All user reviews for the DigiTech JamMan

Everything has already been said ..

USE

After peeling the instructions (light incidentally), I came back to a very basic and spontaneous use of the object. I only use at home, at improv in unbridled solo sessions, to turn the rhythm that come with the wind and let go in improvisation. It is the spontaneous use: I do not overlay loops (overdub) or record anything in the memory of thing. The music disappears into outer space.

At most I can use the metronome to be sure you calibrate a pace a bit long. In this regard the BPM of the metronome does not go down very low. I used one for slow rhythms.

In this personal use, the Jamman gives me satisfaction, he knows how to forget. I'd rather not even think about using it on stage and / or with other musicians, it is not well-born enough to claim it. And I do not want to fight when I make music.

SOUND QUALITY

I put it at the very end loop of my Marshall JVM 205C. It is in the loop it should be, because otherwise no way to use the overdrive channel of the amp while rotating the loop in the clear (or vice versa). And it must be the end loop to retrieve the sound of all the effects placed before him.

The sound is good without being exceptional. With a tube amp and quality effects pedals, the sound of the loop seems necessarily less alive, less articulate, more compressed, more "FM radio". Again for home that does not pose a problem, although I do not spit on better sound.

For cons, the ultra positive is its perfect transparency passive position in the loop. I always leave in the same loop when I do not use it. Because it has another purpose: the same volume level between loop and switched loop bypassed. Indeed the JVM activation loop lose volume 10db (when 100% wet). Therefore the knob "Inst Level" of Jamman I use to mount the volume of the loop. Booster super transparent, I myself am very surprised.


NOTICE GLOBAL

I'm not in love with the Jamman, far from it. I quickly realized that the functionality of the device, except for the basic, could not be used in a "professional" (sound, stage, recording ..).

If you want a scene looper, so invest in a software-driven pedal noon. It is much more powerful, flexible and easy to manage once in place. If you want to record compositions, it is not with the Jamman we will. But then as a learning tool, free improvisation, exploration of the instrument, I can say in-pen-sand!

I chose the Jamman, I could take another one. They are all more or less badly pesky and not professionals. Apart from the Boomerang, which looks over the lot. I might even delay looper with Boss DD7 my pedal makes it too. When I bought the DD7, I hesitated to resell Jamman, but I did not put the DD7 end of the loop, and I was losing booster function loop of Jamman. A pedal function and cows are well guarded.

I seem to have made much progress without realizing it through the looper, simply fun to play, improvise, discover the instrument. I'm a lot more comfortable now to find my place among other musicians, and in different styles. I prefer a looper pedal a software: I like to play music off computer, free. The simple things are often the best.

yes, you can add sounds (drums, guitar, etc.) by the mac / pc, but it is a pedal that starts dating

(See if it is compatible with the new mac, pc)

Very solid pedal

-Pedal footswitch + if you want to zap loop loop + Automatic Recording

24mn-registration card included with
We can accelerate the slow song without changing the pitch
- There is a metronome bass drum and this is really good
We can connect a microphone or guitar
-99 Tracks / loops possible

UTILIZATION

I tested a few times this pedal legend that has been very popular among artists singers-guitarists

use:
it is simple, but to be really sync and on stage, I think it requires some preparation if it is the cat

SOUND QUALITY

apparently not true bypass for this model

OVERALL OPINION

I'd rather buy a pedal + simple: the new models or see other brands because in the end, I was serving not

I find it not necessary unless one is alone on stage or 2

I think there are too many features to navigate clearly

You all know the Jamman is a looper guitar pedal in mono format, with a memory as GROSSE uses compact flash cards whose storage capacity can exceed the Go
Guitar input, line input, XLR mic input, classical. Volume knob on the guitar to the mic (not the line input, note everything you'll connect it has a volume knob), volume knob for the loop.
First major flaw: it is heavy on a pedalboard is boring. Second big flaw: it uses a specific DC power supply 1300 mA, the power supply is not compatible with my pedalboard, boring too.

