Thanks I bought and built this exact set up...I'm loving it

I too have the LR Baggs Acoustic DI Session and its the best pedal Ive bought period, It goes to every acoustic gig i attend and gives you a crystal clear and professional acoustic sound!!!

Hey Chloe. Is the session better than the venue? Or would you say the venue is better? :)

Beautiful pedalboard!!! Even more beautiful sounds!!! I might have to copy some of this!!!

I dig your approach going through the loop on the Venue through the Session. Cool idea!

this is so inspiring. this’ll be my next pedalboard project.

i really love the sound of the guitar and all pedals

I'm new to the Acoustic Guitar World, and have been trying to figure out what sounds and configurations could be beneficial. This one is pretty sweet as it's very compact and portable. Cool that!

I'm envious of your guitar

Love that shimmer!

Lovely. Need more acoustic board demos like this one. Cool set up. Gives me some ideas. Just added the Anthem to my guitars. Great pickup. Love Neunaber and LRB stuff too, so this is really helpful.

Extremely fine demo . . just need (more) info on the different pedals

Nice set up.

Incredibly bright sound. What are you playing, sound system setup?

Great set up. Very helpful to me. It does sound a bit lacking in bass?

Sounds bright.....good highs.....and mid. What amp are we hearing?

Curious what kind of pedal board that you use.......really like your setup. Going to get a Venue for my D-28 CW with a Baggs Lyric.

Hey! You said XLR goes to PA. Can it go to an amp also?

Is the sound coming through an Acoustic guitar amp, PA or is it just going to an audio interface??

Hi, I have a similar set up but with the addition of Origin effects Compressor. Where should I put the compressor in the chain?

Hi, just to check that using 2 DI will give the option of muting all the effects at once? Thanks!

Please elaborate on your Venue going into your session and not vice versa. I own the session and was considering getting the align eq. I was going to put my effects on my amps effects loop however the session and eq to the front of the amp. Thoughts? Thanks

Man, this is a beautiful acoustic pedalboard! I really love how it sounds and even looks. ;) Good job there. I am just building my own acoustic rig and this video was pretty good motivation for me. Thanks. ;) Greetings from Czech Republic.

Uuuggg….Quack Quack

Nice. Anything you can do to make an acoustic solo act more interesting right?

inspiring setup...thanks for the share...! question though....why are you using the effect loop in the venue...? in this config wouldnt it also make sense just putting everything in series..?

What size pedal board is that?

Curtis if you were to incorporate a looper. Where in the chain would it sit. I have pretty much the same pedals but I also have a POG octave pedal an a looper. Appreciate your help here 😄 Also may I ask on your session DI what is your high pass filter set to. Would 80hz roll off be correct.

have you gotten a chance to try out a Grace design Bix? I did and it made me want to throw my LR Baggs Paracoustic DI box into a fire.

I’ve used a Radial Tone Bone PZ Pre for around 8 years, sold it twice and tried other Pre’s, then dumped them about bout the PZ again (Now the PZ Pro is out...yikes.) I tried the setup like you, touting to the Session end of the chain..just to noisy. Maybe didn’t play well with the PZ Pre?

Can I use the session DI with other pedals ? For example if I had an overdrive, a delay and the session DI, what would be my signal path?

man great video, i have the venue , but i have like 5 guitar effects, does it matter the amount of effect on the send and return?

What is the size of the pedalboard case?

What acoustic pickup are you using? Sounds so natural!😊

What’s the dimension of your board ?

What made you go with the session di over the align series session pedal?

Venue or tonewood?

Great review! Your board is kool too!

Bro I’m a worshiper i like to copy this set up wow love the strumming. God bless. Thanks brother

I've kinda been a raw acoustic sound kind of guy. It's my favorite sound but after hearing what you got going on I need your setup! Maybe not the delay. But I play worship for my youth group and I'm the only vocal and instrument and that reverb/shimmer pedal would be awesome to have! Also I've been looking for a preamp because my sound guy says he has me up as loud as I can go and I kinda don't believe it but if I'm getting a low signal I'll want to get a preamp to boost that signal. Now I'm going to go look them up and probably by astonish at the prices but great video man and great sound!

