Am I likely to have feedback issues with mic on an acoustic guitar vs a pickup? I use fairly decent cardiods but the Martins seem to grab room sounds.

The harmonizer is designed to have an unbalanced HiZ input from the Guitar, not a balanced LoZ input from a mike.. I have not used a miked guitar with the harmonizer but suspect you will not be happy with the result. And yes I suspect you will have serious feedback issuers.

Yes. You might, this is a harmony pedal for vocals, what your looking for is a pre-amp for a condenser mic. Check out the ART Tube MP or Presonus Tube Pre, quality wise on a budget Presonus is your best bet. If your recording acoustic guitar with a condenser, it is highly recommended that you use a pre-amp to add warmth and an EQ to add color.

I think most of your feedback issues will come from stage monitors pointing back at you. I sometime play with a guy that used a mic and he has no problems at all.

I have used a high z adapter when using a mic on my '68 Martin D-12 20 and not had feedback issues.

No. This will not contribute to feedback. I use a Gibson Songwriter with mine.

I use the VoiceTone with an acoustic run direct so the only sound going in the unit is from the guitar. I don't think you'll have feedback issues as much as your harmonies may be effected from other sounds from the stage entering the mics. Good hypercardioid mics may help with this however if you are the only sound source than it may not be an issue.

This ish sounds good acoustically. I jam acoustically w some dudes! You can hear it whilst playing w guitar, banjo, and even a loud mando.

I would recommend Elixir strings for any acoustic guitar. They're a little more expensive but are well worth it. They do last longer, play a little easier and reduce string talk in a way no other string I've tried comes close.

Did it work? I've read some pickups arent "loud" enough for Rocksmith - looking for one myself!

after hand surgery i changed my washburn acoustic to nylon (most washburns have high enough action -wouldn't try it on an ovation or ibanez) it was excellent. BUT you must adjust. you'll figure it out. i used to tune in a higher key for less buzz but that is not necessary. gotta tell ya you'll lose volume and briteness & acoustic "clarity" but it is a sweet mellow sound; but i love bottom end.

It works fine on an acoustic but will never quite sound like an electric or an acoustic - somewhere in between I guess if you don't have an electric it will suffice.If you have a large 'Jumbo' guitar then it might be bit of a stretch from the headphone to the input jack - could pull the phones off when you move, twist etc. A major flaw in the design as I said in my review of it.

Fairly good pick up with this Mic and depending on the software and how well you adjust the input it should do a great job for you. I have been using this mic for a year now for podcasting and have been able to narrow the pick up range to cut out the majority of ambient noise..

Yes. You may wish to read the post at "http://zendrum.com/forums/index.php?topic=3829.0" about better sound using the mic input.Also see "http://www.ionaudio.com/products/details/discover-guitar-live-bundle"

I installed the K&K; mini in my Martin DSR (D for dreadnought). The tone is very faithful to the unplugged tone of the guitar. However, as I wrote in an earlier review, a preamp for EQ & especially volume boost is beneficial but otherwise this pickup is excellent.

I run the blended pickup signal (humbucker and piezo) into an electric amp and it sounds great. The acoustic sound is definitely a "piezo sound" in that it sounds reasonably acoustic-like, but it's not the same as mic'ing a plain old acoustic guitar.I play a mostly clean tone and it works really well for me- if you start kicking in lots of gain or distortion, the piezo pickup can respond in odd ways.

It sounds like an electric guitar, as expected it's a magnetic pickup made for electric guitar string not acoustic strings (bronze, etc) I think that's good, there are more string choices available for electrics. When you buy this pickup you must change your acoustic guitar strings to electric strings, it will sound more balance and louder. All acoustic pickups sound electric.

The Rode is a good mic but I would go to a Guitar Center if available and see what their tech guys say. You will need more than just the mic but also mixer and preamp but again check with them

Yeah ....I use the shure sm58 and the rode m1...but I recommend using the shure beata 58 or any super cardoroid microphone instead of using dynamic because the dynamic picks up other sounds around you. if you are using the looping feature.But if its just use for singing then any microphone is fine

I have two acoustic guitars and they work fine on both. They are a little easier on the fingers than heavier strings. If you are a beginner I would definitely recommend these until your fingers are tougher, then consider going to a heavier string.

I like the effects for vox, the preamps are decent, and I think the guitars would do fine through there. Be aware that the main outputs are 1/4" so you should get highend 1/4" to xlr cables if that's how you plan on getting into your qsc speakers, unless they have 1/4" inputs too.

My acoustic sounds great through the box. You can add chorus, delay, reverb, phlanger, etc..., and there's even a 12-string setting.

You can definitely relax, this thing works really well. I got a decent mic stand, and it works fine. I use a 12 string acoustic on it, and I was very concerned about tipping. It balances just fine provided you don't bump into the stand. Hope this was a help.
