SD Card Backup Details

Q: I’ve just started recording with my Spider Jam and my internal memory is already 

filling up.  I got an SD card to update to v2.07, but I’m new to recording and I’m a bit 

confused about backups, WAV files, JAM files, etc.  Can you give me some tips on the 

best way to do backups and keep my Spider Jam recordings organized?

 A: No problem.  The best way to manage your recordings is to think of Spider Jam’s 

internal memory as a ‘scratchpad’, and get into the habit of backing up your files to SD 

card after every session.  Here are some workflow suggestions that might be helpful:

Transfer all your internal recordings to the SD card using a Transfer All command.

• 

Remove the SD card from your Spider Jam and back it up to your computer (open 

• 

the SD card’s icon on your computer, then you drag and drop the Line 6 Folder to 

your computer’s desktop, making a copy of everything on the SD card).
Return the SD card to your Spider Jam and confirm you can load one of the recordings 

• 

from it, just to triple check that everything is working as expected.
Now that you’re sure everything is safe on the SD card, and also backed up on your 

• 

computer, erase all recordings from your Spider Jam’s internal memory.
When making new recordings, always save them to the SD card as you work.

• 

Periodically return the SD card to your computer and re-do your backup, so copies of 

• 

your latest files are always backed up on your computer.  (Create new folders on your 

computer, for example, organized by date.  To do this, create a folder for each month, 

then copy your current Spider Jam Line 6 folder into the current month’s folder).
If  you  keep  all  your  recordings  on  SD  card,  rather  than  in  Spider  Jam’s  internal 

• 

memory, it means you’ll always be ready to quickly back up your data, and everything 

will be quickly and easily accessible from your computer. This is similar to the way 

most digital cameras work with an SD card, so think of it that way.
It also results in the maximum internal memory being available for use when making 

• 

new  recordings.  Remember  that  Spider  Jam’s  internal  memory  is  your  working 

memory for recording, and if you’ve got lots of memory taken up internally by saved 

recordings, you may find that you’ll run out of working memory to do new recordings 

too quickly, especially if you make longer recordings.  So it’s best to keep it clean.
And last but not least, working this way means you never have to wonder whether 

• 

the latest version of a recording was saved to internal memory or SD card, which can 

happen if you try to use both for recordings you continue to update.  Good luck.
