  Characteristics

  The DigiTech JamMan is a looper pedal designed for players who want to sample and loop parts over each other. It is a digital unit that provides a great deal of control over what you can do. While most people use it for guitar, in addition to 1/4 inch connections it has an XLR mic input as well for vocals. It also has a USB port and is powered by the power supply that comes with it. It isn't a rack mountable piece of gear as it is a foot pedal.

  Utilization

  The configuration of the DigiTech JamMan isn't too hard to understand and figure out, although there are a lot of features available. The pedal has knobs for loop level, rhythm level, mic level, and instrument level, as well as a slew of buttons for various controls. It has two separate foot switches - one for recording and overdubbing and one for stop and tempo tapping. While this isn't the simplest pedal to use, its vast array of parameters make it a versatile pedal that contains a ton of great features. The manual for this pedal is thorough and is a good idea to have if you are new to this type of pedal.

  Sound Quality

  The sound of the DigiTech JamMan is fine and suitable for what it does. It will portray your samples accurately and with the same sound quality that they are played at. I've used this pedal both with electric guitar and a microphone and I'm always happy with the way things turn out. While the direct and instrument inputs will record at a much higher quality than microphone, all of the recording possible with this pedal sounds pretty good.

  Overall Opinion

  I've only had the DigiTech JamMan for about six months, but I've been very happy with it since I've had it. I love recording and looping parts over each other as its not only a cool and interesting thing to do, but helps me to write and get ideas for songs. The price of the DigiTech JamMan isn't cheap, but if you are someone who loves to loop things and will use it a lot I believe its worth the price for the serious player. This is one of the best looping pedals I've seen and used out there as I like it better than the Boss looper. I highly recommended giving this pedal a try if you are big into guitar sampling and looping.

  _yan_g_'s review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  A simple loop pedal, digital course. Storage Compact Flash card, the ability to transfer files via USB (difficult, it is better to invest in a card reader). Metronome function (capricious). Overdub.
  
  One guitar input, 1 XLR input, 1 input to (type MP3 player). I forgot outputs but at least for guitar amp :)

  Utilization

  Use, blah ... It does not record long pieces (a few minutes by taking maximum - this is for loops). The tap tempo is a phenomenal vagueness, it is very difficult to obtain a desired tempo metronome: (
  
  I am not able to transfer files from my PC to the card by plugging in USB. The software provided is done wrong, it is easier in my opinion to invest in a card reader Compact Flash.
  
  Apart from that it does its job.

  Sound Quality

  Sound ok.

  Overall Opinion

  I used it regularly for a few years to work improv. For what I was doing ok.

  sigmunfred's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Very good product"

  Characteristics

  See previous opinions

  Utilization

  Very simple config, XLR microphone handy for instrument input jack, a mini-jack for an mp3 to style mecteur to work on pieces.
  
  Very clear and comprehensive manual.
  
  In terms of making loop, well, it takes practice but once you get there it's great.
  
  Ah yes, the optional footswitch is almost essential to move from one memory to another. editing is super simple and very well explained in the manual.

  Sound Quality

  The sound quality is very good. Can independently adjust the level of rhythm, or the loop of what we play live: practice!

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for 4 years, especially as mobile recorder to sleep there with ideas for my songs and my songs to rehearse alone.
  
  I have not tried other models but this one suits me.
  
  I just regret that it is mono.
  
  So I think investing in a JML2 soon but if it does not exist, I would do this choice without hesitation.

  a_meursault's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " a working machine ..."

  Characteristics

  look elsewhere for the features ...
  
  
  
  there is a loop ...

  Utilization

  relatively simple, it is still necessary to dwell a little on the manual, which is very clear ...

  Sound Quality

  transparent enough ...
  
  
  
  you can adjust the volume of the loop, and the signal at the entrance ... practice ...
  
  
  
  The flaw is that it does not take too short loops, me three seconds I would say ... it's a bit boring but good just repeat the riff ...

  Overall Opinion

  for now it is a pure work tool ... I use it sometimes repeat that I am alone with the drummer, just to find second scratch for some songs and "facilitate" the life of another guitarist ...
  
  
  
  but still I plan to use it one day in a formula duo guitar / drums ...

  pinkbono's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Very good, but tone sucker ..."

