Recommendations for best profile for use with an acoustic guitar fitted with a piezo pick up?

  • I'm using Acoustic B a lot for my Ovation. This was part of one of the early Rig packs. You can open the Rig Reference List on the KEMPER web page, find and click on Acoustic B, and download the first Rig packs. Then you can selectively import the Rigs for acoustic guitar via Rig Manager or USb memory drive.

    And i made profiles with the Tonedexter Pedal (

    are you interested in a workflow to get you the "perfect" acoustic guitar sound with you piezo? all you would need is a audio interface a daw and a eq match plugin ...


    the problem is, acoustic gutiars sound so drastically different that profiles are not perfectly fitting for other guitars, so the best way woul be either

    profiling a channelstrip with a great EQ or a tonematch of your miced acoustic guitar

  • Thank you very much guys :) that made my day :)i really appreciate that.

    "ToneD-Fishmag" is this one https://www.fishman.com/produc…agnetic-soundhole-pickup/

    "Tone D -EBass" Is a Sanberg heavy relic pbass where i match eqed the normal string sound with a measurement mic

    "ToneD Egit" is the same with a Electric guitar

    "ToneD KBass Mag" is a Kontrabass/Doublebass with a magnetic pickup (noname jazzbass pickup) and matched to different mics (MXL 603s, rode nt1, measurement mic, akg d112)

    "Tone D KBass Piezo" is the same but the source sound was this pickup https://www.thomann.de/de/shadow_shsb1.htm (pretty cheap but i liked the previews)

    "ToneD Shitgit" was a EKO spencer cs 12 classical guitar i got for 5€ with a horrible chinese piezo for 1€ and i tried to make it sound good with a lot of eqing and tonematching so that people with a similar crappy instrument have a almost fitting waveform :D

    "Tone D Bass" is a Caraya sp91 eo/N acoustic bass also with a measurement mic, the mxl, and the audio technica mk2k

    "Tone D Magn" Is the magnetic pickup of a crafter sa

    "Tone D Mart" was a Black Martinguitar for a round 800€. I can't remember the name of it, sorry! i used the mxl and the measurement mic mainly

    "Tone D Meas" Is my LAG tramontane with the mesaurement mic in different postitions and different settings on the preamp

    "Tone D WGit" Is the same but with my MXL 603 and the sm57 and also different preamp eq settings.


    This is all i can remember ...I hope this helps. the workflow was so long and boring that my documentation was pretty bad :D

  • Thanks guys for all the responses (and sorry for not acknowledging all your contributions); been very busy with work and must have notifications turned off as I have not learned of your responses before now.


    Particular thanks to Bommel - I'd already heard very good things about the ToneDexter so that's something I'll definitely be looking in to!


    Thanks again everyone!
