4 Pedals That Sound INCREDIBLE On Acoustic Guitar! (Vangoa Pedalboard)

[@kevinprado1380]

Nice! The OC-3 is one of my most useful tools for years. Speaking of the pedalbord, I would add one compressor and one eq. Makes a huge diference even with subtle settings

[@sadiefreeman289]

I'm not a guitarist but I was fascinated watching the processes behind your playing! 😁 and your music did not disappoint, as always ❤️

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Thanks for tuning in Sadie!

[@derekboik4322]

For those looking for an even smaller footprint, the TC Electronics Plethora (3 or 5) is and amazing tool based on the individual needs of the player: Looper, Phaser, Reverb, Delay, Octave, Compressor, etc... and all assignable into the chain. It's a great all in one fly rig.

[@nathanhill9006]

Wish the plethora included the BodyRez - it would be a perfect all in one for acoustic. However, the flashback delay suffers with the mash function. Can you turn it to tap tempo on the plethora?

[@kmohlal4876]

Excellent video and a very informative description of your pedals and how they affect your sound.

[@halfanut]

Great job. Your info videos are always so well done. Thanks Jamie. Take care & stay safe. ;)

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Thanks B! I hope all is well!

[@JoobaSchoolofMusic]

Wow man, i cam for the pedals but stayed for the playing amazing man!!!

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Thanks so much!!

[@topotone]

Thanks Jamie...great stuff. I've been relying on my very old Boss GX 700 multi effects unit for my acoustic, even tho it was designed for electric. The advantage is it's all in one box, but limited in what I can use for acoustic. This helps me figure out options and advancements for my live setup. Been looking at what Mike Dawes has, too. Awesome playing, btw.

[@left0verture]

I’d go for different pedals but the board looks like a must have to start. Thanks for surfacing it in my feed. 👍

[@Slim..]

Jamie, you have a nice setup there. All of your music sounds great, I especially like to hear you play Ghost Riders. Take care Jamie.

[@attybong]

for my gig needs, i only basically need a di/preamp, reverb, e.q., compressor and a tuner for my grab-and-go mini pedalboard ..

[@bobparsonsartist564]

Your tune for the shimmer reverb was nice! I have that Nuenaber pedal and never pushed it....very nice!

[@MichaelR58]

Interesting video Jamie, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !

[@rajaferoze2991]

I’ve used a Sheeran Looper plus along with a Zoom A3. So much versatility. Plus i added a footswitch with the looper plus for more control and customization.

[@brianosullivan5441]

Thanks Jamie !

[@joegartland6907]

Very entertaining! Thank you.

[@MichaelsPaintingChannel]

That's a brilliant choice and presentation. I would love to hear them also on a classical or spanish. Do you have an idea about equivalent plugins for DAWs? I'm searching for halls like those, giving a special tone the the guitar. I don't like so much the standard known ones like the Vallhalla.

[@mathiasjohannesson9833]

Thanks! Really inspiring!

[@jonrittmann]

very good indeed!

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Thanks Jon!

[@nathanhill9006]

Nice video and board. I have the Neunaber Slate with the EXP expansion. I’ve always run the OC-3 in poly just to get bass as I play. Will have a go at running the Seraphim shimmer into the different oc3 modes. I’ve found my Taylor’s ES2 piezo system respond well to the TC BodyRez. Comments about compression are interesting. I think you can allow for a wider dynamic range as a solo artist. In a band I use an optical compressor to sit in the mix. I also decided to run stereo and use a HX1 =>> Halo =>> Cloudburst (replaced my Slate). I have a stereo DI which sums to mono if the stereo option isn’t viable. What are your favourite modulations to use with acoustic?

[@joemonroe1106]

I've seen the Donner circle looper for under $100. I got one during the holidays for $80. Its a great value. I really like the auto save feature.

[@whitedove9806]

Nice reviews , I also enjoyed your lovely music too ❤

[@fixedguitar47]

Should make you a video of my rig. I play outdoors so everything’s got to be battery operated. I’m also playing in stereo on top of a Tonewood amp. So really you have four sounds. Left amp has a slight delay and the right amp also has delay but in a different time signature. It taps back and forth. The Tonewood gives me a hall reverb across the two. Lot of EQ to get the most out of it without getting muddy. This is used at concert level in the middle of the woods. No one can hear it cause no one is within miles. It’s counterintuitive.

[@johnaikema1055]

really liking the OC-3 with the mkII

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Likewise!

[@chucklakeridge7944]

Nice job! No Compressor, huh I'm still working out which comp to use on my rig and where in the chain. Currently running two, a Mini Dynacomp which is excellent at killing feedback (mystery science in that thing) when set real low, and a mini Ego that has good blend and light/dark functions. Might just keep both on!

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Nice good to know!!

[@chucklakeridge7944]

@@JamieDupuisMusician The other thing I'm starting to appreciate about the little Dynacomp - it really warms up the tone - for better or worse depending on whether your setup is already on the warm side. With a piezo (which I usually hate), the squashing helps to even out low mids w/o adding mud. Anyways, my 2 cents..

[@nathanhill9006]

@@chucklakeridge7944I’m a fan of the tc BodyRez and I also run an optical compressor for acoustic. Surprised at how good the Mooer Yellow Comp is.

looper goes last in the chain after effects

If you want your loop to have fx, I’d rather have it more dry and then add fx for solos

[@nathanhill9006]

@@JamieDupuisMusiciansurely you just turn off the fx you don’t want in the loop when your mm record the loop. Eg. The oc3

Could you tell me what pick up system you are using in your guitar? Love your sound and the songs you played in the video

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

It’s a Seymour Duncan acoustic magnetic pickup! Has a built in mic as well! Thanks!

