A couple weeks ago, I released a video where I took my acoustic guitar with a LR Baggs Element Piezo pickup and turned it into a guitar that sounded like it was mic'd up using an Earthworks SR25 microphone.
I achieved this using my LR Baggs Voiceprint DI acoustic preamp, which I highly recommend for anyone looking for an acoustic preamp. This DI has the ability to capture the sound of your acoustic guitar using the microphone from your mobile phone, and create a "Voiceprint" or an "Impulse Response" of your acoustic guitar. As a result, your pickup will sound more like your actual guitar than a pickup.
I'm sure we can all agree that an acoustic guitar pickup makes playing live very convenient, but often times fails to deliver an exact life-like copy tone of your guitar. This is is a problem where LR Baggs have been looking to solve for years, and many of their incredible pickups are the top of the line products when it comes to acoustic pickups.
HOWEVER, I wanted to take it a step further; rather than using the microphone from your phone, I wanted to create a voiceprint using an external microphone. I was curious as to the difference it would make. Which led me to test my theory.
Long story short, the results were amazing, and I wanted to help more people achieve this as well. The video above explains my method of how I achieved this, and how you can do it yourself.