UTILIZATION

Left pedal: recording, playback support new, new support overdub, and so on. Can stop recording when you press the pedal or end barlines signing the chosen tempo.
Right pedal: stop, long press of the loop deletion. Supposedly tap tempo in practice unusable.
Metronome function, useful for those who use a metronome, so not for me.
Missing functions: reverse. Yes, you read well, no reverse function. The mind boggles.
The jam manager software works very well for me, the issue is very simple and very effective.

SOUND QUALITY

Good looper, I regularly read it kinda sucks the sound of the guitar because it is not true bypass, I do not hear any difference.
Rendering loop is good for my ears, especially as I am sending the signal without effects, I then processes the signal and I resample the processed signal.

OVERALL OPINION

I month. I was impressed by his strength, high quality manufacturing, huge memory it has, and the opportunity to exchange in which I had. It is an excellent tool, with the reservations above.
In total, it is not really suited to my needs because I'm just the looping / sampling live and I do not use it for its true purpose: to repeat at home.

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.

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.

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 ...

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.

Looper Sampler globally with the same ergonomics as the competing product (RC20)
The memory is expandable (CompactFlash) card book 128 MB allows 24 minutes of sample. (He swallows cards up to 2 Gb or more than 6 hours)
the samples are stored on computer via a USB port
ATTENTION unlike here LEXICON not sync noon, but the size of memory and the ability to transfer on the computer to store its audio loops directly into the JamMan
The sound is not bad with a 44.1 KHz sample rate or the competition is a 32 KHz
99 memory backup location on the map that you can see coming
plus ca al air sturdy (in case mtal)

UTILIZATION

Operation is simple (note I have been entitled to the doc in English)
Saw the ability to undo the last overdub just by pressing the pedals on the left
Saw the ability to change the preset route ca allows to have the bridge of the song to another bank and change the flight (a condition to buy the external switch) change n'tant r Ellement fact that the end of the loop that keeps the tempo.

SOUND QUALITY

No problem Quait of sound, I have a long test with my Vigier on my Fender blackface and frankly it does, much better than the competition (RC20) which tended to crush the sound of the guitar

OVERALL OPINION

I have since ... 24 h
I have compared with the RC20 and there is no picture
A bit expensive but hey it 379 just to arrive.

I think for the scne pdalier external indispensable if we want prparer loops in advance.

See other comments

UTILIZATION

Just one detail to add on what I read here: to loop live, there is a latency for the machine accesses its memory.
Specifically: not possible to record loops live if they are less than 4 seconds. Beyond that, no problem, it works as RC20. To overcome the problem: if short loop, it must be double or more, until you reach the time 4s.
To overdub, no stress.

SOUND QUALITY

See other comments

OVERALL OPINION

Strong point unquestionably the memory "scalable", 24 'original (CompactFlash 128MB) expandable to 6 hours (with a card 2 gigabytes). Added to 99 tracks (11 against the RC20), the advantage is huge.
Small retail business: pedal comes with power supply. (9V 1300mA)

For CHARACTERISTICS, others have dj parl otherwise go direct to see on the site DIGITECH. For me my first purchase of JAM MAN silent sucks since bought new pedals dfectueuse silent ... The right pedal was not working, so I was pretty AGAC .... But then the next day the store (PEDAL Paris) to me directly exchanged. In other irritations are missing any btement an ON / OFF button on the machine for arrter because it must unplug and this award is when same damage. As against it comes with the power supply, which is cool to notice the price is the least we can do (yes I know I'm a real Auvergnat ... However it has no n SERIES and therefore register it with the warranty card you wonder what to do.
Otherwise my deuxime works perfectly !!!!! And it is a joy as we shall see later.
PS: Beware the price of the Bte fell I got 319 euros for Paris

UTILIZATION

It's a fairly easy to use pedals it is a book with instructions in English but you can Tlcharger the same in the language of Molire (on the digitech site) so rolls! What is cool is there between a jack 6.5, a microphone input and audio input for connecting an MP3 or other CD player, which can be cratif.
The cool thing is that you can also vary the speed of its loops without changing the pitch by Systm against the amendment is not prcis, it would be in clear prfrable power rgler this as a mtronome ...
Otherwise it is a total happiness because you can become a whole group all by yourself. For my part I use it as tool components, so for use with live loop live edition I think it's more complicated because her curls to properly calibrate it takes a little practice.

