Tweaking knobs is a time-honored tradition in sound design. Chatting with AI is revolutionizing industries. JAMtime.ai embraces both, while keeping the human firmly in the driver's seat. Build and tweak your guitar pedal with phrases as simple or technical as you like, from "brighter" to "comb filter into a plate reverb." The AI writes a real DSP graph, not generated audio. Come fall in love with the JAMtime.ai workflow. Then take it to your DAW with free VST/AU plugins for Mac, Windows, Linux.
I've been writing software for 20+ years, and playing with music my whole life. Watching how AI has revolutionized software development made me realize: Audio devices have always been knobs and menus, but musicians describe sound in words - bright, gritty, doomy, or that 80s rock ballad intro. That gap is exactly where I started building a bridge.
I built a small language (JDL) that describes a real DSP graph, taught an AI how to write it fluently, and let my C++ engine run the graph against your guitar in real time. No AI generated music here, just actual DSP code, fully editable, knob-twistable, sharable, forkable. And it runs in your browser, your DAW, and later - my forthcoming physical pedal, codename Omega FX1.
Thanks for reading! Questions and comments welcome!
Cheers,
Jeff
Genuinely cool concept — but curious, does the AI ever surprise you with a pedal chain you wouldn't have thought to ask for, or is it purely reactive to what you describe?
Like bro, this is awesome. I mean, I personally play on guitar, so it is useful for people like me. Good luck mate!
Real-time audio is unforgiving: how do you keep the experience playable (latency/CPU stability) while still allowing the AI to propose complex chains, and what guardrails do you add to prevent the classic problems—runaway gain, harsh resonances, feedback-y patches, or settings that don’t translate across rigs?
