I am new to this ax8, and I'm wondering how to get an acoustic sound while still using my electric guitar. I've heard this can be done, so hopefully someone can guide me. Thanks!
I would love to see the 'Multi-Comp' block added to the AX8. I use it in my Acoustic simulation preset(s). I had to use a single 'Comp' block with some (parallel) 'Filter' blocks to get something workable.Multi band compression is also useful to because electric and acoustic guitars have different attack and sustain characteristics.
I think @Moke acoustic simulator is the best. https://www.custompresets.com/store/p34/Moke's_'Acoustic_Simulator'_V3.2_-_For_Humbucker_Pickups_(AX8).html
It's not easily done - You have to have an IR that translates the EQ curve from your electric guitar to the EQ curve from an acoustic guitar
There is also this free pack from @fremen which is quite good. https://fremenpresets.com/downloads/ax8-acoustic-simulation/

I use Moke's preset live for Crazy Little Thing Called Love and Come On Eileen, and a few others - sounds great!
Thanks everyone for feedback! Sounds like Moke would be a good bet
At the risk of sounding stupid (not my first time), since you can't create IRs with the AX8, how are you AX8 users creating an IR of your electric to translate in Moke's magic simulator?I think @Moke acoustic simulator is the best. https://www.custompresets.com/store/p34/Moke's_'Acoustic_Simulator'_V3.2_-_For_Humbucker_Pickups_(AX8).html

In my case, the IR was created in the 'Tone Match' block of the Axe-Fx II or III. Then exported as an IR.At the risk of sounding stupid (not my first time), since you can't create IRs with the AX8, how are you AX8 users creating an IR of your electric to translate in Moke's magic simulator?