SOUND QUALITY

For the quality of its chantillonage is quite correct (it's CD quality chatillonage), so does for models or for pleasure. What I regret from the Loop Station BOSS is that you can not read upside-down loops (but is not a function gadget ???). Boss and the mode of stopping loops supplmentaire in Fade Out and a way of loops Fade In Otherwise what is great with the Jam Man is also the USB and the fact that we can, with a 2GB card having a recording time super important. The book card can record 24 minutes, which is already well.
I use the JAM MAN with my guitar and my bass but you can plug Synth BAR, etc., which makes use super versatile. Also sold in a PDAL option slectionnner loops at the same time that you play for use live, which is well thought out.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this little bug for 2 weeks and I love it because it allows me to share a single play like other musicians taient with me, and when you want to play is 1:30 in the morning c is because the foot Dranger not need the guys to enter the beef, or annoy the neighbors, because instead of the plug into the amp you plug a headset and we are wild and distorted riffs, without the police dbarque!! I love the fact that there is a memory of 99 loops because it allows not just (too). I dplore most is the possibility can not rgler Fawn prcise tempo, it's really pnible.
Before purchasing this product I looked at the Boss Loop Station, but it has less memory capacity even with the new XL version ... And it does not possde card so we can not (I know) to increase its memory capacity.
I find this worth a cot pedals and the price is justified j'espre DIGITECH that will update the software and use a version upgrade will be available and tl loadable (yes o intrt of the USB on the machine !!!!) for the rgler dsagrement SETTING THE pace of approximation.
So much for me it is an indispensable tool and one more that I see Intrets is that doing overdubs on a loop (eg Bass and rhythm guitar) and then by connecting the loop station on a track of my home studio 12 tracks I can win one or more tracks supplmentaires (bte not is not it?)
MACHINE NECESSARY FOR ME!!
I LOVE IT!!
And no one dares to confiscate ME

Dj silent all said we will not s'tendre the top ...
9 because no one is perfect for amateur appaeril of the price is more than enough and even quite impressive!

UTILIZATION

Trs simple good use if only one is a little dgourdis and logical ... In an hour or two the bte no secrets for you: D
<p class="bbcode-cite"> Quote: <span>Just a dtail add on what I read here: to loop live, there is a latency for the machine's memory accde.</span>
Uh ... Hey Verify that you do not have a tempo run because if not flash the tempo taking the recording starts ds beginners with no lag!

Good level of manual you will most likely book in English and for non-bilingual like me it is available this address ==> ftp://ftp.digitech.com/pub/PDFs/Manuals/JamMan_manuals/JamMan_French.pdf

9 yet because nobody's perfect!

SOUND QUALITY

While talking about the sound!
You enter a loop in the spring it will bte casiment the same (if not identical) ... as simple as it has! it is even enough bleufant: S
Well must say that I use on a DFX therefore likely changes made by the JamMan disagree seen the quality of the amp but sounds good when even trs.

I put 9 the same as always ... rasion

OVERALL OPINION

I Usage requirements for 4 months or so.
Most:
- Storage card up to 2GB ...
- Sound
- Robustness (one must be able to throw without any bronchus of the 10th ...)
- The power supplies because it requires a lot of power (1.3A output)
- Surely that I forget!

The -: ...

I tried RC20XL and frankly it is far far away ... derrire all points of view!

Quality price ratio trs interesting to see the quality of the stuff provides. (270 in Germany)
It is obvious that the choice I would do and I do not understand how anyone can leave opinions like that of Florence on a machine like a franchment Exceeds me ...

Nine to go I put on 10 but dmange ...

See the manufacturer's website for technical info ...

Casing power supply and SOLID!

UTILIZATION

The configuaration gnrale is very simple and acoustic sounds as electric ...

Just be prcis in his game and for the moment dclenchement of the loop and it is in the bote ...

Personally, I use it just to be an accompaniment of guitar, or collected and the music is still there!

I have not opened the manual so imagine the simplicity of use for my type of use!

SOUND QUALITY

I try to reproduce the sound of my Taylor 612C amplifier with IBeam. Winning bet!

The sound of the good is with me and I, I do my line and I play my rhythm solo solo!!

In simplicity and efficiency of a remarkable condition of being in time ...

