What is a weighted jam minute?
Jam time is not counted as raw clock time. A 4-person session uses minutes at 1×. Larger sessions consume your monthly allowance faster because more people are connected in realtime.
How Vjam works
Cloud DAW, realtime jam, and project storage — from invite to recording, with limits and features explained in plain language.
From room to cloud project
Start from a room, bring people and gear into the same session, then keep the idea moving into a cloud project without losing context.
- 1
Create or join
Start a private room or jump into an invitation from your collaborators.
- 2
Set up your rig
Load the tones, tools, and project context you need before the session starts.
- 3
Jam in sync
Play together while the interface keeps transport, people, and state organized.
- 4
Keep it in the cloud
Move from the jam into a cloud project — recordings, chat, and edits stay connected.
Good to know
Limits, features, and billing terms explained in plain language — no plan spreadsheet required.
Pro in plain language
Pro includes 1,000 jam minutes — enough for around 16 hours of standard 4-person jam sessions. Larger sessions use jam time faster.
Cloud recording tiers
Basic covers solo or light takes. Pro adds full group recording in the cloud DAW. Pro Plus unlocks advanced group workflows for heavier sessions.
Gear library limits
Free unlocks a starter amp, cab, and pedal set. Basic expands the library. Pro and Pro Plus include every amp, cab sim, and pedal currently in Vjam — Pro Plus gets new gear first.
Ads on Free
The Free plan includes ads. Any paid plan removes them — upgrade when you want an uninterrupted studio flow.
Voice, video & chat
Every plan includes voice chat, video calls (including group video), and text chat. The main Free vs paid difference here is ads — Free shows them, paid plans do not.
Cloud export / bounce
Monthly export limits apply to rendered bounces from cloud projects — not to jam time or project saves. Heavier mixdown workflows need Pro Plus.
Cloud projects & storage
Cloud projects are your shared DAW workspaces. Storage covers recorded clips, uploads, and project assets — separate from jam minutes.
Collaborators vs jam size
Collaborators are people invited to edit a cloud project. Max jam participants is how many musicians can play together in one realtime session.
Track lock
Lock a track so only you can edit it while others keep working. Useful when one person owns the bass line or lead vocal while the rest arrange.
Clip timestamp comments
Leave feedback on a specific moment in a clip — not just in chat. Available from Pro upward for tighter review workflows.
Version history
Project snapshots let you roll back changes within your plan window — from 7 days on Basic up to 90 days on Pro Plus.
Presence
See who is online in a project or studio — who's in the room, who's editing, and who's ready to jam.
Priority processing
Cloud bounces and heavy project jobs queue faster on Pro Plus. Basic and Pro use normal processing priority.
Admin & roles
Pro and Pro Plus include basic project roles. Invite collaborators with the right level of access without sharing full control.
Billing cycle
Jam minutes, cloud exports, and version windows reset each billing month. Upgrades apply immediately; downgrades take effect at the next cycle.
Realtime jam vs cloud DAW
Jam is live, low-latency playing together. The cloud DAW is where recordings, edits, chat, and exports live after the session.
Weighted jam minutes
Session size changes how fast your monthly jam allowance is used. A standard 4-person jam counts at 1×.
- 2 people 0.5×
- 3 people 0.75×
- 4 people 1×
- 5–6 people 1.7×
- 7–8 people 2.5×
