Re: [looper's] midi-locked delays and stuff

["max valentino" <ekstasis1@hotmail.com>]

I have my JamDude loaded with Bob Sellon's latest software, and have found 
it to be a remarkable improvement over the original's "limitations".  Yes, 
you can run simultaneous parallel loops, each with it's own fade 
(non-destructable, so you can fade the stuff back in too, as well as fade 
loops to varying levels and overdub onto them), mute, replace, 
reverse,pan, 
and  an internal, pre-loop, tap delay.  It allows for a lot more 
interaction 
with the loops, as well as making "evolving" loop performances possible 
(as 
opposed to the original's limited "play over a static loop endlessly" 
function, or the "fill it up to a ridiculously dense mix and kill it" 
a.k.a 
"Kim's nightmare function").
All of the loops can be panned in a stereo field, which while not be true 
stereo looping, is nonetheless very cool.
And...al of this is controlable "sans-midi" (via two three button 
footswitches), which is very good as even though the new software has 
improved the versatilty and functions of the JamMan, the midi 
implementation 
is still prone to latency.

All well and good, and greatly improves the usefulness of this instrument, 
but no, it does not turn the JamBoy into a Repeater or EDP....tho I am so 
eager to integrate it into a setup WITH an EDP, which for me is coming 
soon!

I have had great success using midi-locked delays with the JamMan and my 
TC 
M-One, which seems to read the JamMan's Midi clock incredibly well, and 
placing the M-one after the JamMan allows for some truely wonderful 
delay-displaced rhythmic loops, and real-time rhythmic "morphing" of loops.

I am quite curious about the Adenalinn, as this sounds like a very 
remarkable little box, and am considering picking one up if just for the 
filters and "mangling" potential.  Mark seems to have gotten quite a bit 
of 
mileage out of his....please tell me more.
