the top with the 1/8 stereo headphone input or connect to powered speakers with an adaptor.
  • Bundled Software: Ableton Live Lite & Archetype: Tim Henson Neural DSP Plugin Extended Trial.
  • In The Box: Jam X, USB C Cable, USB A Cable, Getting Started Guide, & Warranty Booklet.

    • WOW! THIS THING ROCKS!
Model: APOGEE JAM X
The first jam x I ordered was defective however I did purchase mine very soon after launch so it may just be a case of early adopter issues. Once I got the replacement I was shocked. This thing is awesome. I've put probably 30 hours through it this week and I've switched to it for my main interface. I have a scarlet solo and an audient id4. I've been maining the audient for the last year. If I had to tell you which has a better quality between the jam x and the id4 it would be tough, but the jam x has one major advantage, the analog compressor. I run several neural dsp plug-ins regularly and the jamx just makes things so much easier. All 3 presets are awesome, I can find a use for atleast 1 of the 3 in any of the tones I've used. Additionally, while I was having issues with my first jamx apogee support was fast in replying to my messages within 24 hours, they gave me good instructions and screenshots to troubleshoot things. If your on the fence thinking about buying this or not, give it a try it will surprise you. ... show more

    • Apogee Jam X
Model: APOGEE JAM X
Apogee products are high quality for sound recording or in this case as an interface for my guitar and Logic Pro X. It is the lower end of the Apogee spectrum but just a functional and seamlessly works with my Mac!

    • What’s the point of this unit?!
Model: APOGEE JAM X
I saw the asterisk that it only works with iPhone or regular iPad with an adapter cable. Rolled the dice and lost. Bought a special USB micro to lightning cable. Did not work. Took this on a long overseas trip solely so I could practice. Total fail. No store could help me, including electronics speciality stores. I gather that Apogee sells a special cable for $50 or so if you can find the link. I can’t. I already have better interfaces for use with my MacBook, without as many level setting or latency issues. Would have returned it but I’m past 30 days now since I was traveling. Not to mention my time wasted trying to get this to work. Right up there with worst money ever spent on music gadgets. ... show more

    • A great and portable interface for my Guitars
Model: APOGEE JAM X
This is such a great and portable interface for my Guitars, The sound is so clear, and the compression really helps bring out the tonal characteristics of my guitars . It’s inspiring using the Archetype Tim Henson plugin as a standalone plugin. Now I can jam and sound awesome at the same time!

    • Waste of money
Model: APOGEE JAM X
The sound quality I get from this interface is absolute garbage! Wondering if I got a chinese clone or if it's just that bad. The button doesn't seem to actually do anything aside from make lights flash and the volume input level has no tactile or otherwise way of knowing what level you are at so good luck trying to dial in the right input level. What a total waste of money. ... show more
