On the pedal board for our gigs I just go into a boss QE7 eq then into an LR Baggs Venue DI. For pa we use an EV 30M tower array, which has a mixer on an app that we use with Bluetooth with the ipad. Thereās reverb and compression in that app so I use a little of those for the guitar. Couple of other things for whatever itās worth - my guitars have the LR Baggs Anthem pickups, which are a combo under saddle and mic in the body, you can blend between the two. IMO is the only acoustic pickup out there that starts to sound realistic and not quacky when plugged in. I spent a fair amount of time on this over the last 4 years and thatās the conclusion I came to. The other thing we do is run vocals through TC Helicon Duplicator pedals. But we leave the doubling and pitch correction completely off. Just use a little reverb from that pedal (club setting). But the magic in that pedal is in whatever the little tone button is - compression, de esser I think - but it absolutely brings the vocals to life. We also use a aux out to a QSC 8.2 just to fill up the area better. QSCs are expensive but they sound so much better than all the other powered speakers itās crazy. If we need to cover a big space I use a QSC 12.2. Sometimes we also use an 8.2 as a floor wedge. Personally I would stay away from Bose at all costs. But lots of people use them so who knows. In that setup there is an awful lot of eq going on - the GE7, the Venue, and in the mixer itself, both channel specific and overall. So if you go that way, or any way really, youāll want spend a bunch of time dialing in before the gig. And then youāll likely need to tweak a bit to taste for the first few songs. Iāve found that you need enough bass to sound like too much bass to your ears up close for there to be enough bass for the audience. Iāll get a pic of my settings for you in a bit. For whatever itās worth, we pretty much get complimented on our sound every gig. Itās not that hard to make it sound good. And in my experience most people who do acoustic gigs donāt sound great. I donāt know if they just canāt hear it, or donāt want to take the time to make it better, or just donāt care. Our system isnāt complicated at all, anyone should be able to figure it out. I still like to do open mics when I can and every single one of those Iāve been to has sounded horrible. Just my $.02 based on a couple hundred acoustic gigs. Acoustic Guitar Forums has a pretty good section on acoustic amplification if you really want to nerd out on this stuff. They are all super high on the Grace Designs Alix preamp. Supposedly itās the holy grail, but is $800 so I havenāt stepped up to try that out.
