Re: Is there a NEW version of Spyder Jam being developed?

I have the FBV Shortboard Mk2 with my Spider Jam and am very happy with that combination. Controlling the loops with the pedalboard is the most practical thing there is.

I don't get how people can have problems with using their presets... I never have problems with how loud my presets are. Just remember that channel volume is saved with tone, master volume controls overall volume and isn't saved.

In any case, I don't think that there will be a newer Spider Jam out there within the near future. Afaik it wasn't really a success (rather expensive compared to the standard Spider series... almost as expensive as gig-ready amps or the cheaper half stacks like the Bugera 6262), unfortunately, because having all you'll ever need in one smallish package is awesome. Drums, metronome, tuner, looper, lots of tonal possibilities, one pedalboard for everything... you don't get that for less money anywhere else.

Thank you for the link, Line6Miller!

I've submitted my request and hope that it might hit an update soon.

Removing most recent overdub during playback.

Hello Line6

It has bugged me for some time already that I can't use my Spider Jam to play like a one-man-army. That means I want to have a drum groove (I love the Pasadena Rock!) going in the background and then add a riff to it (overdub), improvise over that riff, then remove the overdubbed riff *without* the drum loop stopping. That way I could be able to change key I'm improvising over or switch between clean and distorted sounds and other fancy stuff.

As I've got a bit of knowledge about programming I suppose that this shouldn't be a hard thing to do (for the devs: just put the overdubbed data into a garbage collector and delete it once playback is stopped to save some processing cycles).

Can I hope for this feature request to make it into an update to the Jam? I would be very grateful!

Greetings
