Be prepared to experience the natural, studio-quality sound of your acoustic-electric guitar on any stage with the AD-2 Acoustic Preamp. This compact, high-quality pedal is powered by an advanced BOSS sound engine, offering sophisticated processing capabilities that defy its small size and intuitive interface.
The AD-2 Acoustic Preamp is designed to reproduce the complex resonance characteristics of your unplugged tone, thanks to its innovative Acoustic Resonance feature. This feature analyzes the input signal as you play, employing advanced processing to beautifully recreate your guitar's naturally evolving tone. With a simple twist of the one-knob control, you can adjust multiple parameters within the AD-2, achieving the perfect tonal balance for any style, from delicate fingerpicking to intense strumming.
This versatile acoustic preamp also offers an Ambience effect, allowing you to dial in pro-level reverberation that's perfectly optimized for acoustic guitar. Unlike standard reverbs that can cloud your guitar's sound, the optimized BOSS algorithms in the AD-2 produce lush, deep ambience that perfectly complements your instrument's voice.
The AD-2 Acoustic Preamp is also equipped with essential stage tools such as a notch filter for feedback control, a balanced DI out for direct connection to a PA, and a convenient mute function for tuning and switching guitars. It features two independent outputs for performance flexibility. Connect the Output jack to your acoustic guitar amp or stage monitor, and use the Line Out to send a balanced signal direct to the PA mixer.
For those who encounter low-frequency feedback issues on stage, the AD-2's notch filter has you covered. As soon as you hear that familiar rumble, just turn the Notch knob until it goes away. It's that easy!
In conclusion, the AD-2 Acoustic Preamp is a durable, portable, and innovative solution for musicians seeking to enhance their acoustic guitar's sound with professional-grade reverb and resonance.
