No processing whatsoever.



If you're aiming for the sound of a mic but just want to use a cheap pickup, this is as close as the world offers right now.
Fantastic! Thank you for putting this comparison together so quickly! I think it Certainly improves the tone considerably. I currently use a fishman aura di with matrix infinity. Do you have any experience with the aura? And if so how does the overall sound compare? Just trying to work out if I should sell the aura when they begin shipping to the uk!
