Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right place for my queery, but its the closest topic I could find on here. Anyway, I've been playing guitar and singing for about 8 years now (mainly as a hobby). Lately I've decided to get out on the live scene to do some acoustic gigs. Reverse gamertag lookup download youtube. Basically all I wanna know is what gear do you recommend I need? Carlsbro Eclipse 12 channel mixer with effects. Carlsbro Eclipse 12 600W Powered Mixer With FX Carlsbro Eclipse 12 Powered Mixing. Original Manual. Currently I have: Taylor 210 fitted with a Fishman Acoustic Matrix Preamp Shure Mic (not sure of model) Carlsbro Eclipse 12 PA 2 x Peavey Hisys1 tops Boss tuner, chorus etc. Do I need a DI box for the acoustic or is it ok going straight into the desk? Also should it be active or passive if I need one? I have no monitor either. Any help at all would be great, I want a nice clear and crisp sound on the acoustic and vocal. I've set up what I got at home and the sound is muffled and poor. Not sure if I'm missing something or if my tops are shagged. Carlsbro Eclipse 12 ManualThanks in advance for the help. You should DI the guitar so the impedance and level going into the desk are correct, and an active DI is better than a passive one. DI'd guitar will never sound natural though, since you have a nice taylor acoustic and you don't have to worry about other noise onstage i'd recommend sticking a mic on the guitar, for a crisp sound a dynamic mic like sure sm57 pointing at the 12th fret (experiment a bit) and blend this with the DI'd sound. Plenty of people gig with just DI'd guitar but if you do want a 'proper' acoustic sound this would help. Does the desk have a graphic EQ or effects on it? Sysinfotools pst merge tool. If not i'd recommend getting these too (graphic/reverb/compressor) although as i said above plenty of people do without this stuff, but if you want a really nice sound you shouldnt). ![]() Thanks for the info, the desk i have has graphic equalizer aswell as effects like reverb and delay. I'm not too bothered about these but might try a touch of reverb to sweeten the sound. So u think i should blend the sound of a di box and a mic?
