Hello all... I've just found the loopers page (thanks Kim...way cool) and subscribed to this list. Last week I came across a used (demo actually) jam man in a local music store and half jokingly offered the store manager $150 for it... I was prepared to pay upwards to $250-maybe $275 as I have wanted a looping device for about 8 mos now...(was inspired by a concert by Pierre Bensusan who used an Oberheim Echoplex...) I was flabbergasted when the guy said OK...everything appears intact- no manual,but the power supply, "ring tip" footswitch and a stereo cable were all included. No warranty, no box and ,again, no manual...but...YES baby! I was quite happy to find what I consider a real bargain. Anyway...I called Lexicon and they are sending me a manual (12 bucks including shipping...SHEESH!) Here's my question... I understand from numerous references that the jam man is expandable to 32 seconds...who can tell me what type of chips this requires...can it be done by a novice (I've built a few computers from components I've acquired on the cheap, so..I guess as long as it's as simple as plugging in SIMMS chips I could handle it...) I live in the S.F. Bay area so I would imagine the chips are readily available (unless its some funky older technolgy I've never heard of) in my area...how much should I expect to spend? Are they regular 30 or 72 pin Simms? etc etc.. any response will be greatly appreciated...thanks in advance. Roland Eberle roland@ccnet..com
