Quick Start1. Make necessary connections (see“Connection Diagrams” on page 9).2. Connect the included power adapter3.4.5.6.7.12to the JamMan Solo XT.Select an empty memory locationusing the UP/DOWN buttons(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).Set the LOOP LEVEL controlto the 12 o’clock position and the RHYTHM LEVEL control to theminimum position.Press the PEDAL SWITCH toinitiate recording. Recording will beginand you should start playing.Once done recording, press the PEDAL SWITCH again to set theloop end point and initiate playback.You can now listen to and play alongwith the loop.8. If you want to record an overdub,press the PEDAL SWITCH againand play along with the loop (theSTATUS LED will light yellow).9. Press the PEDAL SWITCH againto stop overdubbing and playback willcontinue.10. Quickly press the PEDAL SWITCH twice to stop playback.11. Press the STORE button twice tostore the recorded loop.

OperationSelecting a Loop in MemoryTo select loops, press the UP and DOWN buttons. As you press these buttonsthe LED display will update, showing the currently selected memory location number.You can also press and hold these buttons to scroll through all the loop memories.When Loop 200 is reached, pressing the UP button will cause the loop memoriesto wrap around and return to Loop 1. Likewise, if Loop 1 is reached, pressing the DOWN button will wrap the other way, returning to Loop 200.If an optional memory card has been installed, pressing the UP and DOWN buttons will alternate through one bank of memories and then the next (1-200internal, then 1-200 external). The CARD MEM LED will light when memories areselected on the external memory card.13

Free-Form vs Auto Quantized LoopingThere are two ways you can record loops using the JamMan Solo XT, Free-Formlooping or Auto Quantize looping.Free-Form LoopingFree-Form looping is the standard way loopers have been used since their inception.You initiate recording of the phrase and then set the loop end point when youreach the end of your passage. The loop end point is set exactly when you press the PEDAL SWITCH to stop the recording, at which time the tempo for the loop isthen calculated. Getting an accurately timed and seamless loop takes practice butoffers the flexibility experienced loopers require.Auto Quantized LoopingAuto Quantized looping makes getting accurately timed loop points easy. To AutoQuantize, you must first set the desired tempo. This is done by one of four ways:1. Use the TEMPO button to tap in the tempo (see “Recording a Loop (AutoQuantize)” on page 17).2. Tap the tempo using an optional FS3X Footswitch (see “Optional FS3X Footswitch”on page 57).3. Set the exact tempo using the Tempo option (see “Tempo” on page 44).4. Enable the Pedal Tempo feature and use the PEDAL SWITCH to tap in thetempo (see “Recording a Loop Using Pedal Tempo (Auto Quantize)” on page 18).14

Once the tempo is established, record your loop and set the loop end point at theend of a measure. If your timing was a little early or late, not to worry, the JamManSolo XT automatically adjusts the loop length to the measure length set by the Tempoand Time Signature.NOTE: The JamMan Solo XT can record and playback loops up to 10 minutes long.Recording a Loop (Free-Form)Pedal Tempo Off (Default)/Auto Record Off (Default)1. Select an empty memory locationusing the UP/DOWN buttons(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).2. Press the PEDAL SWITCH toinitiate recording and begin playing.3. As soon as you’re done recording,press the PEDAL SWITCH againto stop recording and initiate playback.Quickly press the PEDAL SWITCH twice to stop loop playback.4. Press the STORE button twice ifyou wish to store the loop.15

Recording a Loop Using Auto RecordSee “Auto Record” on page 50 for information on enabling the Auto Record feature.1. Select an empty memory locationusing the UP/DOWN buttons(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).2. (Optional) If you wish to usethe Rhythm guide Track, set the RHYTHM LEVEL control tothe 9 o’clock position then tap the TEMPO button a few times at therate you want the phrase tempo tobe. This will create an auto quantizedloop.You will begin to hear theRhythm Guide Track. The beats willbe indicated by a flashing TEMPObutton LED, flashing red on the firstdownbeat and green on all remainingbeats of the measure. When using theRhythm Guide Track, time signaturecan be manually set to a differenttime signature other than the defaultof 4 beats per measure (see “Time16Signature” on page 45).3. Press the PEDAL SWITCH to armrecording, indicated by a flashing redSTATUS LED. Begin playing to startrecording. Recording will be indicatedby a solid red STATUS LED.NOTE: When Auto Record is armedfor recording, pressing the PEDALSWITCH a second time will disarmAuto Record (Status LED will stopflashing).4. As soon as you’re done recording,press the PEDAL SWITCH again tostop recording and initiate playback.5. Quickly press the PEDAL SWITCH twice to stop loop playback.6. Press the STORE button twice ifyou wish to store the loop.

