JamMan won't read edited loops...
Hi all! I edited a couple of my loops on my pc. Nothing big, just played with some echo and stuff like that. I keep all the settings the same, save it back to whatever folder it was originally assigned to, but when I transfer the card back into the jamman it won't read that there is a loop there at all. Back on the PC it shows up fine. It's mono, 16bit, 44.1 kHz. Anyone have an idea what could be going wrong?

What is the naming convention - does it have to be LOOP?
Do I need to manipulate the xml? if so how?
Operating system requirements: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Mac OSX
Verify the audio file format is correct.
The audio file format must be: uncompressed .wav 44.1 kHz 16 bit mono
Checking the Audio file format on a PC
1. Point at the audio file
2. Right click on the file and select properties
3. Click on the summary tab
The audio file format must exactly match the audio file format in the screen shot
above.
Properly naming the audio file
In order for the JamMan to recognize the audio file, the file must be named LOOP
with a .WAV extension (LOOP.WAV).
1. Point at the audio file
2. Right click on the file
3. Select Rename
4. Rename the file LOOP
5. Verify the extension is .WAV
Transferring the LOOP to the JamMan
1. Stop any playback/recording/overdubbing on the JamMan
2. Connect a USB cable from your computer to the USB jack on the JamMan’s rear
panel. The JamMan display will read CF, indicating it is now being used as a
Compact Flash card reader.
3. Double-click the My Computer icon on your computer’s desktop. There should be a
new removable drive named JAMMAN.
4. Double-click on the JamMan drive. You will now see a JamMan directory.
5. Double-click the JamMan directory. You will now see all the LOOP directories that
have been created on the JamMan.
6. In the JamMan directory, right click in a blank area and choose New>Folder
7. The new folder must be named LOOP01, or LOOP02, or LOOP03 through LOOP99;
the number on the end of the LOOP will indicate where the loop will be located on
the JamMan.
8. To move the uncompressed .wav 44.1 kHz 16 bit mono audio file named LOOP
that is located on your computer to the JamMan subdirectory LOOPXX.
9. Locate the audio file, right click on the audio file, select copy,
10. Go to the JamMan directory, locate the subdirectory LOOPXX, point at the
LOOPXX folder, right click on the folder and choose paste.
11. The file will begin copying from your computers hard drive to the JamMan compact
flash card.
ATTENTION: Do not remove your CF card during file transfer or you may lose files.
Safely remove the USB mass storage device from your computer
\Disconnect the USB cable from the JamMan. You can locate your loop on the JamMan by
rotating the select knob to the loop number that the wave file was placed in.
