Hello friends,
Just a post to show you a simple option wich changes the usefullness of Sylent-oud.
Note : You can not imagine how many hours I passed just to add this passive preamp

Hello!
nice!
can you explain us a bit more what is the advantage of the preamp? what preamp is it?
What effect did you put on the oud?
Thanks!

Hello stos,
Advantages are :
- accessibility of pots to adjust volume and tone
- quality of sound (no hum)
- no battery required, that is passive
- discretion and finition
That is an hartwood preamp. I tried it for test because that is small and as you can hear in video, it works very well. You can add every effect you
want, that is electric as electric guitar. So if you have a pedaboard, enjoy reverb chorus delay distorsion ... And why not looper !

Hey Sylvain,
Thanks for the info. about effects i wanted to know what you exactly used on the video ;-) at the beginning is it phaser? flanger?
I agree BTW that the preamp improved the sound!
Thanks!

Hi stos
I used wha pedal with distorsion and delay. No flanger or phaser or other. Check the small pedalboard zoom g1xon. That is cheap ...
And you ? Do you have a demo about what you mix ?

hey!
i do not have any sounds recorded at the moment but i use phaser, octaver, delay and reverb. i was curious because the sound in the opening sounded
huge!