OVERALL OPINION

I am not satisfied with the trs looper because I was not looking and not only has a time limit and more or something else indeed ....

In short, those looking for a good looper with a neutral sound and no time limit (I speak in terms of music!)

Trs frankly a good camera, one without a fault!

A highly recommend, word of Schizophonic!

Well, as everyone has already mentioned, I will not go on, and that, this product is simple: a loop sampler controlled by foot, plus a USB port and the possibility of the map Compact Flash you want ... And the whole super strong, can jump on it without worry.
It only lacks sync MIDI and maybe a headphone output a bit more powerful.
Coupled with his pedals, it's a killing to live who knows to use it ... Anaïs Ben Ricour or are there to testify ...

UTILIZATION

Single product, well thought out ergonomics ---> use simplissimme!
You just read the manual to understand the logic of recording when there was a tempo at first, but otherwise, it just happens.
A big regret: nothing tells us that the loop is not saved before we can change the program, I did fuck a few times before I do!
On the other hand, it is primarily a tool for live, so this feature prevents to do things on the fly ephemeral ...

SOUND QUALITY

If this is an output volume is too low for my taste for my headphone, I find his nickel.
The pub on the manual loop tempos of "high quality" is frankly exaggerated, since it is pretty basic as a metronome, and more without having the opportunity to register (but the couple with a BAR and hop)

Plugged into a PA / amp, no problem, the sound that comes out is the same one that had just come back!
(Yet happy)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month, with a guitar (acoustic or electric) and a microphone.
I bought it after the concert and Anaïs Ben Ricour 6 fours, especially Ben Ricour is a real killer!
I use it mostly for the moment "notebook of ideas" and working tool solos, riffs, etc ... and very soon on stage!

I am delighted, at least, no surprises.
If it again, I ask myself Digitech laying the same with:
-A MIDI sync
One-level Undo / Redo infinite or at least greater than 5 (there is one, and it is very light)
-The ability to play loops backwards as the BOSS pass'keu it's funny

I'm sure they will release it for version 2 ...

CHARACTERISTICS to see other opinions ...

On a positive note: the USB port! CRER can own loops thanks a program, like sound editor, and swinging on the map JamMan, via usb. Deadly

Bought just over 300 of www.lapedale.com

UTILIZATION

From simple to use! The main functions are used in Manir intuitive, observing the device, you get how it works.
The manual is provided in English, but the French version is free at tlchargeable DigiTech

SOUND QUALITY

I play it with my Epiphone SG, a small 30W amp Drive, but the sound loops at the output is pretty darn similar one I returned.

No doubt can we find nuances of sounds that diffrent amps on superior quality, but for me it's nickel!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months to work for my solos, I enter my rhythm and I hit the solo, but also to type a beef alone.
Coupled with a box rhythms, the JamMan in your trensforme man band!
The overdub function (superposition of riffs recorded as and) is very simple to use: Take control of one foot!

Frankly, a good, trs good product!

Everything has been said about it

UTILIZATION

Relatively simple operation, half an hour to digest all ...
Manuel Clair can

SOUND QUALITY

The sampling is excellent: 44.1 kHz, so it's good compared to these competitors. In clean, it's perfect ... However when trying to overlay loops distorted sounds, it was still a loss. I think that unfortunately is the problem of all these loops stations ... To remedy this, I will plug my JamMan on a second amp with an A / B Box, I record the loop, I let it run, I switched to the other amp and I play my solo ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 9 months.
I love to "jam" with (the nonprofit), I love the extension of his memory with a Compact Flash card
I have not tried others, but I trusted all the opinions and reviews I have read and I am not mistaken. Luckily I did not listen because in Florence rereading his opinion, it finds problems JamMan that I have not found and it talks about the killing to come that was to be the RC 50 (on the forums for: users are wanting to write a message of discontent with Roland / Boss ??!!!???) Value / fair price as always at Thomann but still a bit expensive in our country.
I would definitely do it again this choice

See below

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, I took an optional foot pedal that allows you to change FS3X programs (for example the end of the loop, go to the next or previous or other people) and who also heads the auto record mode. 3 buttons

PC connection via USB is fine for filling the memory card and put the sounds they wish, loops, samples ... we choose the playback mode, or single loop for easy reading.

