Could someone explain the logic around
this 6th 4th and first string only training method. this is single note training? Last edited by varmonter; 01-18-2018 at 06:05 AM. |

If you were to play all of the strings when training it, the Tonedexter would receive frequencies in multiple phases and would be all like “wut” and your waveform would sound weird. Hence, if you want to train these pickups you need to play on strings that are all in the same phase to get a good waveform. Personally, I would worry you’d still have unavoidable bleed through on those crystals but Doug and others have made it work so maybe I’ll give it a try one day.

Thank you, Doug Young, for the tip on how to train the TD for the Barbera Soloist using strings 2, 4 & 6! I am expecting a guitar soon (a custom Emerald carbon fiber nylon string) that has the Soloist and I was wondering how to train it with the TD.
I wonder how the wave map created using strings 2,4 & 6 would compare to creating a wave map using strings 1, 3 & 5? Best regards, Tom |

On the LB6, train using the E A D E … skip the G and B strings. To me, it feels wacky and not very musical while training, but it works.

The K&K elements are all in phase with each other, so you are free to train with all strings. The Barbera Soloist and the Baggs LB6 are the only two pickups that have particular strings that are out of phase … at lease, I don't know of any others.

How would a Baggs Anthem work? Need to use strings 6,4 & 2? I have another Guitar with Fishman Aura VT Enhance. Would that work well for training?

As far as I know, the Baggs LB6 and the Barbera Soloist are the only pickups that need to be trained using only particular strings. All other pickups are trained as normal, that is: strumming, picking, or a combination on all strings. The LB6 and Soloists are the exceptions, not the rule. 2) Again, I have no experience with Fishman Aura VT enhance, however it would seem like using a ToneDexter with an Aura is not optimum. The Aura already processes the pickup system in a similar way to the TD. |

Cannot change the Aura image in the Fishman VT enhance. It is 'baked in'. But the guitar sounds better acoustically than it does amplified, so maybe it would still be better with the TD.
