That's an important part of making Jammit a whole product complete unto itself given that all sorts of transcriptions of varying levels of quality can be found online.

#AWE JAMMIT WINDOWS#
In June, Jammit made multiple announcements including a Windows version in addition to previous releases for Macs and iOS devices. While that seems entirely fair in this case, the early days of compact discs and later of ringtones are especially strong examples of premium pricing based on new technology that actually costs less than earlier forms to produce or that even provide snippets of songs in a new context. The pricing is clearly reflective of both tech development and licensing terms and may even be a bit low but it's also a reminder that when you take a song and make it available in a different form of media or on a different tech platform you can often charge more per song than the song itself would normally cost. Most individual Jammit tracks appear to be priced at $2.99, some a bit higher with sale tracks at $.99 or $1.99. You can then isolate each instrument and the vocals on the track but, most importantly, you can play along with your chosen instrument following the standard notation or tablature.Īs noted in a press release, Jammit is a product of "five years of development, near-impossible licensing obstacles and an extended beta period that yielded three industry awards." Given the fact that they use master tracks for their songs, you can bet those licensing terms were onerous. You buy instrument or vocal-specific versions of a variety of rock tracks from acts such as Alice Cooper, Boston, Anthrax, Kiss, Lamb of God, Nirvana and other arena acts. That would certainly fit its use as a rock-focused educational tool. I wasn't that surprised to hear that their best sellers are 30 to 40 years old though I bet Nirvana also does well.
#AWE JAMMIT SOFTWARE#
Jammit's an impressive software achievement and also a rather impressive feat of licensing but also feels a bit old-fashioned.
