    reducing volume of acoustic drums

    Hi Guys, My band practices in a garage (20'x20') and the the drummer's drums are super loud..we use a lot of dynamics in our music so I do not want to sacrafice this...he does have skill and can play quietly on some things, but for the dynamics he needs to be able to wail a little bit at...

    I have a taylor 314ce..it's a limited edition from 2001 and it has solid imbuia on the back and sides..it's tuned down 1/2 step and strung with phosphor bronze strings..very even and warm sounding... some taylors are too jangly and bright for me but this one is great.. imho, the best sounding...

    Best acoustic soundhole pickup??

    Thanks Matt..I PM you and then realized I'd posted it here as well..DOH! what I've done is take the high "b" and "e" string pole pieces completely out...that really balanced the pickup across the strings... I've tried it through some tube amps, ART tube MP preamp, lr bagg's para-acoustic DI...

    Best acoustic soundhole pickup??

    I have a backup guitar with an EMG ACS soundhole pickup.. you're one of the few people that I've seen that also has one (I bought mine locally on a whim).. what is your opinion of that pickup and have you found any preamps or EQ's that work well with it? I do like the adjustable pole pieces...

    LRBaggs Para DI

    Hi Drew, I have a friend with an IBeam and it feeds back pretty easily... try one of these first: http://www.worldmusicsupply.com/cart/pics.asp?Prod=FBR2 you can probably get them at your local music store for around $6. it'll stifle your acoustic tone but your plugged-in tone won't be so...

    The absolute best acoustic pickup???

    I've been using pickup-the-world pickups (stealth UST and the the NT3) and have had great luck with high gain before feedback and natural tone. here's the system I use now and it is very flexible (any combination of the UST, SBT and magnetic)...

    LRBaggs Para DI

    well, I've used a padi for over a year with my live rig..it's a great EQ/DI box.. it will help with feedback and tone shaping (I have that same amp as well), but you may have other problems causing the feedback that can be addressed...depending on your setup..can you give me some details? what...

    Live/recording dynamic mic help

    Hi Guys, I'm really sick of only having an sm58..it's too muddy for me when singing close and I use a wide dynamic range in my singing..when I perform I pull on and off of the mic to keep the level even, but the proxmity of the 58 just adds mud when I'm in close on some softer sections.. I...

    Acoustic guitar strings - what's you favorite brand(s)?

    I am partial to john pearse phosphor bronze...their 80/20'1 are great as well...really smooth for a non-coated string and they have great tone.

    Whats your fav acoustic PU???

    i have a putw stealth installed in a taylor 314ce. it's wired to the onboard fishman prefix+ preamp. awesom sound. here's a couple of pages doing side-by-side comparison's of a lot of pickup systems, though imho, UST are not meant to be used this way (they have to be used with a preamp, EQ or...

    Tech 21 Acoustic DI?

    Hi, I have a friend who has the tech 21 bass driver and it sounds awesome..but I use the lr baggs para-acoustic DI (PADI) with my acoustic and love it. It does have more eq than the tech 21..and it's cheaper. It is one piece of gear I always use. $125 here...
