CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
HUGE LET DOWN!! i really wanted to love this feature filled "beauty" but it's FATALLY FLAWED! -
hello.. i've had my jamman for about 6 days now and i've been getting some great use out of it.. i love all the features and it seems like a pretty awesome beast.. that's why it makes me sad to say i have to return it! i bought it for LIVE looping and so far it's been very unreliable..
so i have a bunch of beats stored that i made on some drum machines... i start to play over them and i do end up looping quite a few layers (bass, guitar, synth, etc).. sometimes i get to a point (not always with a million layers, sometimes just a few) where when i push the overdub button the WHOLE loop gets screwed up.. even the original loop (drums) looses it's rhythm and sounds like it's skipping... this would be quite embarrassing live..
at this point in the malfunction (while it's "skipping" you can undo the last layer and the beat goes back to
normal, but anytime from then on (until you switch loops entirely) anytime you put it on overdub it messes up the rhythm again..
this happens like one out of every nine or ten loops.... scary!
this is a tragedy to me because i LOVE the features of the looper!! USB backup/loop transfer?!?! 99 storage slots, 3 inputs.. this things would be AWESOME if it functioned as it should..
i posted my problem in a jamman forum only to hear from COUNTLESS other people that theirs has this error too! i even had two people told me they sent 'em back to digitech and the company returned the loopers to them saying there is nothing wrong with them... i wish there was an update or something.. i'm super bummed...
i don't understand how this could pass a quality control test and end up in MASS PRODUCTION! oh well.. just thought i'd let people know so you don't have to return it... although if you are getting it just to practice it would still be amazing.. just my thoughts... - a sad looper

No Problems Here! -
I bought the Jam Man on a Friday, played with it Friday night, all day Saturday, and for a couple of hours with my rig on Saturday night. Sunday morning I packed it with the rest of my rig and used it live with the worship team I play with.
You have to read the instructions and perfect your technique with this pedal. The dual pedal design makes the learning curve less steep, and the auto record mode is great for live performance. Turn on auto record, tap the left pedal play the lick you want to record, tap the pedal to stop recording and start looping. Hit the left pedal again to overdub.
The biggest hurdle is learning to play with the loop in mind. The biggest mistake I made was trying to play a complete loop, then hit the pedal to stop recording. The key (for me) was to practice the lick I wanted to loop enough times so that I could play it continuously without thinking. Try practicing with a metronome or (surprise) a drum loop.
Once you can knock the lick out without thinking, put the Jam man in auto record and hit the left pedal. Start playing the lick, and concentrate on hitting the pedal again (to stop recording and go into loop mode) in between the licks as you're repeating them.
It'll take a couple of tries, but eventually you'll be able to hit the pedal right on time and making a good loop. Practicing the lick to the point it becomes automatic lets you concentrate on hitting the pedal at the right time. After a while you'll be able to do it smoothly and slip in overdubs right on time.
The first time I used it, I "cheated" and created the loop at home, adding overdubs to thicken up. When it came time to play, I played the lick on my guitar one or two times, hit the "Play" pedal (the left one), played along with the loop, then let the loop play by itself. That freed me up to add some lead volume swells over the loop, as well as switch to a different tone (Jam Man is at the END of my effects chain).
The next week, I was comfortable enough make my loop and overdub live on the fly. It worked like a charm.
The pedal took a few hours to learn, and with repeated used, not very long to master. All in all, money well spent.
Great pedal -

$300? SOLD! -
After just shelling out $300 for a guitar pedal, I had rather high expectations. Little did I know that I was paying $300 for an invaluable tool for improvement. JamMan has so many useful features, it will make your practicing WAY more efficient. Not only can you record anything you want to and play it back in a loop, you can keep adding to it to create a sudo-band to jam with. And you can slow the tempo down on that band to practice the tough solos. Essentially, I can play a Jimi Hendrix song with just me by adding the drone drums that come with the pedal, recording chords and soloing over the loop that I created. And if I have a band, I can record my bassist or drummer, or better yet, BOTH, and have something to practice with! VERY USEFUL!
It's relatively easy to figure out, and puts out good volume. If you run distortion on your amp though, the sounds gets kinda muddled.
Well worth the money! Improved my guitar playing a LOT!
