General

BOSS' AD-10 is an acoustic preamp and DI pedal that ensures you get the best sound out of your acoustic guitar when playing live. It's equipped with a number of on-board controls and built-in effects that allow you to perfect your sound. There's a USB port too so that you can connect the AD-10 to a computer which makes it just as handy for recording purposes.

AD-10: ultimate control

The AD-10 also has a built-in tuner that is fast and accurate and works as a mute function too. There's a 4-band EQ with a variable low-cut filter for optimal tone shaping and the Acoustic Resonance control restores warmth and richness to the sound that is lost with most pickup systems.

Fine tuning

The multi-band compressor ensures a well-balanced sound by keeping all of the frequencies in check so that none are more prominent than others. Feedback is often a problem with acoustic instruments too but the AD-10 also has an Anti-Feedback control to solve any issues you may experience.

Effects

BOSS is well known for its effects pedals so it's no surprise to find a number of effects built in to the AD-10. The Ambience control offers three different types of high-quality reverb that are all specially tuned for acoustic guitars. There are adjustable Delay and Chorus effects too and the AD-10 even features a looper with 80 seconds of recording time so that you can really get creative. If you want the best sound from your acoustic guitar with plenty of options too, the BOSS AD-10 is the perfect choice.

Boss AD-10 Acoustic Preamp acoustic preamp & DI pedal
Wrote the following about Boss AD-10 Acoustic Preamp acoustic preamp & DI pedal
Nylon: In de vele previews zie ik altijd staalsnarige gitaren, Ik gebruik een nylonsnarige slimbody met een L.A. Baggs element.

De plussen: behalve uiterlijk, zeer mooi stevig, kan stootje hebben:
+ D.I. werkt uitstekend! Stille amp, stereo en lijkt harder door te komen dan de line-out
+ Anti-feedback werkt goed en maakt de sound een meer gelijkmatig geluid, echter bleef bij mij ook wel een 'hol' geluid bestaan.
+ Ook de compressor maakt het geluid stabieler en geeft tevens wat meer kracht in de sound.
+ Goede EQ mogelijkheid, spreekt voor zich; maar vastleggen in één van de 10 geheugens geeft vooral voordeel zodat je niet steeds voor iedere livesessie opnieuw aan de knoppen hoeft te draaien.
+ Send-return voor extern effect is vooral leuk als je nog een of meer extra effect pedaaltjes over hebt, deze er tussen lussen zonder dat je D.I. functie verloren gaat. Anders zou je via de line-out naar die pedaaltjes moeten, dat hoeft nu niet.
+ Looper, superleuke optie, voor mij lang genoeg voor net even dat extraatje.
+ audio opnemen via USB op PC werkt uitstekend.

Paar minpuntjes:
- Delay, valt beetje tegen, echt gebruiksaanwijzing lezen omdat sommige instellingen erg diep liggen. Enkele functie moet zelfs bedient worden met knop onder chorus.
- Chrorus, valt heel erg tegen, nauwelijks variabel en soms is het effect ineens zoek. Volume (mix) niet te vinden en dat juist voor acoustisch zou zo'n leuke toevoeging kunnen zijn. Zeer beperkt dus.
- Tuner is minder duidelijk, voor nylonsnaren wel te gebruiken. Mijn tip: Stem de A snaar en de rest op je gitaar (Flageolet) op die snaar en niet op de tuner.
- De ambiance is wat simpel, maar wel redelijke galm kunnen vinden, heb mooiere gehoord.
- Het instellen vergt echt even verdiepen in gebruiksaanwijzing: de algemene settings zijn prima met de hand te regelen (EQ/Anti-feedback/Ambiance/volume e.d.) maar de diepere functies bij Delay en Chrorus en het vastleggen in geheugen zijn wat minder intuïtief.
- Geen mogelijkheid tot tweaken van het apparaat zelf op PC. De Usb aansluiting is echt alleen voor audio op PC.
Jammer voor Boss, maar deze valt dus eigenlijk een beetje tegen. Heb de ZOOM AC-3, klinkt mooier, meer mogelijkheden anleen daar weer geen presets, maar de bedening is vele malen handiger. Deze Boss kon daar niet tegenop ;)
Boss AD-10 Acoustic Preamp acoustic preamp & DI pedal
Wrote the following about Boss AD-10 Acoustic Preamp acoustic preamp & DI pedal
Voor m'n elektrische setup had ik al een goed multi-effect pedaal maar voor m'n semi-akoestische gitaren (Godin A6 Ultra en een Yamaha APX) zijn dat soort pedalen niet geschikt en werkte ik met losse pedaaltjes, zoals een looper, chorus, galm en een tuner. Met de Boss AD-10 zit dat allemaal in één, stevig pedaal.
Alles is goed in te stellen en handig op het podium, al gebruik ik wel een extra pedaal voor de looperfuncties maar nodig is dat niet. De equalizer heeft een goed bereik en samen met de "acoustic resonance" verbeter je inderdaad het versterkte geluid richting het natuurlijke geluid van je gitaar. De compressor doet z'n werk en de delay, chorus en ambience (galm) zijn goed bruikbaar. Voor tussentijdse solootjes is de boost-knop een uitkomst. De anti-feedback-functie heb ik nog niet nodig gehad dus daar kan ik weinig over zeggen. Praktisch geen ruis en geen brom.
Al met al een prima en handzaam pedaaltje met veel mogelijkheden voor de prijs.

Wrote the following about Boss AD-10 Acoustic Preamp acoustic preamp & DI pedal
Al een tijdje was ik op zoek naar een compacte preamp, DI, tuner en effectpedaal in 1 voor m'n akoustische gigs. Dit pedaal voldoet aan al m'n wensen.

+ De tuner is snel, ietsje minder duidelijk dan bijvoorbeeld m'n Polytune, maar absoluut werkbaar.
+ De ambiance functie is subtiel (verwacht zeker geen shimmerlike settings), maar ik ben sowieso van mening dat je dit meer aan de tech moet overlaten.
+ Meer dan voldoende I/O opties (2 ins, optie voor externe footswitch, FX-loop, zelfs inzetbaar als interface)
+ Anti-Feedback functie werk top. Superhandig dat hij zelf de feedbackfrequenties opzoekt
+ Stil, mits je fatsoenlijke instellingen gebruikt. Is mijn ervaring in tegenstelling tot de andere review.
+ Vertrouwde robuuste Boss behuizing.



- Wat betreft de acoustic resonance: dit werkt op zich goed, maar ik merkte dat dit bij m'n LR Baggs Anthem een overbodige functie is (deze klinkt van zichzelf al heel natuurlijk), en op hogere levels geeft dit ook veel bijgeluid/ruis
- De afkortingen op het LCD display zijn niet heel duidelijk. Was iets minder gebruiksvriendelijk dan ik had verwacht.
