Hey, thanks for the advice. I'll start saving my pennies! I think I'll probably go with an Echoplex as a second looper (if they ever get here!) and keep my Digitech 2112 for a while. It's a pretty good unit for the money. One question though, with the g2, can you have multipal effects with the 20 sec looping? That would be good. steve lawson wrote: > >I just got an email from Lexicon and they do indeed confirm that the >JamMan > >function on the MPX-G2 is MIDI synchable, as is the original JamMan.
