A Crowdster Plus 2, a Helix, a POG 2 and a Mel9 having WAY too much stinkin' fun...

That was by FAR your best Crowdster demo yet! If I wasn't all the way on the other side of the planet, I pop in just to hear your tone live. :D

The ambience blended extremely well with the acoustic. I was actually a bit scared that when you cut in the acoustic tone it was going to be a thin plinky sound, but it was the exact opposite, your piezo sound was rich and full. In fact it sounded better than most direct mic record acoustics. Please do tell what you did to get it to sound like that.

It's in the article here.

Basically, the Helix with an Acoustic Guitar IR loaded (from 3 Sigma Audio) that makes all the difference.

Which acoustic IR did you use in the above video? BTW, those 3-Sigma acoustic IRs are great. I've got all three packs and can't decide which I like best.

Also, how did you have the tone controls on the Crowdster set? It sounds very full (in a good way).

Pretty sure it's one of the Martins.
