Axe-Fx II clip with acoustic guitar - patch added
Hi,
with one of my bands we're playing "unplugged" gigs and on stage I'm using two acoustic guitars with B-Band UST pickups. My main guitar with this band is a steelstring, the other one (which I only use for a few songs to give them a different flavor) is a nylon stringed guitar, it's an Ibanez EWN30SYE-NT. While the preset I made for the band works live very well, I never tried how it turns up for recording so I did a quick test.
For the rhythm guitars I only recorded a single run through the chord progression and then looped it in GarageBand then I panned these two to the left and right and recorded the last track over that loop. The pickup on the guitar is a B-Band UST (Under Saddle Transducer) and the controls on the guitar are set to a neutral setting. For recording I used the USB connection from the Axe II into my Mac. There are no effects active in GarageBand and absolutely no other processing than from the Axe-Fx II.
If you don't want to fall asleep while listening please do yourself a favour and - like we used to do in the pre-USB times with axe-Edit - get yourself a big hot and fresh cup of Java before you click here:
