Using JamSync
Connection & Record Sequence
JamSync allows you to synchronize multiple JamSync compatible devices using optional 1/8”
mini stereo (TRS) cables (see below cable diagram)� This allows a JamSync master to control
the loop playback and stop functions for all connected JamSync slaves, providing multi-track
looping capabilities� You can cascade multiple JamMan Express XTs for single-player/multi-
track looping or collaborate with other musicians, each recording and cueing their own
loops for expressive multi-player/multi-track looping�

record to the slave� This method works well if you do not wish to immediately
