It responds to MIDI program change messages. Program change 9 is a short fade, 10 is a medium fade and 11 is a long fade. Dear Kim, Can you please tell us where in the MIDI spec it states that program change messages are ONLY for changing programs? I don't believe it does. Please let me know if you have any questions or if there is anything that I can do for y'all. Best regards, Greg Hogan Lexicon Customer Service Phone 617-280-0372 FAX 617-280-0499 email: ghogan@lexicon.com Hello, As I know next to nothing about Midi, I seem to be having some problems with getting my Jamman to gradually fade out in loop mode. That is when the loop is open I want the sample to gradually degrade. It is my understanding that you can do this with a midi controller but can you acces it via the front panel? Thanks, TREVOR.

Does the Jammark allow you to start with loop 1, add a layer >as loop 2, add another layer as loop 3, erase loop 1, add a new loop 1, >erase loop2, etc., all without interruption? For me continuity should be >essential... The little I tried was to change loop number STOPPING the last >loop and adding a new one. THEN you could shift from a recorded loop to >another. This seemed a big limitation for me...I'd like to add a new loop >while listening the other ones. Now I'd like to know for sure if the Echoplex can do all this. To have different loops going on simultaneously AND the possibility to switch to one from another and to modify each one or erasing one and letting the others going on. I'm looking for this kind of features... And what about the Echoplex pedalboard?? OK I have an echoplex Depending on how much memory you have installed you can have upto 198 seconds of time to loop. Regardless of how much memory time you have, you can subdivide your total time (lets say 90 seconds..) into UPTO nine equal-sized portions (in our example, 10 seconds each). Or 2 equal memory portions of 45 seconds eqach or 3 portions of 30 seconds etc... So, you thereby have upto 9 different locations for loops to go in. So you can have upto 9 different loops available to play -- individually -- not simultaneously. For example: You can place and develop material in loop 1 then copy it to loop 2 then add different material ontop of it in loop 2 then copy all that to loop 3 then add more different materil to that in loop 3 then go back to loop 1 then go to loop 3 then copy loop 3 into loop 4 then go to loop 2 then go to loop 4 and add new material then start a brand new loop in loop 5 then go back to loop 2 then go back to loop 5 etc.. However you cannot play all nine loops at the same time. You can copy contents and move from memory location to location. Remember, you can add more and more material to each loop -- its not like a loop is a static phrase. W/ the echoplex you can add to a loop, reverse it, add some stuff while it's playing backwards, then reverse it again and add stuff. However you cannot play all nine loops at the same time. No device I'm aware of allows you to do exactly what you have described. The way to acheive THAT is to buy TWO or more looping devices. Infact, I doubt it would be easy to do in practice, technology aside. Imagine you could listen to many loops at once. After just a few minutes with a few loops, do you think you'll remember where each piece you added is stored so as to know where to subtract it from? I think that's what Fripp's got in his towering rack. Two of everything. Technically I think he can create up to two simultaneously playing loops. Each loop in stereo. Hence is Quad-like set-up. I hope that answer the question. David Kirkdorffer P.S. If you're midi challenged, I strongly urge you get the Echoplex Foot Pedal Controler. It keeps your hands on your intrument and provides alot of functionality at your, er, toes. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 15:37:44 -0400 From: Mark@asisoftware.com (Mark Kata) To: 'Loopers Delight' Subject: Fripp's Loops on the G3 Tour Message-ID: <01BC817D.BB0FC800@mark.asisoftware.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Has anyone seen Fripp looping on the G3 Tour?

Yes, you need additional hardware. You can't access this function from the front panel....which is a major bummer IMO. Matt ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 17:55:00 -0400 From: "Hogan, Greg" To: Loopers-Delight Subject: RE: Midi Fade on Jam Man Message-Id: <9706252105.AA05867@beryllium.lexicon.com> Hi Trevor, This can not be done from the front panel. You could use the MRC to do this but it would be a bit overkill. There are many devices that send MIDI program change messages. Your local retailer would probably be more aware of the options. For control of the JAMMANs functions you need a device that will send program changes 1-20. The device should also be able to send the same message two times in a row in order to take advantage of the tap feature. Please let me know if you have any questions or if there is anything that I can do for you.

I only use the medium or short fade. I'm using the Digitech PMC 10(Thanks to Kim's recommendation) to control my two jam men. A nice trick a picked up form Paul Mimlitsch (please forgive spellig error Paul) is to begin the fade, wait a bit and then to add more material as the volume has decreased. Nice way to add new foreground. Keeep making music.....

Wouldn't recommend it, but not a bad deal for $25 from the local classifieds. Its an older model that sends program changes up to 127 (actually 0 to 127) by shifting up "banks". It has 5 switches and an A/B switch to get from prg 1-5 to prg 6-10 etc. To get to the next set of 10 its necessary to press a bank switch up or down. Unfortunately, this bugger sends a program change even when you change "banks" or A/B. No way to configure it differently to "wait for program switch", it just goes to the same program in the next bank. Guess you get what you pay for. If there was a way to retrofit it to "*not* send program changes on bank changes" it would be the perfect, small, battery powered box. Still works better than using the pedal port apparently. Wonder if midi transmission of a tap is literally faster than electronic impulse from "mechanical" footswitch? Or is it just the "ergonomics" of the footswitch that lends to a tighter control?