Recording a Loop (Auto Quantize)Pedal Tempo Off (Default)/Auto Record Off (Default)1. Select an empty memory locationusing the UP/DOWN buttons(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).2. Set the RHYTHM LEVEL controlto the 9 o’clock position then tapthe TEMPO button a few times atthe rate you want the phrase tempoto be.You will begin to hear theRhythm Guide Track. The beats willbe indicated by a flashing TEMPObutton LED, flashing red on the firstdownbeat and green on all remainingbeats of the measure. When using theRhythm Guide Track, time signaturecan be manually set to a differenttime signature other than the defaultof 4 beats per measure (see “TimeSignature” on page 45).3. Press the PEDAL SWITCH toinitiate recording and begin playing.You will receive a one measure countin, indicated by a flashing red andgreen STATUS LED. After the countin, begin playing with the first beatto start recording. Recording will beindicated by a solid red STATUS LED.4. As soon as you’re done recording,press the PEDAL SWITCH againto stop recording and initiate playback.Quickly press the PEDAL SWITCH twice to stop loop playback.5.

Recording a Loop Using Pedal Tempo (Auto Quantize)See “Pedal Tempo” on page 51 for information on enabling the Pedal Tempo feature.1. Select an empty memory locationusing the UP/DOWN buttons(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).2. Set the RHYTHM LEVEL controlto the 9 o’clock position.3. Press the PEDAL SWITCH a fewtimes at the rate you want the phrasetempo to be.You will begin to hearthe Rhythm Guide Track and the beatswill be indicated by a flashing TEMPObutton LED. Repeat this step to finetune the tempo, if necessary. Whenusing the Rhythm Guide Track, timesignature can be manually set to adifferent time signature other than thedefault of 4 beats per measure (see“Time Signature” on page 45).4. To exit Pedal Tempo Mode andprepare for recording, press and185.6.7.8.hold the PEDAL SWITCH untilthe TEMPO button LED repeatedlyflashes yellow, then release.Press the PEDAL SWITCH toinitiate recording.You will receivea one bar count in, indicated by aflashing red and green STATUS LED.After the count in, begin playing withthe first beat to start recording.Recording will be indicated by a solidred STATUS LED.As soon as you’re done recording,press the PEDAL SWITCH again tostop recording and initiate playback.Quickly press the PEDAL SWITCH twice to stop loop playback.Press the STORE button twice ifyou wish to store the loop.

Recording a Loop Using the AUX IN JackThe JamMan Solo XT can record stereo loops using the AUX IN 1/8” mini jack. Thisjack can be connected to portable music players for practicing or learning new songs.Recording loops from the AUX IN jack is the same as recording your instrumentloops using the 1/4” LEFT/RIGHT INPUT jacks. It is recommended to use the AutoRecord option when recording from the AUX IN jack (see “Auto Record” on page 50for information on enabling Auto Record).To record a loop from the AUX IN jack:1. Select an empty memory location5.using the UP/DOWN buttons(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).6.2. Press the PEDAL SWITCH to armthe recording, indicated by a flashingred STATUS LED.3. Press play on your portable musicplayer.4. As soon as you’re done recording,press the PEDAL SWITCH again tostop recording and initiate playback.Quickly press the PEDAL SWITCH twice to stop loop playback.Press the STORE button twice ifyou wish to store the loop.19

Multiple Loop Playback (Cueing Loops)The JamMan Solo XT allows you to cue up loops for seamless multi-loop playback.This can be used to playback a sequence of loops for creating an entire song.To cue a loop:1. While a loop is playing, press the UP or DOWN button to selectthe loop which you wish to cue. Theloop memory location number in thedisplay will flash, indicating the loop iscued for playback.2. Once the current loop reaches itsloop end point, the cued loop willseamlessly begin playing.3. Repeat step 1 to cue another loop.NOTE: If either the UP or DOWN button is pressed less than two seconds before the endof a playing loop, the JamMan Solo XT will not have enough time to cue up the next loop and thecurrent loop will continue to play one more time.You can also use the optional FS3X footswitch forhands-free cueing of loops (see “Multiple Loop Playback with FS3X” on page 58).20

Recording OverdubsOnce a loop has been recorded, the JamMan Solo XT allows you to record multipleoverdubs on top of the loop. Overdub recording is only possible with Loops. SinglePhrases do not allow for overdub recording. If you do wish to add overdubs to aSingle Phrase, you can always convert it to a Loop as described in “Setup PlaybackType”. Overdubs can be added to a loop at any time.HINT: If you plan on adding overdubs, it is recommended that you store the loop first, beforeadding the overdubs.This will allow you to use the Clear function in the event you ever need to clearall overdubs and get back to the original loop (see “Undo, Redo, & Clear” on page 23).NOTE: If a loop has had the tempo changed, it must first be stored to memory before overdubrecording is allowed.You can either overwrite the loop in the current memory location

computer (PC or Mac) and lets you quickly create JamLists to take to your gig. The JamMan Solo XT is the perfect stereo looper/phrase sampler for practicing, composing, and performing. Use the JamMan S
