Default acoustic pedal suggestion

Hey guys,

I was wondering what kind of set ups for a live board would be. I play acoustic for my church and I would love to see pictures or read what your boards are like. Here's my line up

Ernie ball volume pedal< LRB para DI< boss chromatic tuner< boss super chorus < EH holy grail< boss digital delay then to board.

Anything I can change or add to make it sound Better? I'm just looking to expand a little more.

What kind of pickup/guitar are you using? UST, mag, ES? Makes a difference on the pedals to choose from-modeling, effects, etc...

A Fishman AURA 16 would be good. I have the Taylor 210e and Fishman has a number of images for the 210. You can dial in a very natural sound with the AURA.

I don't have a current shot of my pedal board, but currently it is:

Fishman Aura>Boss RV5>Hardwire RV7>Boss RC-2>LR Baggs PADI>
My Boss TU2 is on my electric board, so I just use a Snark headstock tuner for my acoustic.

My key pedal for my acoustic tone is the Aura. It really helps the guitar sound more "mic'd" and less "plugged in." The other night I just ran direct through the LR Baggs, and was amazed at how much I missed the subtle touch of the Aura.

Another option is to look into an additional reverb. I love changing the depth of the sound for different attack (strumming vs fingerpicking etc). The Hardwire reverb is a beautiful and natural sounding reverb IMO, and works really nicely for acoustic - especially the room and hall settings. The Boss RV5 can be a bit sterile and bright for acoustic for my taste, but the modulated mode sounds amazing and spacious. So I leave the RV7 on "room" for most of the set, and then kick in the modulated RV5 when the occasion calls for it.
