Digitech JamMan Review

The DigiTech JamMan Looper Pedal is a very nice looper pedal. It let's you store your loops on a Flash card, very handy.

See my JamMan Video Example

The JamMan comes with a 128 Megabyte memory card, which is good for 24 minutes of recording, but you can get memory cards up to 2 GB, which lets you store 6.5 hours of audio. The JamMan stores the audio in high quality - 44.1 16k CD quality.

It is easy to record, playback, and overdub loops or single phrases with the JamMan. One thing that is really handy is the undo feature. You know how it's easy to make a mistake while recording something? Well, just press down a button on the JamMan and it removes the last recorded overdub. Very handy!

You can also preload the JamMan with your own loops. Just hook it up to your computer with a USB cable and transfer your favorite drum loops or backing tracks.

A looper pedal like the JamMan is great for practicing. You record a chord progression or bass line, and you can of course add more layers of chords or sounds if you want. Then you can practice scales or solo improvising. Great for getting better timing. The ability to jam with yourself for until morning comes if fantastic fun, and the JamMan (or any good looper pedal) may be most the useful stompbox you can possibly buy.