However I've got to jump in with my 2 cents.... I once had a Digitech PMC-10. Actually I had five. Sequentually. They were all defective. I still have one now, which doesn't work. I loved the device, I was using it for sending notes, CC info etc. But I didn't have a computer at the time [no back-up] and it had a nasty habit of erasing all the stored programs, and was a real pain to reprogram with the cheesy little "remote". I went to the PMC-10 from an ART X-11, the only MIDI controller I was aware of at the time. VERY limited functionality. I've long needed a controller that could send out different program changes on different MIDI channels. The PMC did this and much else in an elegant manner, but was ultimately useless in the real world... and I'm very gentle with my equipment. I'm now using a Ground Control, and while it won't do all I'd like, I *trust* it. Sorry to be so long-winded about this, but this really touches a nerve with me. Equipment is expensive. The Digitech cost $250 new, which may not be a lot for some, but is a whole lot for others. I will never buy anything else from Digitech, which I realise is probably not fair to them, but I need dependability. If there are other pedals around, does anyone know anything about them? The Jamman must be used with MIDI control, in my opinion. I'd love to have an Echoplex now, but that's out of reach for now. Begging everyone's indulgence....

I had one for a while with a 9030 fx processor, but I never used it with anything other than the zoom so I can't say anything about it's compatibility with something like the jambeast. I know you could program it to do tap tempo delays on the zoom and it had two jacks for c/v pedals. It was really well made and never went out on me at a gig, so maybe it'd be an option for some.

In particular, "The Marble Index", "Desertshore" "The End" and "Camera Obscura". These are all quite amazing recordings the likes of which have not occurred before or since. Nico's approach was utterly original, and helped along by John Cale's production, created recordings of haunting beauty. Extraordinary voice, great lryicist, and hell, I have a real weakness for harmonium (or pump organ) and this was Nico's main instrument. Also, "The End" features Phil Manzanera on electric guitar and Brian Eno (a big fan) on the EMS Synthi AKS. Light some candles and check it out. No one seems to have mentioned Robert Rich at all, so I think I'll just take the opportunity. Robert is currently recording on the Fathom label, a dark ambient offshoot of Hearts of Space. There are many recordings, on other labels as well, and in collaboration with people such as B. Lustmord and Steve Roach. I haven't heard everything, but I can recommend "A Troubled Resting Place" , a collection of Robert Rich pieces. Real floatation tank stuff. (Robert knows his way around a loop and the studio. ) Also "Stalker" with Lustmord. Very dark. Also check out what you can find of Lustmord. He puts the H in haunting. "Soma" with Steve Roach is good too. Fathom has a website: www.fathomusic.com. Robert has a very informative site at: www.amoeba.com/rrich/rr.html.

I was warned about that problem too. Digitech supposedly put out a software upgrade to fix it. I got mine from a guy who had gotten the upgrade and assured me that he hadn't had the data loss crash happen since. For $100 it was worth the risk, and so far I haven't had any trouble with that. I hate the remote too, it's definitely the stupidest part about that pedal. I've had to fix it twice already, and the next time I'm going to rebuild it with a decent cable so that it never breaks again. Still, these things are a total steal on the used market, I think. The midi implementation is very comprehensive. > If there are other pedals around, does anyone know anything about them? The people I know who can afford to try and buy anything they want, all use the Rocktron All Access pedal. It's extrmely well constructed and does at least everything the pmc-10 does, probably a lot more. You pay a lot for it though. Those were the folks who suggested the pmc-10 to me, since the roctron was out of my price range at the time. Most of them were using the pmc-10 until the rocktron came out. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Jun 1997 12:01:33 -0400 From: Mark@asisoftware.com (Mark Kata) To: "'Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com'" Subject: RE: Fripp's Loops on the G3 Tour Message-ID: <01BC8228.B24B18E0@mark.asisoftware.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit OK.

