This is the best vid I have found on the use of the really subtle pedal. I do like mine although I may have been expecting too much in terms of shaping vs. enhancement as you point out. Thanks for posting. The best way to get to know the pedal is to leave it on for a while, then turn it off the effect is more evident. Just switching on/off and turning knobs does not make the subtle differences obvious.

Awsome review, I have a small acoustic pedalboard and I’m having trouble in what order I should organize my chain. I have it this way: guitar>Tuner>IR Pedal>LR Baggs Reverb>LR Baggs Session DI (This is different as the one you are reviewing but is basically the same core)

@guitariq

No worries, if you're running into an amp, I'd place the reverb after the Session DI. However, if you're running straight to a mixing desk you'll probably want to keep the DI last in chain. Hope that helps!

Sounds great, gonna purchase the Session pedal! What acoustic are you playing here and strings?

It gives a fat round presence that you may not take much note of until it's taken away. 😎

Great video! I have a nylon string with a built-in piezo pickup that loses its natural tone a bit when plugged in. I would like to boost the volume in a live setting and maybe enhance the tone a little bit, would you recommend this pedal for that or would it be too subtle?

Hi. Wonderful video. Just a quick question. I have a set of new LR baggs pedals and Im wondering in what order I should set them up. Lr baggs venue di Lr baggs sesssion Lr baggs reverb

@guitariq

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Awesome, those pedals should sound great together ; ) If you're running into an acoustic amp... I'd probably go: the Venue, into the Session, into the Reverb. (Though, you might want to try swapping the Session and Venue around to see which you prefer). However, if you're mainly using the DI 'Output' of the Venue... I'd simply run both the Session and Reverb pedals in the 'Effects Loop' of the Venue. This will give you a more versatile setup and would probably be the option I'd recommend. Hope that helps!

Thank you for the informative post. I am in the process of putting a small acoustic pedal board together. I currently have the LR Baggs Venue and TC Helicon Harmony Singer 2. I am considering purchasing the LR Baggs Align series Reverb and Session. Could you recommend the chain order of the 4 pedals on the board? Thanks in advance.

@guitariq

3 жыл бұрын

No worries! It's hard to say, without knowing exactly how you'll be using your setup. I'm not that familiar with the Singer pedal. However, usually I'd place any pitch effects first in chain. So I'd probably suggest: Singer 2 > Session > Reverb > Venue I'd also probably place the Session and the Reverb in the FX loop of the Venue. That way you have a clean signal hitting the tuner/front end of the Venue. Anyway, hope that helps!

I have a Sennheiser XSW pedal (doubles as a tuner), NUX Optima Air, LR Baggs Session, Strymon Blue Sky, Boss RC-1, and Orange Acoustic Amp. Which order would you recommend for the best signal chain? Occasionally it will go into an amp, but 8 times out of 10 it will run into a stage box which will go into the PA system. Thank you!

@guitariq

No worries. I suggest trying... Wireless System > Optima Air > (Session > Looper - both in the Optima Air FX loop) > Blue Sky. However, if you want to run the Optima Air as your main DI, you could also try the Blue Sky in the effects loop too. Additionally, you might prefer having your looper after the Blue Sky if you like being able to change the reverb sound on some layers. Hope that helps!

I would in general terms always aim for preamp>eq>compressor>reverb&delay. But you could switch reverb&delay to go before compression. And try to high pass filter at around 80-100hz before compressor aswell. And if you use dramatic tone shaper put it right after preamp.

Thanks for the video, Could you recommend slightly more accessible brands?

Hello, question re your optimal air nux, I have a travel guitar that has a horrible piezo pickup. Before changing it out I was wondering if the it on it can make it sound a little better. How can I get your it....and what pick do you have on your guitar

@guitariq

2 жыл бұрын

Hey, I have an AP5 pickup from Maton. Yeah, IR's might improve the sound of your guitar... However, they'll probably work a lot better with a pickup that already sounds relatively balanced. Preamp pedals work to enhance what's there. So it really depends how bad the pickup quality is to start with...

So on mine I can’t use the gain at all. Like I can’t even turn it past the first hash before it starts lighting up the clip indicator. I’ve even tried turning the pick up all the way down, and that allows me to SLIGHTLY bump the gain to like maybe the 3rd or 4th hash, then starting clipping again. I do play pretty hard but I don’t have any issues out of any of my other pedals. Playing a PRS Angelus SE A60E. HELPPPPPPP!

Thank you so much for the very informative video on session! Just bought the session and wondering what is the best way of chaining this in my rig. So do you reckon: Acoustic guitar -> Polytune 3 -> Venue (efx loop) -> session -> Chorus -> Blue sky -> Venue (efx loop) -> DI out Or Acoustic guitar -> Polytune 3 -> Session -> Venue (efx loop) -> Chorus -> Blue sky -> Venue (efx loop) -> DI out Thanks in advance!

@guitariq

Ай бұрын

I'd experiment with both options. The benefit of having the session first is that any additional EQ moves won't affect the comp or saturation. However, you may prefer the Session after the EQ as a type of "finishing" effect. So both would work. It's just really about what you like the sound of ; )

Luke, I noticed that you have some plastic pedal switch covers on your pedals that increases the surface area for easier activation. Can you explain what they are and where to get them, please? They are just what I need. Thanks, Warren

Hi would this improve the tone when playing into a Bose s1 pro amp. I’m playing with a K&k pure mini and the sound is ok but I’m looking for that warm fuzzy electro acoustic tone that is forgiving when strumming without that clear pick out every brittle tone. ( if that makes sense). I am certainly hearing that tone I’m after but are you using some other magic. Cheers

I haven't tried it. But I think this pedal would work well on most acoustic sources... So, it would probably sound nice on violin. That said, it depends on the pickup though. If it's a little spot mic, running into compression might cause unwanted feedback. So it's really something you'd have to test out. Hope that helps.

I have this pedal, it 1) inverts the phase (NO WAY!) for no reason. 2) compression is not compression, it simply cut low-mids always 3) saturate is less than decent. I took it off the pedalboard. The "very subtle, very subtle" thing on all reviews mean something.
