Lexicon JAM MAN - External Tempo Sync

21
Let another device determine
JamMan's loop size
With a drum machine, or sequencer con-
nected to JamMan's rear-panel MIDI IN jack,
set the Mode knob to the number of beats
you want in your loop — for example, 4.
When RESET/BYPASS is pressed, the
TEMPO LED should flicker to indicate that
MIDI Clock is being received.
Press TAP to start recording a loop. The
TEMPO LED will light solid while the loop is
being recorded. Unless a second TAP is
received before 4 beats have elapsed,
JamMan will automatically stop recording
the loop after 4 beats and start playing the
loop — in perfect time with the drum ma-
chine.
Note that if you select a tempo/loop size
combination which exceeds JamMan's
memory limit, no loop will be created.

TAP once to record a loop.
Loop size is determined by the
number of MIDI beats/loop set on
the JamMan front panel; tempo is
set by the connected device.
Make sure the drum machine, or sequencer
clock source is set to transmit MIDI Clock.
Linking two JamMan units
offers some very interesting
possibilities, such as "stereo"
looping, or independent looping
synchronized to a single tempo.
Note: With the exception of MIDI Clock, all MIDI data
received by JamMan is echoed through the MIDI OUT port.