I haven't, but here are two accounts of those who did (I've deleted various non-Fripp info from the original posts): From: Mike Stack Subject: G3 Review, mostly... Hi there. Last night was the G3 show in Hartford, so myself and two of my friends headed over to check out RF, basically. Showed up around 6pm or so, were checking out the merchandise when we heard RF starting up. Headed in, checked out the show. He played from 6-7:20 or so, sat off to my left (we were pretty much dead center). Lots of interesting stuff, seemed to be a lot more chordal strumming than on the albums he's put out. At one point towards the end of RF's set, some idiot started screaming and yelling and banging the chair in front of him. Fripp got louder. Idiot got louder. Fripp got louder. Fripp also looked somewhat annoyed at this point. A few interesting notes about RF's performance -most the crowd didn't give a damn, including some guy dressed all snazzily in his business suit, who didn't shut up the whole night. -RF occasionally got up, took off his guitar, and walked further to my left to talk to someone else. Don't know who. -RF wore a white shirt untucked and black pants, while switching to a black shirt during the encore (more later...). -No one smoked anything illegal during Fripp's set, something that couldn't be said for the rest. Encore. Satch announces KWS, RF, and Vai. Opener was a tune called "I'm Going Down". Somewhere in the solo breaks, RF got the nod from Satch. Could barely hear his solo. Nothing special. Followed by Zappa's "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama". Didn't like the vocals, or the soloing. Fripp was not given one. Followed by the Kinks' "You Really Got Me". More really bad vocals, sounded like KWS, Vai and Satch never heard the Kinks verson of the tune either. More true to Van Halen. Fripp was heard once in this one. The second time the riff came, I heard him screaming, then he was shut down. Last song was a blues tune which for some reason said Stevie Ray Vaughan to me, though I couldn't place it. Ego war between Vai and KWS. Fripp took an organ solo practically (sounded like an organ at least, think he's been hanging out with Adrian too much...:). Vai and KWS got progressively louder during the song. All in all, fairly disappointing encore as such things go. (and another account) ate: Sat, 21 Jun 1997 21:44:10 -0400 (EDT) From: AACUNZO@xray3.chem.sunysb.edu Subject: G3 SPOILERS - I swear I didn't make this up Hello ET, WARNING: This post contains spoilers regarding the G3 shows. Skip it if you don't want to know about the shows yet. With that out of the way, I must start off by thanking Simon Beauchemin for his warning in ET #388 regarding Fripp playing before the scheduled show times on the G3 tour. Because of his post I made sure to get to the Jones Beach show extra early. And BTW, whoever is responsible for this setup made a really stupid decision - although most of the people seeing this tour probably don't know Fripp, some people paid good money because they wanted to see him, and having him go on before the scheduled show time is pretty inconsiderate. They should have just printed the correct time on the tickets. Anyway, the show time was supposedly 7:30. When we were allowed to enter the venue (around 6:45), Fripp was already on stage playing. The place was empty, and we walked right up to the front and got to stay there for most of his set, (which lasted a little over an hour, I think) even though our seats were farther back. It was great hearing soundscapes over a concert PA; you can really feel the vibrations through your seat and your body in the louder passages. I don't want to try to describe what the soundscapes sounded like, but as the place filled up during his set, I was trying to guage people's reactions to Fripp. Although I did hear a few people making fun of him, a lot of people seemed intrigued by these strange sounds - this may have something to do with the number of guitar players in the audience, though - "How the hell is he doing that?" :) Fripp's set was followed by Kenny Wayne Shepard, Steve Vai, and Joe Satriani. Now we get to the fun part. At the end of Satriani's set, the other three guitarists joined him onstage for the encores. It really was quite a sight - at center stage were a 19 year old blues guitarist and two "shredders" (I like some of Vai's and Satriani's stuff, but let's face it - these guys aren't exactly known for their subtlety, especially Vai). And off on stage right was an older Englishman on a stool in a white shirt and black vest. The whole encore was just a surreal experience. The first song they did I guess was called "Goin' Down." Each guy took a solo spot, including Fripp, although I couldn't hear his solo too well. Then came "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama" and "You Really Got Me." Fripp didn't take any solos in these songs, although he played rhythm throughout all the songs. And then to finish the night off, they played "Red House." Yes, Fripp played a straight 12-bar blues - I never thought I would see that! And on this song, he did take a solo - using a Hammond Organ sound on his guitar! It was just a normal sounding blues organ solo, except I think he went higher than the range of any organ. :) I think he used the organ sound during the whole song, but there was so much sound coming from the stage it was hard to tell! Everyone looked like they were having a blast during the encores - I even saw Fripp smiling several times! When Satriani introduced them all at the end of the show Fripp got a good response from the crowd (although not as loud as the "stars" did.) Satriani and Fripp left the stage with their arms around each other. All in all it was a pretty good night, if only because I got the amazing chance to witness Fripp going from "small, mobile, intelligent unit" to "Wild Thing" Fripp in the span of about five hours. :) Let the games begin, Andy Acunzo aacunzo@ccmail.sunysb.edu P.S. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd ever get to see Robert Fripp play "Red House" and "You Really Got Me." P.P.S. I was thankful that at the end of Fripp's set he didn't return to the stage in leather pants and no shirt, as Steve Vai did. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Jun 1997 14:06:28 -0700 From: dan mcmullen To: loopers-delight@annihilist.com Subject: new plexer: blinking undo?

My question is simple, an probably an old one. Where's the best place to get an Echoplex from? I had the number of a place on the web that was selling them for around $500 -$550, but can't locate it anymore. Also, have they worked out some of the bugs that older plex owners often complained about? Thanx for any help - I've been waiting to embark on the journey of looping for a long time now!
