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 Vocal XTs for single-player/multi-

track looping or connect to other JamSync compatible devices to collaborate with other 

musicians, each recording and cueing their own loops for expressive multi-player/multi-track 

looping�

Daisy chain any remaining slaves in 

the same manner� 

When cascading multiple JamMan 

Vocal XTs in series and using 

JamSync, the last Vocal XT device in 

the chain will be the master� You will 

want to record to this master device 

first, then the second to last device, 

etc�, working your way backwards 

through the signal chain� Performing 

these actions will ensure you record 

only what you intend to during each 

pass�
