What JC-120 Jazz Chorus does
The developer states that the software is modeled on the original hardware, with the stereo solid-state circuitry credited as a large part of the amp’s signature sound. Two independent channels of the original amp are replicated, and multiple instances can be loaded in one session.
The installer often arrives as a .rar or .iso, sometimes as a repack, and the keygen or serial key is the string most often typed next to the name, with a working serial or a free serial among the searches.
Key features
- Dimensional Space Chorus. The built-in Dimensional Space Chorus is the stereo chorus the developer names as the core of the original sound, rebuilt from the analyzed analog circuitry.
- Two independent channels. The software replicates the two independent channels of the original amp, so each side can be set separately.
- Mic type, position and room. Mic type, mic position and room ambience can be adjusted, and the developer’s graphics follow the detail of the hardware.
- Resizable interface. The high-resolution interface can be resized and is drawn from the original hardware layout.
- Presets. A set of presets covers the sources the developer lists, including guitars, keyboards and drums.
- Pedal platform use. The developer describes the tone as clean and transparent, so the software can serve as a pedalboard platform for guitar.
Compatibility
The plugin is listed as VST2, AU and AAX for Windows and macOS (64-bit), with macOS 11 and Windows 10 as the minimum operating systems.
Who it is for
The plugin suits guitarists, keyboard players and producers who want the stereo chorus and amp voice of the original hardware in a DAW, and sound designers working with electric pianos and plucked synths.
