I haven't tried the B9 with acoustic, but I love the Mel9. I'm using it along with an EH Ravish Sitar for an effects heavy project, and they're just a blast! The cello patch on the Mel9 combines very well with the Ravish.

I haven't used it on acoustic, either. I use it with a volume pedal and compressor on an electric.

I have a pedal board that looks about as crowded;
a. Pandora stomp b. VE 20 c. same looper d. boss DR3 drum machine e. passive mixer f. wah pedal g. stomp box Yes, the OP is right. If you are going solo acoustic and cannot vary the sound, its going to get you not hired. Shawn Philips, waaay back in the 70s had the same kind of board, with 6 guitars on a rack and held entire audiences all night solo. With my rig I can stay acoustic, or throw on the Strat and suddenly have a 3 piece band. One thing though, OP, your wife makes all the diff. Having 2 artists perform is waaay better for dancing then one. Just more energy on stage. |

I probably thought EQ is EQ, a compressor is like any other compressor and reverb is reverb ... how wrong I was In the beginning, for me, the worst contenders were always EQ and compression. So I started looking for external units. To get a good EQ you can spend many hundreds. Same goes for compressors ... it may even be more difficult to find than EQ. Like you, I've gone through a few and have a nice collection. The same could be said about reverb ... it is amazing what a good reverb can sound like and I would never go back to the multieffect unit offerings. In the end, you get what you pay for in pedals and effects ... which i suppose, when you do the maths, is logical really.

As someone who just bought a Zoom A3 in hopes that it would solve his multi-instrumentalist needs and simplify the submixing live rig only to find that it doesn't and won't and will be selling it ASAP, I agree.

I don't have the Empress but have the Carl Martin ParaQ and AER Pocket Tools ParaQ ... both similar to the Empress just with a different feature sets.

Yeah, but a boy can dream, can't he?
I'm willing to accept some slightly less robust EQing if it means that the rig gets radically simplified, but it's just not going to work. Now I'm trying to determine what body part to sell for a Grace Felix.... Quote:
