Greetings,
I am seeking to better understand how the FM3 might be used as a Direct Input (DI) box for use with a piezo transducer-equipped acoustic guitar. I am just trying to grasp how the FM3 "sees" an acoustic signal, and what might be a good general strategy for such use. Specifically:
Is there a predominant thought or rationale regarding using an "Amp" block and/or "Cab" block in the Preset signal chain? This is really the main crux of my question: are amp and cab blocks within the Preset typically recommended for a good acoustic tone -- when using the FM3 as a DI?
Also, am I correct that an Input block and an Output block must be inserted at the start and end of ANY acoustic Preset -- even for use only as a DI?
Thanks for any help.
