Paper Jamz Amp Mod

[artifus]

got a pete the repeat talking parrot for 99 cents too , hmm . i wonder if this could be easily hacked into a device that would play actual ( albeit down sampled ) guitar notes , use it in place of the quick and dirty test osc .  either that or some sort of looper , but .... can o worms ...

google 'voice recorder hack mod' for further ideas.

they have these for 99 cents at my goodwill , so i  couldnt resist picking one up . thinking it may also work well to amplify a chip synth , like a nic collins deal / 555 opto theramin or something like that . advantage is its size .

off topic i have been finding belkin apc units for att uverse , they have battery back ups they install for the phone system , i have gotten 3 so far , they usually have a GOOD 12 volt sla cell inside ,  you can test / charge the cell with the unit , it also works well as a power supply .

these are perfect for larger " mini amps" in my opinion , anyway . and for 5 - 10 bucks a pop ,  not too shabby of a deal .

They're pretty good as long as the input signal is high enough. Great for anything capable driving headphones like an mp3 player or headphone amp.. No good for low signals like a raw guitar or the output from guitar pedals.   See PRR's first comment on page 1.

I just wanted to follow up for completeness and say that I built an iRig clone and it works great with the PaperJamz amp. I'm really amazed at the quality of the sound I get with a cheap cardboard toy, a handful of components, the right cable, and an iPhone (not cheap, but I've got it for other purposes anyway, so why not use it to its fullest extent?).

Here's the iRig clone thread:
