    Outstanding rundown of these pedals - by far the best and most comprehensive on RUclips. Attention acoustic gear companies: Hire this guy to demo your products!

    Great demos and information, Aaron. I use Reverb and EQ on every gig

    Great video Aaron. In the type of gigs I play, I play just as much acoustic as I do electric. For many years I've put money into all sorts of acoustic pedals. But when I got the HX Stomp all that changed allowing me to really dial in a great acoustic signal chain. I always felt I was chasing the tone I couldn't have. There is so much emphasis on the electric side of things that acoustic pedals and modeling have taken a back seat.

      I agree but I think that may start to change as the solo acoustic thing is getting so big now. I like when companies make pedals that are aimed at the acoustic market. I would love to see Fishman make a multi effects pedal for acoustic guitar and vocals.

    Awesome review, Aaron! I’m thinking about paring my Fishman Aura Spectrum DI to this AFX Acoustiverb. I play classical guitar (a nylon Takamine TC135SC) and I really feel the need for reverb. I’d like to add also a “boost” pedal… I think those are really missing in the Aura pedal.
    Thanks again!

      @ How would you suggest for power supplying it? I’m really newbie in this world. Should I use thoses from Fishman (910R)? If yes, how to power more than one pedal?

    • @aaronshortmusic

      @ Use a multi supply like the Voodo Labs etc.

    Aaron I really enjoyed this video, started watching at home and continued at the gym while working out. I found myself stopping and replaying sections of it. Great job in explaining practical application of the various pedals. I have an old acoustic Epiphone with me this Summer with a Fishman matrix that I’ll experiment with the various pedal emulations in the Spark Go with headphones. (Makes me want to revisit my old Boss GT3 that I used for years with my Gibson J200 with a LR Baggs IBeam for live shows) but the Voice Live 3 Ex is waiting at home so that learning curve is in front of me. Great job.

    Hey Aaron, do you think the blender pedal would be useful with a Cole Clark system, or would it be redundant?

    • @aaronshortmusic
      @aaronshortmusic  4 месяца назад +1

      The Cole Clark does not have separate outputs. It would work best with the dual source Fishman pickups or the K&K pure mini with fantastik etc.

    • @woodsteelband
      @woodsteelband 4 месяца назад +1

      I guess I should have clarified that. I have the Cole Clark thinline acoustic hybrid with the 3 way pick up and a humbucker. It has dual outs.

      @aaronshortmusic  4 месяца назад +2

      @@woodsteelband Ah yes in that case you can use it as a pickup selector which is actually a great idea as the selector on the guitar makes noise through the acoustic pickup which you change it on the guitar. Very cool!

    Hi I have a fishman earth blend pickup in a small bodied guitar. Always seem to be quiet in the mix with other musicians. Would the afx eq be able to give an overall and sufficient volume boost?. Thanks in advance

    • @aaronshortmusic
      @aaronshortmusic  Месяц назад +1

      Yes you can use the volume and input trim to make it louder.

    Do you use the fishman rare earth blend with the bass role switch up (towards the Low e String) or down?

    • @aaronshortmusic
      @aaronshortmusic  2 месяца назад +1

      For the dreadnought in this video it would have been off but for an OM I may turn it on. It depends on the guitar.

    • @stephanbockholt5976
      @stephanbockholt5976 2 месяца назад

      So for the Dreadnought the switch up for more mag and less mic and for a om switch down for more mic as possible? If i get it right...😊

      @@stephanbockholt5976 No that is a different thing. I usually set the blend around 50% but again it depends. Just choose what sounds best to you.

    That's one way. But the best way is metal zone to big muff to additional metal zone to ring modulator. And for you singer songwriters, anteres auto tune will sound great with this set up.
