What pedal is that one?
I definitely need to get one. I play my twelve string at church and tend to get carried away and it becomes too loud. A compression pedal would definitely help! Than I s for this video!!
That pickup sounds horrible, piezo needs to be augmented with a IR pedal
Compression video from dudes whose audio is waaaaaaay overworked with compression ????????????
If you avoid piezoelectric, under saddle pickups in the first place, it will require less gear to fix the terrible sound.
and I think it would be interesting if the guitar was tuned properly…….
Ends every sentence with an A sound WTF?
I think it would be interesting if the pedal had hardening and soft knee compression as well
sounds dead with compression
Nice compressor! But the guitar doesn't sound in tune to me and has fretbuzz on the e snare… Annoying!
What is the best compression pedal for acoustic, well some of the best?
Why can’t you at least tune?
Annoyingly out of tune guitar ????????. And again illustrating why Takamine electro acoustics are a million miles better with their CT4Bii preamp system
Super helpful
All compression in the world isn't going to help that gawd awful quacky piezo pickup in that guitar. Yikes.
Things get serious when the blindfolds come out!!
Great work Sean and Sean, hopefully you will help more guitarist discover the tone hack that is a simple compressor pedal for their acoustic pedalboard.
