Well, I finally got my express pedal. Plugged it in and have no idea how to format it to control the functions of my record/play for the spiderjam. I read the online pdf manual, but it didn't cover anything about how to format the pedal or the amp to comply. I then lost my lcd reading screen on the top of the amp, so now I can't even see where I'm navigating to, even if downloading an upgrade were the answer. I therefore am done with the line6. I tried, but in my opinion, the amp has great features and incredible sound, but wasn't built very well. If these are the kind of problems that a musician has to contend with through line6, then I'd rather go another direction. Thanks for all the input and help, but I'm out. Anyone interested in a really good deal on a line6 spider jam and express pedal, let me know as I have both for sale. Sincerely, frustrated and let down....
