What is Jamahook?
The Jamahook Offline Agent is an AI-powered plugin designed for music producers to find perfect sound matches from their own local audio libraries without relying on cloud services. It automatically scans, classifies, and indexes audio files from specified folders, making forgotten samples, loops, instrumentals, and stems easily discoverable. By listening to the current project in your DAW, it suggests rhythmically and harmonically compatible elements that fit seamlessly into your track.
Key features include three simple steps: indexing local files, selecting local matching in the plugin settings, and getting instant matches. It supports powerful filtering by instrument, mood, genre, and groove similarity, with automatic pitch shifting to match keys. Compatible with any VST or AU DAW, it supercharges creativity by enabling drag-and-drop integration of recommendations directly into projects.
This tool is ideal for music producers with large personal collections who want to rediscover hidden gems, streamline workflows, and avoid hours of manual searching. Whether working with 10,000 files or an entire library, it provides lifetime access through one-time purchases, ensuring privacy as all processing stays local on your machine.

Frequently asked questions about Jamahook
How do I use the agent?
Add folders containing audio files to the Jamahook Agent; it automatically scans, classifies, and indexes them to your matching database. Then, in the plugin’s match settings page, set source to 'Local Matching' and let it find matches from your library.
Is there a renewal fee for the offline agent?
No renewal or recurring fee; once you buy a license, you get lifetime access to the offline agent and local matching service.
Can I upgrade to the Pro plan if I buy Basic now?
Yes, upgrade anytime by paying only the price difference between Basic and Pro plans through your account on the web portal at vst.jamahook.com.
I have a very large library of sounds, will the agent support it?
Pro version supports unlimited sounds; matching takes longer based on indexed loops, but handles entire collections.
Does Jamahook store my loops when I'm matching locally?
No, none of your local sounds reach servers during local matching; everything processes within your machine.
What are the three steps to use Offline Agent?
1. Index local audio files by adding folders in the agent. 2. Select 'Local Matching' in plugin settings. 3. Let the plugin analyze your project and find matches.
What DAWs is it compatible with?
Compatible with any audio software supporting VST or AU interfaces; AAX planned for future release.
Does it require organizing sounds beforehand?
No need to organize; AI classification service indexes and labels your entire library automatically before matching.

Matches loops, samples, instrumentals, stems, and other audio content rhythmically and harmonically from your local folders.
