Dedoxinator Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I have a whole lot of jam files on SD cards. I want to convert them on my Mac to wav files. I have read about Joe Gillespie's jam2wav converter which was free. However I can not find a download of this anywhere. His site http://www.vettaville.nl doesn't seem to work anymore. Anyone know how to get the converter? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blubarb Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Use Audacity but the file needs to be changed to mono before working and saving it to wav. Converts beautifully to .wav files which can then be put onto the SD. Audacity is free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiseman1965 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 You can find a jam2wav converter here: Hispasonic.com Works fine for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herohal Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Easy way to do this is to use the Spider Jam itself. Jam files are very useful for editing on the Spider Jam. Say you make several layers and you save them as a wav. That's it then, no more editing is possible because the amp 'mixed' all of your tracks into a mono wave file. However, as a jam file, if you change your mind about a layer, you can delete it and re-do it. For me, instead of copying files onto my sd card (you have convert them to mono wavs anyhow), I just play the file while having the line out from pc into the cd input and just copy it and save it to either the sd card or internal memory. It auto saves it as a jam file, but the option is there to save as it as a wave file. The Spider Jam is NOT a home studio recorder....it's just a very good tool to capture ideas and save them cleanly. I have used Cool Edit Pro (got a freebie from a buddy) and while it is older, it is very good for making home recordings......good enough for a demo cd even. I have not done anything on guitar/recording for a few years now, but am thinking again 'bout doing something. I'll have to experiment, but for now, I don't see any real need for a jam2wave converter. The amp itself does a good job for that purpose. Just a bit more time consuming to play & copy files. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