If you really like the shimmer you might want to try going with the electro harmonics canyon they’re only about 140 bucks that’s the most beautiful out of the box setting ever and all the other delays in modulations and it has a looper best $140 on the market

The Canyon does sound great. I can vouch for the shimmer on the TC Hall of Fame 2 as I use that one. Doesn't have delays or looping, just reverb.

But what is the point of reverb and delay if the output from session DI is mono output especially for solo performance..

wow man. are you micing up the guitar here tho? Acoustics always sound super when miced. If not, awesome as that plugged in tone is amazing. Hard to get a plugged in tone sound great on acoustic

What guitar is he using here?Edit,heard at the end what guitar is used.

Have you ever tried running the venue last? Most of the time I compress before I eq and add effects. Just wondering what your thoughts on that are. I have the anthem and the session. Considering getting the venue for eq and effects loop.

@s2seltaeb

I'm trying to figure that out, too. The Session DI seems nice, but I still think the Venue DI is better, because it has the Boost foot switch, which is nice for when you're about to solo and need a little push in the mix. The only problem is the Venue takes up more room.

@GreenIce101

The Venue is definitely more advanced and feature-laden. I have the Session and, while fairly simple, it really sounds great. It's got a built in high pass filter, ground/lift switch, and honestly the comp/EQ and the saturate knobs take it to another level. I think I'm definitely gonna get the Venue at some point, but the Session isn't half bad either

The LR baggs session doesn't have fx loop, How is the chain order of pedals?

Great vid, thank you. Question: I already have the LR baggs venue and was thinking of adding in the Align series session (which has the compression and saturation but not a DI).. would this get the same result? Any reason why I should consider the session DI over it ?

Dave great question. I have not used the align series Session Di. I think the results should be the same though. The align session was not released yet when I made this video. But would love to try it. let me know what you decide.

@@KentToneworksive got all 3 between my personal board and a church board i setup. I have the di on my personal board but run the the align session inline after the tuner and before the venue then the loop for any mod/wet fx. It works just like my session di. I’d argue better when u consider the comp is first in the gain structure with the align as it should be vs last on the di. Id much rather have the loop so my signal wasn’t getting compressed after the wet effects. Unfortunately in the case of the di it has to be last to take advantage of the balanced out.

Hi Curtis! Great sound and setup. Can you PLEASE help me understand why you are taking the signal from the reverb back to the Venue before you route it to the session? Your path is Venue-delay-reverb-venue again- session. Why wouldnt you skip looping the venue and just go Venue-delay-reverb-session? I'm pretty new at this and just trying to figure it out for my own setup. Thanks for the help!

@AnimusLucida

I'm not an expert. I believe this would help to keep the volume, gain and boost settings on the main preamp section from overdriving the pedals in the effects loop. If these pedals were fuzz or distortion you are good to not use an effects loop like you mentioned. But for these reverb and delay you get better clarity of the effect by using the effects loop.

@@john15333 You're welcome! It really is NOT readily available. I figured things out from mainly reading the manuals, watching reviews on youtube, reading reviews and ultimately buying and re-selling things that I didn't end up liking or working the way I hoped they would work. I have several years working in tech support so some troubleshooting experience and a lot of time reading manuals has been helpful to me. Also, there are some fairly informative articles on sweetwater about various topics. Understanding effects is truly rooted in electronics. So, if you are looking to understand more about effects you have to look to the builders and DIY people NOT the players. There are some great indie pedal builders out there. (Kingsley, Coda Effects, Effectrode, Hungry Robot come to mind- but there are many) I have read a lot on amplifier forums, people who build amps themselves, people who build pedals themselves and modify existing pedal circuits. That's where you'll find more concrete information. If you're looking to players they will shrug their shoulders and tell you that they do what sounds good to them. There is some really in depth stuff out there. The basic understanding is that each effect is just a circuit, and that circuits can be modified and re-created by 3rd parties.
