  • @Spartanm333
    @Spartanm333 Před 2 lety +1

    Thanks for the insight and examples. The colour box can be used without an amp at all if you are travelling with its two on board transformers and built in OD so that would be: guitar - box - laptop - headphones potentially if you wanted to work on something in a bedroom / hotel. Live it could go straight to the PA potentially. And version two has options for acoustic guitar and vocals (XLR output with passive power) so although expensive, it is flexible and much more than a direct in to (Neve) studio console effect.
    That last one is interesting for me as I've used various pedals on my son's rig to boost his acoustic and vocals - even putting an Ibanez TS9 before his Martin to boost the cleans for a busy bar, with just a touch of bite in it. We resort to a Shure Beta 58A and a portable PA to avoid distortion pushing the volume for vocals. It would be interesting to see if the Colourbox could help with this and from the demos I have seen it looks like it will round out the tones for a fuller recording sound also (both the acoustic and mic again).
    He plays electric as well, loves the Beatles so that Revolution sound would seal the deal :)
