Yeah, I love the idea of that - very innovative solution. But I've gotten away from K&Ks and pickups that require superglue, and I'm not sure I have the problem the Ultra Tonic was meant to solve - I almost never play very loud and don't get the problem with feedback or a boomy low end, at least not typically.

Doug, which pickup do you favor now (that doesn’t require superglue?)...

It's such a wonderful experience to play my guitar and have it actually sound like my guitar. Really a thrill.

I recall that the Aura Spectrum battery life is 20 hrs. It would be great if TD is in the same ballpark. |

That's one way to beat piezo quack, have it everywhere so it can't be contrasted against anything else.

The 184 is what I've mostly used. Yes, James doesn't recommend it, due to the presence peak, I think. But I've tried everything from an SM57 to a high end ribbon mic, and they all "work", you just get different tones, just as you'd expect from using different mics for recording. So it's a matter of taste. The KM184 works really well for live amplification (micing) of acoustic guitar, so it's not a surprise to me that it works well for training ToneDexter. If you read the review somewhere (Sound on Sound?) that talks about Peter Frampton's use of ToneDexter, they made wavemaps with all kinds of mics that aren't the recommended list, and they pick and choose from them during shows, depending on what sounds right.

I'm using Trance in most of my guitars. I have 2 Dazzo installs, which use glue, but at least not superglue. There are lots of good pickups that don't need superglue: B-Band, McIntyre, Schatten SBTs, or of course non-SBT options, like the Barbera undersaddle, which is virtually quack-free.

Marshall, what is the battery you are using, and what are you using for power cables?
And Doug, you are the Pied Piper of Tonedexter (meaning that, of course, in a good way). It was your original video demo that sold me on the unit. I use a Ear Trumpet Edwina condenser mike to train with, which is actually a medium sized diaphragm rather than a large diaphragm. It works very well for me, but is not on the recommended list.

I love my Tonedexter. I have some great sounding wave maps. I get great tones without any feedback. It would be cool if it could run off phantom power.

That would bo cool but I think the standard phantom power delivers 10mA and the ToneDexter draws 500mA or more.
A 9 volt battery has a capacity of 500-1200mAh (depending on the type) so it should run for short while before the volage drops too far, and the current goes up for that reason. Check that the battery doesn't get hot! |
