Applications
Using the 2BA-221 as an Acoustic Instrument
Preamp
Acoustic guitars and other instruments are often bi-amplified
because of the superior sound reproduction obtained from
using two transducers. The 2BA-221 is perfect for the job.
Tip: You could also use
the microphone for
vocals and the instru-
ment input for the
guitar using this same
setup.
Connect the pickup output of your acoustic instrument to the
High Z input and connect a high-quality microphone to the
Mic input. Adjust the input gain controls for the best tonal
balance between the microphone and pickup.
