## What is Jamm Pro?

Jamm Pro is the anticipated evolution of Ninja Jamm, the original touch controlled beat app. 

Aphex Twin: "Sick"

Easy to use but deep, Jamm Pro includes Ninja Jamm users most requested feature: the ability to load your own samples. As well as immense performance power, it’s packed with pro features and new ideas e.g. its modular synth-like patching capabilities. 

Jamm is a unique instrument. Loaded with free content and killer presets, you'll be amazing yourself with the music you create from the moment you press Play.

KEY FEATURES

- Load your own samples via iOS Files app, AirDrop and Cloud storage.

- Record in via Mic, Soundcard, Inter App Audio. Audiobus/AUM are supported, giving you access to the extensive range of iOS IAA apps like drum machines and synths to work with Jamm.
		
-Multitrack Stem recording: Transforms Jamm Pro into a production tool: recordings are saved with all channels individually recorded. You can then load these into an editor/DAW such as Ableton, Logic or Pro Tools to work on further.

-Multi-touch tip control: Use small finger movements to simultaneously and expressively control multiple FX at once. 

Individual per channel FX: 5 Distortion/Crush units, 5 Filters, 5 Delays, 5 Reverbs, 5 Sidechains. All with full recallable control.

64 Total Recall Patches: instantly Store and Recall the total state of what you’re doing with 64 Patch memories. 

-In-app help: Access help overlay screens from wherever you are to explain all the page’s functions… no need to stop to read and dig into the manual!

-Coldcutter module: Buffer shuffle and modulation matrix for sophisticated beat manipulation. Users can trigger automatic call and response between channels, algorithmic evolutions of samples and modular synth-like patchable modulation sequencers.

-Sub-bass module: Automatically generate super heavy bass kicks and basslines from drum samples — a feature dril fans will adore.

-Action Sequencer: Record and playback your touch gestures, build up complex sequences, very powerful.

-MIDI input: MIDI Learn allows easy connection of MIDI hardware to trigger and control Jamm Pro.

-Slice sequencer: Unique and highly interactive feature allowing users to simply draw on the screen to restructure any sample.

-Smart pitch bends: Change the pitch of any or all of the channels in real-time to inspire musically apt progressions.

*Please note Jamm Pro is a very powerful app and will perform best on newer devices. The iPad Pro is the ideal device for the best experience with Jamm Pro.

THE STORY
For Ninja Tune co-founders Coldcut, known for their innovations in DJing, Remixing, Production and Live Performance, Jamm Pro has been 25 years in the making. Coldcut have been honing it in their live show and recently creating music with it.

Designed by Coldcut’s Matt Black with the aim of creating their ultimate electronic music instrument. As users experiment and develop ideas, they can save them as their own patches, which can be used to quickly build up stages of a song, structure a live performance, or used as a sketchpad.

The app features exceptional and extensive modulation and patching capabilities, the likes of which have never been seen in a sample app before. Equipped with four main channels, each with nine sequencers — six modulation sequencers, a slice sequencer, a pitch/reverse/drill sequencer and a gate sequencer — and up to 64 patches per set, Jamm Pro allows for a possible 2,304 sequencers per Sound Set in the app.

As well as production, Jamm Pro has been designed as an instrument for playing live sound, drawing on hiphop DJing and timing. With expressive touch control, the app facilitates direct engagement of hand-eye-ear coordination through ‘tip control’. This innovative feature tracks small finger movements that can be used to sensitively control various effects. 

And yes Ableton Link is included!

### 5/5 — It’s incredible

*2025-12-30, version 1.6.1*

I don’t know why - probably because I’m not focussed on beat type production - but I had deleted this years ago without exploring it.  This was a huge mistake as it’s quite incredible - at first the UI looks intimidating, but you quickly get to grips with things.  Within a few minutes you’re lost in it and somewhere new - it’s a bit like an MPC plus the fx of an OP-Z plus the step triggers of a Digitakt, but also like none of these and completely it’s own thing. it feels quite organic and all I am left with is a wish I hadn’t slept on it for so long. Get it.

### 3/5 — Please make compatible with Bluetooth headphones

*2025-04-23*

Then it would be perfect!

### 4/5 — non riesco a creare le mie tracce

*2025-02-21, version 1.6.1*

bella ma non riesco ad importare i miei file audio,bisognerebbe mettere anche in mp3

### 5/5 — Impressive

*2024-12-09, version 1.6.1*

After writing this review the app refused to launch. 
When going to App support on the web a similar thing happens with a never ending progress circle. 
Hopefully this is just a temporary problem, but I’ve had to dip and reinstall in hopes of it booting on a clean install - nope. 
So I’m just kinda waiting for a response now after upgrading. 

This review still stands as long as it’s fixed.  🦙🪽

I had no idea there was an app out there that was as engaging and flexible as any other, if not more so, regarding music production. You’re going to want to IAP the ability to bring your own audio in if you’re serious about music, but that doesn’t mean you can’t learn the UI with readymade packs. The only down side I have experienced so far is the volume of file sizes that can accumulate while noodling around. It quickly shot up to my 3rd or 4th largest app, which is kinda crazy, but understandable and I do think the way it handles audio files - organizes and presents them - is pretty clear and had some thought put into it. I’m currently dumping and reinstalling because it no longer seems to want to boot up - it just sits on the full screen icon (which is a cool icon). I’m not losing anything by having to reinstall other than time. 
I’m not one for manuals - I like to see what happens when things are tweaked. But there’s enough going on here that it’s not like a simple MPC approach and the manual is pretty straight forward if you get stumped. 
By far the most fun I’ve had in awhile with iPad audio production. Great job and thank you to the Dev.

### 1/5 — Мошенничество!

*2024-02-03, version 1.5.4*

Не советую загружать эту прогу она не работает так как надо без покупки основного приложения которая стоит дорого плюс куча бестолковых доп покупок короче если бы честно сразу установили цену за приложение а потом говорили  за встроенные покупки можно еще понять а так это шляпа намерено водит в заблуждение.

### 1/5 — GOOD LUCK

*2024-01-06, version 1.5.4*

I wasted a couple of hours trying to get this app to download the free packs and the one that I paid for but it just got stuck over and over when the downloads were almost complete. I had the same issue on a gen 5 with 128 gig and an air 2 with 64 gig. Both iPads had plenty of space left. I tried reinstalling but no luck. I looked at the faq advice on the website.. no help at all. I did like a couple of the packs but found the interface very confusing and not intuitive so probably no great loss. Took my money though. Someone wrote that this is what Blocs should have been. Really? That is the most inspiring app that I have ever used and I have been doing this for a long time. Blocs may have less features but nothing compares for getting ideas going and if you jam on the sections buttons it is like nothing else out there. If only you could record those jams via midi.   I really had high hopes Jamm pro after reading the other reviews but maybe it needs a more modern iPad. If so it needs to say so on the App Store.

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2023-11-06, version 1.5.4*

I’m really enjoying this app

### 5/5 — Шикарная прога! Auv3!!!?!?!

*2023-07-03, version 1.5.3*

Но так ее толком пока не попробовал — iPad mini 2 не тянет ее , трещит сопротивляется !\

### 5/5 — The interface that was always absent with playing & making “electronic” music

*2023-04-24, version 1.5.1*

Immersing fun to play with & a powerful emulator/controller that gives an extensive way to manipulate & play rhythmical patterns of sounds, instruments, or stems & elements you’ve made in a way that daws & turntables/djay software struggle with as being designed to be controlled by mouse or midi controllers is limiting to where you can set up kit like that etc, either as music editor or as a live performance device it seems already set up to make & perform music on the move & has the advantage of live performance style modulation of elements in real time as a standalone instrument as they unfortunately never made a tb303 etc that was portable & could be held as an instrument, probably genuinely only limited by your imagination, creativity & lifes time constraints, looking forward to seeing what I can do with it

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-04-05, version 1.5.1*

Jamm pro can be used for live performance or (I think) well useful to chop samples and edit for productions. I think recording in to.  DAW works but could Also be a great 4 track sequencer. Designed by a genius!
