I recently so not had time to test him, but the feeling is good:

So Looper Digitech brand that offers a small revolution can synchronize multiple copies via a simple little connection, or sync with the Jamman Solo XT.
Another feature two inputs, two outputs. So we can swing two guitars on the same pedal at the same time and send them to two amps also. I have not tested this function, I expect to be able to connect to two amps in my drummer.



the peculiarity of this pedal was thinking more like a "booster Solo XT" than a truly autonomous pedal (but I will later), is the lack of memory card and internal memory. So, it does not save what we play, we can not recover on a computer. Another detail: no tempo on this model. I say tempo not to say "rhythm" knowing that the Jamman Solo offers a vulgar metronome frankly unusable except to repeat in his room. So I will not cry for this lack of tempo on it, on the contrary, it simplifies its use.
We thus see that the machine is very sleek and narrow on some functions. but beware, it is not poor so far and can really suit both for a beginner guitarist looking for a simple but effective looper as a performing musician who want to work synchronizations with other musicians or Panoramic several amps.

UTILIZATION

A volume knob setting a switch to control:
One click = recording.
Second click = stop recording and automatic loop playback
Two clicks = Stop playback of the loop
Extended during loop playback click = Deleting the last record / or undo the last deletion.
Extended shutdown = Remove everything that was saved search.

Regulars Jamman Solo or Solo XT will recognize quickly the simple manipulations. For others, it's childish, not enough reading a textbook (which takes on a form that matter).
It is ultra ultra simple.
For now, being accustomed to the big pedal Jamman Solo, I have a little trouble getting used to the narrowness of the small switch on the Express Jamman and I do not calle very own loops. but I guess it's a matter of habit (or so, an inaccuracy of the tool that is yet to be proven? We will see later).

SOUND QUALITY

The sound is good, clear, of course, after three successive taps are lost, but the stereo function is expected to swing on two separate signals via a pedal Lead Foot AB / Y amp and avoid the crash.
Digitech here solved a black loopers its points: the phenomenon of latency. On other models, when kept click to delete a song, it was entitled to two seconds of playback of the loop before its removal. % Now it's over. Loop disappears in silence.

OVERALL OPINION

For now, I lack practice this brand new pedal, so my opinion is probably not final and deserves to be refined later, but the ease of use, the wealth offered by the timing and Stereo I / O with a price below 100 €, it deserves a good assessment.