with FS3X you can configure a song, intro, verse, chorus to change when you want during the song (the JamMan still waiting for the end of the loop before proceeding to the next)

we stop, we take the loop when desired, with loops being added and the overdub function deletes or recall the last loop recorded

SOUND QUALITY

I have not pushed the volume, but in terms of a guitar played by rhythmically example I had some problems, the sound saturates very quickly. in terms of solos or votes, nikel

OVERALL OPINION

Very good item, I hesitated between the simple and bossrc20xl it, but I do not regret, memory card offers possibilities really are endless, it is simple but effective. sure, a top model would be welcome but it has something to do with this one.

Nothing to add except that mine was manufactured in China and not the United States as described below. This does not affect the quality of the machine: metal case, knobs, pedals, everything is sturdy and very well finished.

UTILIZATION

The grip of the JamMan is very easy. No need to type the entire manual before use.
It should be borne in mind that the use of a sampler requires some gymnastics. I had to train some time before caller my hair the first time. For this, the JamMan offers a number of aid: metronome, starting at the beginning of a measurement, automatic start. In short, this remark does not concern the JamMan in time but really like using a sampler that requires more rigorous rhythm.

The only criticism I can do for the height of the housing. I think a case would be more comfortable so high, especially in order to tap a rhythm with one heel on the ground: I have small feet Nothing dramatic, you get used to.

SOUND QUALITY

No complaints. I did not notice any difference between the sampled and sound "natural." Of course, the sound quality is related to setting levels of entry and exit of the JamMan. Care must be taken to be graded a level play / loop seamless and natural.
I have certainly not noticed any deterioration of sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it intensively for 3 weeks and I'm really happy.
This is the perfect companion for those who like me do not like playing alone. Even in practice, it's really nice to put a little rhythm and work on top of its range.

jfx.

So once will not hurt I&#39;ll post my opinion especially to point out a few things that would be better able to think on that machine.
No need to go back too much on what everybody know dj has undoubtedly remains probably the best pedals for this type of use (with The models of Boss competitor). Personally I have a definite preferences for the Jam Man, I tried the RC20 it dja There&#39;s a long time but the memory SETTING THE taient volumes much less specific than what is obtained with the Jam man without much to the head. But it is a crucial point for this type of machine is really apprciable (This is critical RC20 elsewhere also for the DD20 ... except for him, the sampling of the sentence is seen as a bonus that even when the basis is essentially a time limit!)
Although I do not rpandrait houses on the Jam Man I think aadja t is lower and I would not add anything (except that the criticisms I make m&#39;aprte do not invalidate the overall quality of the product).
The connection ...

first point that would be better put: That would really not t the luxury of having an out "dry out" and left a "effect" in order to spare, for example, stay tuned to the Jam Man while sending the audio loops to another strip or another amp, just to clarify his or well Sparer two (with stamps amp DIFFERENT). It is a dtail but I find a shame.
The XLR connectors ... big plus for users of Micros, I did not test this use but it&#39;s better to have an affair symtrique. Except, of course the average user will use an SM58 or any other dynamic mic on it ... but many users of sounds qute exprimentaux might logically want to use the sound concrte, looping. And while it lacks something bte: As has put in an XLR microphone jack it is unfortunate that Digitech is not thought to put a condenser microphone Phantom PSU (especially as a function AC). L is still a dtail but personally I think if the Jam man had two small dtails more I would have bought may be easier (I have seen that in the end decided not to buy my APRS tests, at least not yet). For me the sound with static t have a big big plus for what I had to do.
Last dtail still small li connectors:

The controller optional dja let shame this stuff is practically indispensable for playing live, if the setting was a little complicated ncessitent several loops. Anyway for me the will (for use other than with microphones expriemntatiosn .

So we can dplorer two things:

- That the footswitch is optional and not provided by default (and in addition it is not given), ca even seen one can understand that everyone does not forcment utility.

