I wish I could try this set up in a loud environment. I feel like I could probably control the feedback but at the same time I can see it being a nightmare. I did a show on the weekend with a Fishman Matrix pickup and even with the monitors at a lower volume, I was getting feedback.

And for that matter, feedback is often a function of amp placement. I play on a loud stage but hardly ever have problems because if how I position my amp and monitor.

But it seems you have the ability to make your adjustments as necessary, and that really is the true skill many are after. |

It's the Matrix blend with the mic. However, I never use the mic because it's fairly useless and the gooseneck is not stable at all, which is why I want to pull this system out ASAP. I was only getting feedback in the monitors which is easy enough to control. I just find that it made me question whether a SBT+Lyric set up would be ideal or not.

Is it direct guitar feedback... as in the guitar sound from the monitor is feeding the guitar and causing the feedback to occur? Or is it other sounds (vocals, other instruments) that are causing the guitar to resonate? In either case, repositioning the monitor should help a LOT. Back to the SBT/Lyric, it generally is NOT as feedback resistant as a UST. So I'd encourage you to figure out a solution with the Matrix (no mic) first before moving on to the SBT/Lyric setup. Forgive me if I'm misunderstanding or oversimplifying the situation... I realize these things are complicated!

Simplest thing for you is to buy a Lyric and wire in the Matrix UST to the ring and mix it yourself. You already have the UST, no need to buy the K&K for a first shot at this.

Also, can I wire the active Fishman Matrix to the Lyric? |

Oh, forgot the Matrix was active. No, the 2nd source into the Lyric must be passive. You could call Fishman and see if it works passively... most UST's will. The active part just boosts the signal and applies some EQ.

Just want to express some thanks to rschultz, Doug and everyone on this thread. I've finally made the decision to yank the ES out of my Taylor 700 series and replace it with a pure mini + lyric system.
I'm going to try my hand at integrating the K&K ultra preamp onboard with the lyric as well, summing it to mono at the Taylor ES endpin. I've started a thread in the amplification forum so I'll document my efforts. Thanks again. |

- Condenser mic aimed at 14th fret only - Taylor ES with flat EQ - Lyric only - K&K only - K&K + Lyric blended to the best sound possible We'll see how it goes. |
