When it doesn't fit anywhere else

I am trying to copy a backing track from my computer onto my jamman.

I created a folder on the card called LOOP49 (since I had 48 others already recorded)

I changed the file name of the backing track to LOOP.wav and copied on to the card. It didnt work so I also copied a LOOP.xml

Still nothing. How do you guys get a backing track onto your jamman?

This is from the manual

here's the link for it from digitech

ftp://ftp.digitech.com/pub/PDFs/Manuals ... hv2.0B.pdf

I haven't done this yet but here's what may be the relevent portion (p30-31)


Exchange Files Between Your Computer and the
JamMan®
Windows XP
1. Stop any playback/recording/overdubbing on the JamMan.
2. Connect a USB cable from your computer to the USB jack on the
JamMan’s rear panel. The JamMan DISPLAY will read CF, indicating it is
now being used as a CompactFlash card reader.
3. Double-click the My Computer icon on your computer’s desktop. There
should be a new removable drive named JAMMAN.
4. Double-click the JAMMAN drive. You will now see all the loop directories that have been recorded.
5. To move them from the card to your computer, either drag them to your
computer’s desktop or select the directories you wish to move and select
Edit>Copy in the task bar.
6. Open a different directory on your computer and select Edit>Paste. The
loop directories copied will now be pasted in this location.
7. Right-click the JAMMAN drive and select Eject before removing the
CompactFlashTM card or unplugging the USB cable.
Moving loop directories from your computer is done in the same manner.
Select the loop directory on the computer and move it into the JAMMAN
directory by dragging or using the Copy/Paste commands.

I had tried that. I didnt need to use a USB because I have a compact flash card reader in my pc.

Got it figured out.

1) .wav files need to be 16 bit, 44.1K sampling rate
2).wav files must be MONO, not stereo files.

Once I fixed that it worked.
