My review of Sellon Jam-Man update



I have been working with Bob Sellon's 0.2 update for the last 2 weeks, and
I must say that this is the greatest looping instrument I have yet
encountered. 

My favorite new feature is the ability to have multiple, simultaneous
loops, each on a separate channel with  mute, layer, replace, level and
pan. Welcome to multi-track looping!

I love to have a basic chord progression or groove recorded, panned center,
and add layers of swiming atmospherics to channels panned hard left and
hard right. If I find that I want to change what is happening in one of the
channels, I can change it without destroying the entire piece. The ability
to mute each part during a performance allows for really spontaneous
arrangements.

There are quite a number of other features that I havent explored yet, like
the sampler and mellotron modes.

I hope that he can strike a deal with Lexicon to release this software
commercially, or even better, develops a new looping device incorporating
all of these great ideas (Given the $$$ required to buy a jam-man these 
days).