- But what would have t cool is it to do a simple footswitch jack a 3 point to two rather simple footswitch connection specially. It&#39;ll have enabled those of dja gnrique footswitch (such FS5U Boss), which is my case, to use to change the memory but not yet dbourser from 50 to 70 euros ( in addition also the memory card of 2GB). Well actually exploded with a cable can be run even when a footswitch to change the memory but only downwards. It is not the same when IDAL.
Dtails three that I mentioned is probably the one that seems most unfortunate because it&#39;s practically the choice of a manufacturer to force an incompatibility with the stuff that should be (they could have also put a MIDI ...). And it just for the principle drrange me. Especially since as an added control on a footswitch, an Undo function to quickly erase a loop rat would have seemed much more useful than the activation of the car boot, a little gadget my taste.

UTILIZATION

Some other points ngatifs Gnant enough in the end:

- Time stretch ... &#39;re ashamed enough even when it is dgeulasse. Phrases to work slowly picks his discman, a must, but if it is to change the tempo of a loop playing live is frankly not possible, ca DGRAD really sound too . APRS his fans and dirty "Bit Crusher" can aprcier this aspect also, as part of my "taken the microphone" I would surely be a feat, the default dtourner a machine is often INTERESTED remains that in absolute terms it is a default, and size.
Especially since you can not change the tempo of a loop being played with the feet (trs be less skillful toes and play barefoot or in socks ^ ^; with docks, you forget ...).

To drive the point I think the tempo is really trs prcis little one feels too large bearings, I t really stuck with a loop for a fairly complicated one click o t would be welcome! APRS good I went out without using the tempo at all but it&#39;s a shame to be countered t.

SOUND QUALITY

Good l no comment, except that given level, meets a pretty sound that enters the overdub seem to work well and as I said above the equilibrium level seems to me much finer that what I remember the RC20.
Last minute EDIT: rponse two comments I&#39;ve seen lower

- It is perfectly possible to do more overdubs later, usually infinite, just that ds has made one over another function Anüll no longer cancel the first. (But if we change the memory and that has saved the initial loop you will be fine).

- Other dtail: in terms of saturation imagine putting your disto BEFORE Jam man! If you use one of the amp going through an effects loop. This kind of device is put in the chain at the level of equipment delays just before the reverb. Probably people who mentioned this problem have everything right but the same precision can still be used, especially if you want to try it in a store (bring your own distortion )

OVERALL OPINION

As some of my other comments this is a clear test, but intensive. Notice hot money (but practice at home with my stuff, the best conditions, not in a store).
As I said I dj, I mainly as a comparison the RC20 and DD20. I did not look at Guitar Rig but will not be long.

To conclude ... I think that was still a bit expensive given the default few teachers and the fact that we should lengthen a little derrire for the card and memory pdalier. So mdiocre report quality price, but it is by the price apche not the same quality which is when many l.

Voil J&#39;espre that everyone will understand that I have decided to speak only of its default, has still a great product.

Owner of a Boss RC20-XL I bought a cheap Jamman
I will state here the plutt significant diffrence between the two to help those who hsitent between these two machines
The CHARACTERISTICS are quite similar if not the loop number (99 instead of 11 for RC), the recording time (16 min. .... 6.50 for RC Jamman for hours with a 2GB card) and USB connections well sr.

UTILIZATION

As a guitarist, I like simple devices and can be controlled at the foot, so these two machines are well suited me
Question use is similar: I do not have to read the user manual of Jamman to know how to use it almost like the RC (it's a bit of CLNE)
Besides the user manual EHJV srieusement on one point: the PC edition of the Compact Flash card! must be impractical to go see 'tips' of the site (then click on the tab above) to understand and to really use the machine donf
What is missing is also really a mtronome 'calibrated. I had made the remarks to the RC as the Tap Tempo is easy for a guitarist, but totally imprcis. Fortunately, there are ways to overcome this thanks Jamman Tarre with the PC edition via CF card (see below)
Battery level sound is slightly more complete than the RC, but it is not a BR intgrehlas. But again, thanks edition of the CF card, it has bearing means (see below)

SOUND QUALITY

I grateux. I do not use Live, but not at home to compose, rpter and fun, and often with headphones. So I do not judge the quality of sound that for me is completely correct on the 2
I'm not a pc edition of my pieces, I want the Plug & Play