  Characteristics

  Looper pedal digital double.
  
  Input jack mono, mono output jack.
  
  XLR microphone input.
  
  I bought mine with an additional footswitch FS3X.

  Utilization

  Easy to use if one is a looper function, the rest must fiddle and it's not always instinctive.
  
  Two actions in addition to the looper has imperatively set correctly, the input gain and the level of dubbing, easy but must be done carefully so feedback and spare breath.

  Sound Quality

  The tempo change post dubbing sounds bad, we forget.
  
  The looper is excellent and makes what you give ... And it's that will tickle the most demanding because the Jamman is not true bypass. The sound then passes through these channels and the Jamman acts as a tone sucker is light, but ca (me) shit.
  
  Of course you will not hear anything if you have a solid state at the end of the string, but you apprcierez least if you fight and pay for the purity of your sound.
  
  I have been slow to accept it, but before the undeniable usefulness of this looper I chose to isolate it in a loop mechanical true bypass and inside the loop of my amp while the chain end . This way I can simply disable the loop mechanism for recovering from my original.
  
  I will make a loop pedal a more specific term ...

  Overall Opinion

  I got mine for five good years, it has its faults (see above) but I am generally satisfied and does not change, the contrast of a Boss RC-20 which turns after two weeks.
  
  It is primarily a looper and not a multi-effects, it is convenient, efficient and easy to use when one is confined to its basic function, and that's what I did. I dub bass, overdub a rhythmic stacks qq loops in the same vein several fatherly in sequence, then I'm happy playing freely jumping from a paternal to the other with the help of the indispensable footswitch FS3X (to buy separately).
  
  A repeat now I would take the new model incorporates the additional footswitch.

  Overall Opinion

  I use the 2-man jam:
  
  - Record rhythm parts and then ask solo parts: it is perfect for that, we can make improvisation quickly
  
  - For components, it allows to establish a piece quickly and you can Save about 45 minutes with the original card with good sound quality (of course it does not replace a home studio but for the first jets c ' is not bad)
  
  This robust and practical, no complaints!

  booba 46's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " it sounds, it s simple and c is robust!"

  Characteristics

  see the features on the Internet, he presented him better than me!
  
  everything can be stored on card and put everything on the computer via the card or directly on the Internet.
  
  
  
  can also serve as a live recording with a microphone connected!

  Utilization

  use very very simple! ...
  
  some pressure on the pedal "tempo" to prepare the tempo of the song, I start the pressure recording boucle.une further pressure on the pedal even allows you to add "phrasing" in the same loop, and a pedal to stop for stop everything! ... is simple.
  
  manual and more than clear enough. (I've never opened !...)
  
  s ideal to lead riffs on his own accompaniment.
  
  a knob to change the patch (there are 99 !...). there is an option to change pedalboard patch.

  Sound Quality

  I think the sound quality is again true to the original. (Not the same for all other products of this type ...)
  
  there is a line-in, very convenient to loop what you want ...
  
  input, output, volume .... everything is ... but one stereo input and stereo output ...
  
  I utlise with my fifty fifty and Triax for kidding, but the rest mono jamman !....

  Overall Opinion

  no complaints except for those using a stereo system ...
  
  for live use c is feasible but I am not my attempt.
  
  with my system, I would take today's new JamMan stereo that came out!
  
  voili voilou!

  Jahkal's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Rather mixed"

  Characteristics

  This is a looper / sampler that can repeat indefinitely with a recorded sample, including a guitar.

  Utilization

  Pretty simple with the manual. Getting started is fast.

  Sound Quality

  I use it with my guitar and also to swing sequences in pieces (aircraft noise, screams, ...). The problem with this latter use is that the memory is too tight.

  Overall Opinion

  I sold because not enough memory and not enough use. I wanted to use it with my group, but this assumes that the drummer is métronimique, which was not the case.
  
  The rhythms found on the pedal really are not that great.
  
  
  
  I bought the little sister jamman solo. The memory is expandable with an SD card. Jam Manager software can handle it with your PC via USB port. But the solo is more difficult to handle.
  
  
  
  I also advise to take these pedals with the footswitch to move banks. We can also make one by typing in DIY jibhaine on google. There are photos and drawing. I did, it's pretty simple and I'm not pro yun welding.
