Acoustic guitar : Punchy
With big compression, and a fast release time (FAT Meek setting), the sound
of an acoustic becomes a lot more punchy. If you add to this eq contouring
with big bass and hf boost with a mid cut a fantastic solo acoustic guitar
sound is achieved. Please remember that with this setting, feedback through
a PA or foldback may be a problem. If so, simply reduce the compression
and bass eq until the problem goes.
Use with mic : guitar cabinet
You can use the Fathead to great effect when using a mic on a guitar cabinet.
The Distortion and drive that you get naturally can be picked up and
enhanced by the distortion feature, and a little compression adds to warmth.
This is worth considering as an alternative when you have a naturally good
sound to work with, and want to get an enhanced version in a recording or
PA system.
Out and out : Electric guitar & Bass
When you are using an electric guitar with a big system, there is not a lot
more fun that winding everything up full, and hearing your instrument like
nothing ever before. As with other high distortion settings, bass boost and hf
cut adds weight to the sound. This setting will generate a lot of noise, but
will sound fantastic!
