On loopers
So the Digitech JamMan Stereo has gone faulty (dead/no lights).
Ordered a new PSU, just in case it's that.
Any views on what's good these days - don't want an RC500 monster, this is used for chord & percussion loops for practice.
Any suggestions in case it has gone titsup.com ?

I've got an RC-30 - it's okay.
I've had a JamMan Solo and an RC2, sold them both (and wish I hadn't) but I'm looking at another, and I'd go with the Boss, probably an RC3. The drum tracks are way better on the Boss, everything else is pretty similar, feature-wise.
I'm still using the Boss RC-20xl. Does just what I need.
However, have you considered something like the Line 6 M9, or the Zoom G3? Both work as loopers plus you get loads more functionality as well. For the money the Zoom is a steal, and there's usually loads of second hand M9s floating around the classifieds here.
The Akai Headrush is *really* simple to use. Not that much loop time though and the loop features are very simple. Does have a very nice delay mode too.
Actually NTD has a good point too. I already have a G3 on my board but I'm considering getting another to use at home just for the looper, as it has all the features I'd want from a looper at the same price as an RC3.
Yes the looper in the G3 is very good. The only limitation is the length of loop, other than that it's great.
Pleased to report that the new psu from Amazon worked a treat ! Back in business
