DigiTech JamMan
Looper/Phrase Sampler
Guitar Effects Pedal

    When DigiTech invented the PDS8000 pedal almost twenty years ago, it stored eight seconds of audio.  Now the JamMan Looper/Phrase Sampler pedal has been reinvented using removable CompactFlash™ memory to store up to 6.5 hours! (with optional 2GB card)  

    A wide range of features combined with ease of use make the DigiTech® JamMan® the perfect looper/phrase sampler for practicing, composing, and performing. The JamMan opens up new horizons to your musical explorations. Whether you’re performing alone and building many parts to develop a song or play in a full band, the possibilities are endless!
