Line 6, Inc. Key Developments

Line 6, Inc. and Jammit, Inc. Partner to Deliver the Guitar Jam-Along Experience for iPad(R) and iPhone(R)

Line 6, Inc. and Jammit, Inc. have partnered to create the ultimate guitar learning, jamming and recording experience for iPhone and iPad. The companies have collaborated to create a system that allows the guitarist's sound to instantly match that of the guitar part played on the original song. By integrating the Jammit software with artist sounds and a premium digital interface, the experience of playing with the original master recordings is taken to a nearly magical level for players of all abilities and styles. Jammit is the first music software to isolate individual audio tracks within original multi-track master recordings. Jammit allows musicians to learn, jam and record along with their favorite songs as played by artists including Rush, Maroon 5, Bullet For My Valentine, OneRepublic, and many others. Each guitar, bass, drums, keyboard or vocal track can be isolated for closer scrutiny, looped for extended practice or slowed down to a comfortable pace for beginning players. The Line 6 Mobile In digital interface connects a guitar to the iPad or iPhone, and also unlocks added functionality within the Jammit app. When Mobile In is connected, Jammit will load amp and effect sounds custom matched to the song, automatically changing the sound when appropriate as the song plays.