[@billbettencourt7053]

Cool board and great pedal choices, and nice playing. A question - Is there enough empty space under the board to allow you to tuck the short connecting cords underneath out-of-sight, and out of the way? Thanks for sharing this board and your pedals. Great job!

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Yes there’s enough empty space, very well designed!! I bought another pedalboard that wasn’t powered and I find it’s a mess trying to source my own power, this way it’s so much cleaner looking and more efficient, especially if I’m in a rush to a gig!

[@ramos.nitrorc]

That guitar looks just like the martin road series very nice

[@StevenVincentSings]

Oc-5 is the major upgrqde to the oc-3

[@alanbeck5518]

That reverb pedal is almost like a synth! What is that length of leds at the top of your pedalboard and how is it connected?😊

[@LCampbell6718]

Great video

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Thanks Linda!! 🙏🙂

[@Zlofengir]

Your pedal order boggles my mind. Logically, I would have the it: Octave/Delay/Reverb… But that’s just how my brain works.

[@nathanhill9006]

Your brain works just fine.

[@chriswoodall7842]

Great job on the board and playing. I think you would love to put a Strymon Cloudburst on there.

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Funny you mention that I actually use the cloudburst as well, I couldn’t decide between the two! But now I have a bigger board with both Neunaber and Cloudburst, new video on that coming soon!

@ Thanks ! I wasn’t sure !! 👍

[@robertoryamakatayamakata]

Nice

[@jdotte]

Thanks for the video ! I had a similar pedalboard a few years ago and switched to a Helix Floor. Even found a way to make a polyphonic octave effect similar to the OC3. But am thinking of going back to separate pedals. Have you noticed that the OC3 works best with magnetic pickups? I struggled to get the tone and accuracy of the effect with my SBT pickups. It sounded OK withy K&K Trinity. But not even close to your sound.

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

What I’ve noticed when it comes to any acoustic is that you need both magnetic pickups and another pickup, either the pickup has a mic, or you can use the K&K with a magnetic. I used to run the OC3 with the K&K and then have the magnetic through reverb and it sounded great! However if I was to only use the K&K alone it wouldn’t cut it. Acoustics have a wide tonal spectrum and needs to cut through the system, you can also really adjust your EQ settings when you have two pickups, I use one for more bass and the other for more treble, it really works well!

[@jdotte]

@ agreed! My K&K trintiy is a SBT and mic. I recently started splitting and panning the two signals, running the Helix octave effect only through the SBT. And it sounds better, the lower octave traces faster than when blended with the mic. I wonder if the OC 3 is even better with a mag pickup? I tried it once with the LR Baggs M80 and it was fantastic

[@JuanMateo41]

hello sir jamie what pick up do you use for the guitar sir?

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Black Mountain picks & also Wegen gypsy jazz pick

[@AIexOut-A-Magic-x6w]

Did you play using a backing track with violins or was the violin sound an effect of the Neunaber Immerse MKII?

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

No backing track, all from Neunaber

[@TheRealLFC_Dan]

Is that a Furch color series? I thought it was but I wanted to ask. If so, what color and what’re the back/sides? Sounding great BTW!

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

It’s an older Furch from 2016! Still plays/sounds great! Thanks!

[@Want0nS0up]

I was wondering why there is no compressor. For your average or mediocre player such as myself, it would be handy to smooth out my “crash bang“ playing.

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

I have another video coming with my full set up, this was for on the fly I were to chose 4. But the reason I don’t have compression is because I have two mixers, they both have compression. One is a Yamaha and the other is the EAE mixer & the acoustic amp as well!

[@misisipimike8020]

I'm new to your channel. What is your pick up? Also, I have never thought of using an octave pedal. Great tip!

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

Any magnetic pickup would work, but this one is a Seymour Duncan! I use also Skysonic Wireless pickups & DiMarzio Black Angel!

I also use the Immerse for acoustic. But no acoustic pedal board can be complete without the ToneDexter. Hands down best preamp for acoustic guitar.

[@jerrydosser7031]

Octaver made that guitar sound almost like a Martin,,,,,,kinda,,,,,well,,,

[@fernandoscolletion]

but that's not an acoustic guitar! it's practically an electric guitar with a hollow body. The pedals react differently to the use of pickups, as found in electric guitars (and in your guitar) and to piezoelectric elements that are used in acoustic guitars.

[@JamieDupuisMusician]

This one has a mic built in, so it does capture some acoustic tonalities

[@gustavomenezes4917]

Hey Jamie, how are you? Dude, send me one from Alice in Chains. Hugs from Brazil.

[@shazam6274]

Two decades of playing made you a great musician and virtuoso guitar player. Maybe need a few years more for "salesmanship" (or not...since you're too polite, reserved and lack the "bombastic gene" of a Hoser). 1) Try to get a hold of a Maton "Australian" guitar, it will negate the need for an OC-3 (which only boosts the muddy bass of most acoustic guitars). Do you use the OC-3 on the Harp Guitars? 2) Hopefully you got more than a ~$100 product from Vangoa for this 20 min infomercial. They owe you big time!