OVERALL OPINION

All of the pedals intrt RSID in the edition (or via USB port of PC CF) CF card.
Thanks that there are ways:
- Pr-recorded loops of batteries. Wav which are the shovel on the net for example, but also bass, etc ... is a clear advantage over the RC (warning: it takes mono!)
- Pr-set the tempo of loops through the xml file! and thus to calibrate the mtronome (see how in the 'tips'). Since there are 99 loops, you can pre-program each time a dozen loops 80 bpm, 100, 120 etc ...
- And videmmment backup in reverse on a PC!
So in the end, the Jamman clearly offers more opportunities for shipping, there's no photo. It takes a can put his hands in the 'dirty' (well, the PC), but it just beginners, then you can have fun!
Now that I have, I find the RC lot behind his era as the price of the computer (cd peanuts) has not rated anything to add the possibility of Jamman .

Looper numrique ... ...
That says it all down ...
Mine is made in United States
I will plant with no nails, but must be possible, given the solid appearance of the pretty blue pedals ..

UTILIZATION

Extremely simple ...
Manuel RALIS my nickel ... I Premire correct loop 5 minutes to have APRS branch ... (Well, I show off a little: in fact 10).
For a more thorough and advanced functions, we will have to type a few pages ...
Forums on AF rpondent ALL questions you may still ask the Jamman ...

SOUND QUALITY

Trs good quality reproduction, it seems the RC 20 XL suprieure I've experienced. On an amp, is done on a console, it's really amazing ...
I use this with my hands on, first guitar, bass, percussion, vocals (gnial, we'll finally be able to Lourdes choir ..)...
Between the level of the instrument seems a little feeble, but as it is the end of the loop, I boost the signal a bit with a good qualo rgl and a roll ...
His most is its ease of use, 6 hours recording with the card adquate, its apparent strength (all mtal), but the bosses are no exception, taking XLR microphone, USB ... and edit his allowing loops, import sound files to change, etc ... I am BCAN for too little time to m'tre still considered the soft part / import. Obviously, there are banks of those type loops (sounds) that can be found in the pods, with drums, bass, i tutti quanti ...

OVERALL OPINION

In fact, the test gear is lower in long, wide and over, by people far more sophisticated than me. Trs trs trs I hsit long before making my choice. The BCAN of dpart, c'tait RC 50. Eeleven (AF member) has a standard work on it, you'll find in the forum (see the case that he spent super useful!). we corresponded extensively (thank you again, 11), this is so complex BCAN addition to its default key, I think it kills a little crativit in the sense that it is necessary to dployer Cheyenne tricks to circumvent the soft architecture of silly and start using it calmly, press 15 knobs, monitor diodes 40 000 .... And Who wants a looper that DCAL? which can not be used for MIDI? Too bad, because three loops Stereo, c'tait the Holy Grail! ! On the other ct with the pedals or tinker fsx3 home, we get things CRER relatively complex, not least, the web without making head or risk of error.
Using this stuff as part of pre-prpares loops, if not abuse of overdubs, the sound quality is largely the appointment. It's a great notebook, a working gnial, a tireless performer and can jam at three o'clock in the morning without headphone sweat the world.
200 euro, used honntement trs, the best investment I made long ago. on the other hand, error on some posts below. Yes, there's a mtronome Intgr BCAN, with the possibility of assigning sounds Different. But by no means a BAR ..
RC Test 50 with a friend who possde since its release: As 80% of users, frustrated trs gear not usable on scne serenely, break face, too much risk of error. Boss RC20 sample below, but 16 minutes in Stereo. Live, may be cooler than the JamMan, APRS reviews of the forums ... I did not find any inconvnient. The FSX 3 or equivalent is essential to make the most of.
This is BCAN gniale. I had a 15 when I was freelancing, I will be at least Setzer, now (Yeah, well, a will, j'exagre a little, well, a lot .... but will find a rhythmic plays three hours the time you tweak an ide drinking posable solo without rler ...)...
No problem, I illico Rasht. Guaranteed fun and great opportunities (one begins sampler weird stuff, like Jew's harp and castanets ...). It is all thanks sampler making micro, small cuillre has hlicon ... ) Impractical, play square calibrate the levels of micro and instrument and the (general) of the loop ... But seems to me to be a minimum (playing square) for which Super BCAN wants looper ...!
