In short, the Jamman is a looping/recording device that lets you overdub and replace parts on the fly to create loops which you can play on top of and/or alter at any moment. I have been working diligently to learn how to use this device and have been finding that it opens up a whole new world of spontaneity and creativity for me.
When KD is using his Echoplex and Ableton Live software and I am using my Jamman synched to him, we are able to make the trio sound like a lot more like a 6 or 7 piece band. As well as looping my bass, I have been using Miraton with my laptop running into the Jamman to create loops which are a mixture of bass and samples. I am big fan of Ikue Mori and have been trying to emulate some of the stuff she does with sound collages in my own way.
