QuickSpecs:
    2 analog synthesizers with nice squidgy filters, variable note slide capability (portamento) and stereo output.

    1 multi timbral, polyphonic, analog drum machine with a selection of ten individual drums. Each drum can be replaced with a custom WAV sample of your choice! The drum machine is also stereo.

    3 digital delay units, each instrument has its own digital delay unit!

    Pattern/Loop sequencer very similar to Rebirth.

    Each tune when saved in the native .JAM format takes up just a few kilobytes, thanks to ZLIB compression technology.

    Ability to export as .WAV file for conversion to MP3 or inclusion in a larger composition. You can use your PocketPC as a 'sonic sketch pad'.

    Matrix editors for each instrument, allowing for quick and creative composition of melodies and rhythms.

    All controls use hyper intuative tap'n'drag technology. Even the LED numbers as shown on the right can be set with a quick stylus gesture, the same goes for the knobs. Nice!
Pocket Jam squeezes a powerfull techno studio into your PocketPC. The following equipment is faithfully modelled in robust and fast C++ software with assembler optimisations:
    1 x Step Sequencer with loop points and easy note editing matrixes.
    2 x Analogue Synthesizers with squidgy true analogue filters (ALA 303).
    1 x Programmable Drum Machine. Also doubles as a generic sampler (use for vocals etc).
    3 x Programmable Digital Delay Lines. (Tripped out!).
The main screen features a mini rack of virtual analogue music making instruments and a powerful step sequence with one tap matrix programming, never before has it been this quick and easy to knock up a musical masterpiece with just a few drags & taps of your stylus, feel the freedom & power! Maybe you're out and about and you think of a KILLER BASSLINE, just whip out your PocketPC and instantly transcribe it into PocketJam, no musical knowledge required, if you can hum it, you can enter it into a PocketJam sequencer matrix.

All the instruments feature tap and drag knobs and digital controls. It's as if you are holding a micro rack right in the palm of your hand, hear the analogue synths respond instantaneously to your tweaks as you tap and drag with your stylus. Evolve your riffs by playing through loop points while you move the notes around realtime, within seconds you can create hypnotizing riffs and loops.

The full version allows you to save your creations as a highly compressed .JAM file which includes any bundled sample data and all sequence data. So if you email a JAM file to a mate, he can open it and play/edit it. You are also able to export your creations as a stereo .WAV file. This WAV file can then be included in larger musical creations on your Desktop PC.
