what do different colours on voice recorder mean in jjs

In JJS, the voice recorder’s colors usually mean the throw’s effect changes: red is the default, yellow/orange forces targets downward or crushes them, and green launches them upward or pushes them away.

Quick meaning

  • Red: normal/default effect.
  • Yellow/Orange: downward slam or crush effect.
  • Green: upward launch or push-away effect.

How it’s used

Players say you can change the color/effect while holding the voice recorder, then each color alters what happens when you throw it. A Reddit post also describes the same idea with the special action changing the output, and a separate post says pressing the relevant key cycles the light.

Small caveat

This looks like community-discovered behavior, so the exact wording can vary a bit between posts, but the practical takeaway is the same: the color tells you which throw effect you’ll get.

TL;DR

Red = normal, yellow/orange = down/crush, green = up/push.
