Re: Digitech Jam Man



>From audiofanzine.fr:

xml exemple: "Loop 22211 2 1 Stop" 

The number in the song setup file for tempo is in Samples/beat.  Since 
the JamMan runs at 44100, the calculation is 60*44100/BPM, or 
2646000/BPM.  So the correct value for 100 BPM is 2646000/100 = 26460. 

It's a start ;-)

Ben.
