Zoom A3 Acoustic Guitar Multi Effects Pedal

Product Information

If you cannot find body and model types that match the guitar you are using, use ones that are as close as possible. Be aware that combinations of body and model types that do not exist in reality will not produce suitable tones. Getting lost in a mix is no fun. Engaging this feature gives up a clean boost up to 12 dB to help get your sound front and center. Guitar Tuner effects specially crafted for acoustic guitar, including compression, equalization, modulation, delay, andreverb

The A3 provides 5 different kinds of delays, including reverse, multi-tap, and self-oscillatingdelays. I came across this video which explains the features I thought a bit better than the manual and it may help folks that are new to the A3.....The unit is built like a tank and should have no problem handling the rigors of a live show. Ins and outs With the A3’s balanced XLR output, you can avoid using DI boxes completely and directly connect the pedal to any mixing console to maintain a balanced, high quality signal. The GROUND switch can also be used to eliminate hum caused by ground loops. This cookie stores user-like settings for the chat system provider, which are required for our online chat service.

The A3 allows you to plug a microphone in and the balanced XLR output allows you to use the pedal as a DI box. There’s a ground switch to eliminate ground loop hum. Power The 40 effects, which have a focus on chorus, delay, reverb and other spatial effects, can make acoustic tones even more beautiful. Other effects include a compressor that suppresses input peaks and evens the volume level, an air effect that simulates the sense of space from room tone and a detuning effect that creates a sound like a 12-string guitar. You can use any 2 of these effects together as you like."

Features and Specifications

Use the Tap Tempo feature to set the tempo in real-time to the rhythm of a song as you play guitar. You can also use it to for delay times and modulation effect frequencies.

When you select just a "model" in the A2 or A3 all that does is model/emulate the particular guitar body that is selected and I agree that if all you have is a model selected and no effects it will not likely make a 6 string sound as a 12, but the 6 string will have the model of the 12 string guitar body. Adding "detune" as an effect supposedly is Zooms way of recreating a 12 string. Perhaps if you could browse through the memory slots on your A3 and if it does have a 12 string patch, go into edit mode and see if they actually did put a detune effect in the chain as they did with the A2.

Performing acoustic guitarists can be divided into two camps: those who plug in, and those who don’t. For purists, there’s no alternative to playing into an external microphone, which sounds great under ideal circumstances. Unfortunately, most of us gig in less-than-ideal settings, which makes plugging in a necessity.
