JuJu Kwan Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I'm considering getting an acoustic guitar simulator. At this time I can't afford another guitar, nor could I justify one. Does anyone have any experience with a simulator? Oops, stupid me. My Zoom ms50 has one and I didn't even know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caevan O’Shite Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I'm considering getting an acoustic guitar simulator. At this time I can't afford another guitar, nor could I justify one. Does anyone have any experience with a simulator? Oops, stupid me. My Zoom ms50 has one and I didn't even know it. Let us know how you like it! There was one in the DigiTech GNX4 that I used, in parallel with real-live tube-amps and some good pedals in front of both, with a band I was in. The "acoustic guitar simulator" in it sounded passable. I think these sound best and most convincing with a little reverb. When I used that effect, I sent the simulated acoustic guitar sound direct to the PA and monitors, and not at all to my guitar amp, unless I was trying to double acoustic and electric sounds simultaneously in parallel. A very nice sound for this as well as real acoustic-electric guitars is to use a "plate reverb" style reverb and a little chorus (in my opinion, the best chorus for the job is the classic old- or re-issue- TC Electronic Stereo Chorus/Flanger pedal), ESPECIALLY if there's any way that only the reverb can be chorused/modulated, leaving the acoustic-electric guitar sound UN-chorused.

Larryz Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 <---you might give the Boss AC-3 a look-see...I would just save up and hold out for an acoustic/electric one of these days (maybe find a used one). Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
