what is it you are planning to do that 198 seconds of loop time would not 
be enough? I'm just curious what application would need so much. I don't 
think I've seen anyone running into that as a limitation in any practical 
context, but maybe you maybe your pieces are really, really long...

How would you get the loop time in jamman 2 to equal the time on jamman 1, 
and do it in real time? The Digitech JamMan doesn't have any sync 
features, 
so I don't see how this would be possible.

Like others suggested, this sounds like another reason why you might want 
to look at a higher-end looper. Those usually have much more display 
features. You can't really expect the low end products to do everything.
