Had a gig on saturday got there early and spent some time with messing with the eq settings.Got it sounding sweet eventually.
Just have to try and remember the settings for next time! :D]]> Live Sound bobblehat https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/electric-acoustic-through-pa/#post-305770 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/electric-acoustic-through-pa/#post-304717 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 19:19:32 +0000
I have recently started playing my electric acoustic on few songs with my band.I put it through our PA and its sound ok but not great.As its a reasonably good guitar http://www.ibanez.co.jp/anniversary/expansion.php?cat_id=266&now=2 I'm sure I can get it to sound a lot better.It just doesn't sound very acousticky if that makes sense.I have thought about running it through a spare eq pedal to see if this would help.

I was wondering if there are any do's and dont's or recommendations to get the best sound out of your acoustic.

cheers

bob. Remember that an acoustic will sound very different to the player than the listener. What you hear through the PA may be closer to what most listeners hear directly. If you can define what sounds different, it makes fixing it easier. My first guess would be to add extra reverb, as well as adjusting the EQ to match what your used to hearing. If you can, let a friend mess with the PA while you play and see what works best.]]> Live Sound Dan Lasley https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/electric-acoustic-through-pa/#post-304717 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/electric-acoustic-through-pa/#post-304353 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 04:22:43 +0000
If you don't have an acoustic amp available, you might aiming a mic at the sound hole. You'll bypass the electronics in the guitar, but since you want a real acoustic sound, it will probably be your best option.]]> Live Sound Big Lar https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/electric-acoustic-through-pa/#post-304353 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/electric-acoustic-through-pa/#post-32984 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 00:22:09 +0000
