ToneDexter has yet to be released (some time in April is the target date), but there's been a huge amount of discussion on it here. Its similar in concept to Aura, except that the user must create his/her own "WaveMap" for a particular instrument/pickup rig by having ToneDexter simultaneously monitor the pickup signal and the miked instrument signal while playing the instrument for a minute or two. The WaveMap is employed later, with that particular instrument/pickup rig, when using TonedDexter for instrument amplification. Its similar in concept to having an Aura preamp and being able to make do-it-yourself custom sound images for several of your instruments. (We're all hoping it'll work even better than Aura with custom sound images, but that remains to be reported on by actual customers. The demo recordings are certainly encouraging to me.) Oops. I should've included a link to the website. http://audiosprockets.com/ Last edited by guitaniac; 03-31-2017 at 02:51 PM. |

I should mention that since my earlier posts on the topic of mixed phase pickups like the Barbera Soloist and the Baggs LB6, we have improved our training algorithm to be more forgiving.
One of our beta testers has trained up with a Barbera Soloist and is getting stellar results. That pickup has every other element out of phase. In order to successfully train, he just played on every other string during the training period. I believe, though am not sure, that this is the same wiring scheme used by the LB6 as well. If it is, it ought to be usable. We just haven't had a chance to try one yet. Soon I hope...

The Barbera Soloist saddle material is reportedly very unplugged-friendly. Perhaps the Barbera/ToneDexter combo will end up being the ideal rig for those who want to "have it all" with respect to unplugged tone, amplified tone and optimum feedback rejection. |
