This video takes you through the features of the new BOSS AD-10 Acoustic Preamp, with instruction on how to use it and how it sounds. www.megamusiconline.com.au/bo...
@@MegaMusicOnline hi! Is it possible to erase last loop if you are not satisfied? Or you need to delete whole loop? Also, is it possible to use delay footswich to turn on/off chorus?
Thanks Sam. I'm tending to favour more in-depth 'how-to' vids these days that give people a good idea of what these products do and how to use them. I think that's a helpful way to go. If you're an Aussie, contact Mega Music and we'll help you out.
Now that I've taken the time to learn all the inner operations (lockdown!), this unit has performed EXCEPTIONALLY for me. I run my two new Furch guitars...equipped with K & K Pure mini and Journey EP001K transducers to great effect.
What I have found is the factory presets are all I really need. I may click different affects on, I always utilize the awesome and I mean awesome Compressor (on factory presets that for some reason don't utilize it), but overall, I just don't see any need at all to try to get crazy with my own patches created literally from scratch. I have a Godin XTSA, running the 13 Pin into a GR-55, then I run my quarter inch out of the Electric/Acoustic Jack into the AD-10. I run my GR-55 out through a Radial JDI then XLR up to the booth. I XLR out of the AD-10 (which is in & of itself a DI) up to the Booth. Our system is mono at the church. I have the 2 separate channels (one for the GR-55, one for the AD-10) merged into one in ear monitor channel one the stage. They trust my ability to mix myself, so they leave everything alone on my 2 channels on the board and allow me to sculpt my own sound. What's really interesting is I find the AD-10 with the XTSA can achieve a very warm clean electric Jazz sound. I'm only 2 weeks in to the AD-10, but this thing, used in conjunction with the GR-55, allows me to really fill up the air. Now it's up to me to make sure I fill it with good air.
Thanks - glad you're putting it to good use. Yeah, the compressor is really good, I wouldn't go back into live performance again without something like that.
I do all my own patches on my GR-55 from scratch (I get some ideas from the factory presets, but I just don't like them as much as my own), but Acoustic, by it's nature, isn't in need of tons of different sounds. I'm perfectly happy with the 10 presets. By the way, out of all the reviews, I chose yours to learn this great little product. Your video took the exact amount of time it needed. 14 minutes is all you need for this product.
Hi friends, I have a question; I bought the ad-10 and when I turn off the unit, the screen remains turn on and continuing showing the letters ad/By alternatively and continue flashing, is normal?. Maybe this is not the correct place for this question, but I search information and I don't find it.
Nice one mate, thanks for this video, very helpful! I like this pedal a lot... have to get me one soon! :) Does the looper not have an undo/redo option!? Having an undo/redo is a pretty important feature for a loop pedal... especially if you plan to do any looping on stage in front of an audience! Otherwise it's a great extra added feature for practice purposes I suppose!...Thanks again!
Nice review! How to control the chorus effect since there is no footswitch? Only by the tiny button over there? It is possible to have delay and chorus at the same time? Thanks!
Thanks - yes you can run chorus and delay but unlike delay, chorus is not switchable, you'd include it as one of your preset sounds and if you wanted a different non-chorus preset, you'd make that a new preset.
Nice review, but if that is a Maton guitar i think i never heard a thinner sound through the AP5 or AP5 Pro!?😇 I like the pedal, the size, the features but if it makes my guitar sound that thin i'm not that sure I will buy it… Looking at your EQ you should have way more lows or is it the resonance control? But like I said, a nice review and the sound is just my own preference...
Not as far as we know Jimbo, maybe have a read of the full specs here www.boss.info/au/products/ad-10/features/ that might have some more information. Regards, Mega Music
if you have a good ac guitar you can have really good or better sound than this. if you know hot to use chorus-delay-reverb. evn guitar rig 5 gives the same sound. sales strategy nothing more. because there are tons of things going on behind wwhat we see.(mixing editting etc)
If u are in the music (ie sound) business - U NEED DECENT AUDIO. Get a professional to show u how. The opening is amateur hour. Apart from that - informative
Thank you for a clear and understandable demonstration of the unit for those of us who are somewhat new to acoustic guitar effects.
Very useful introduction to this pedal which I just bought from my local music store in Newcastle upon Tyne UK. Thanks a lot.
Great review. I was going to get all these boss pedals separately but will get this on the strength of your review.
Thank you for demonstrating how to use this a looper; it's the only video I could find with this! Cheers!
Thank you! Best introduction for this pedal I´ve seen.
THANK YOU for posting this. Awesome stuff. Stay safe & healthy.
The best review of the AD 10 i think
Thanks Richard, glad you found it helpful.

Solid review, might have to look into getting one of these

I just watched your tutorial from Lolo, Montana. Thanks!
Great start…just bought one and struggling to get sound I want. Starting with Freq button very enlightening…thanks good clear starter

Probably nice...but why would you get that instead of the Boss VE8 ...which has great guitar tone AND vocal sounds and loops ...
How to use foot switch for help control loop sir ?
Nice review! How to control the chorus effect since there is no footswitch? Only by the tiny button over there? It is possible to have delay and chorus at the same time? Thanks!
Thanks - yes you can run chorus and delay but unlike delay, chorus is not switchable, you'd include it as one of your preset sounds and if you wanted a different non-chorus preset, you'd make that a new preset.
...so can be the last loop deleted or have to start over again?
Nice review, but if that is a Maton guitar i think i never heard a thinner sound through the AP5 or AP5 Pro!?😇 I like the pedal, the size, the features but if it makes my guitar sound that thin i'm not that sure I will buy it… Looking at your EQ you should have way more lows or is it the resonance control?

Why does an acoustic no longer sound like one once you plug it in ?
Can you edit the order of your presets?
Great review. Is it possible to adjust the boost level?
Hi Andrew, you can adjust the boost tone but not the level. Hope that helps.
@@MegaMusicOnline Thanks. Yes, that helps.
Do you know if you can preset the eq for each input? In other words, run two guitars through each with their own eq settings? Thanks
Not as far as we know Jimbo, maybe have a read of the full specs here www.boss.info/au/products/ad-10/features/ that might have some more information. Regards, Mega Music
Yes, you can!
Does it handle condenser microphone?
Can you run the delay and chorus at the same time?
Yes indeed. Or only one of them.
How do we connect a volume pedal to control loop volume
Hi Carl, as far as we know there's no specific way to control the loop volume with a pedal.
is it work with nylon strings?
Yes, it certainly will.
@@MegaMusicOnline thanks
You have to use two feet to get the presets to activate. Seriously. Ugh... it all seemed so amazing.
I think 2 feet is required to change modes not presets.
One foot can cover both pedals pretty easy unless you have really small feet, then you will need to purchase 1 right clown shoe.
if you have a good ac guitar you can have really good or better sound than this. if you know hot to use chorus-delay-reverb. evn guitar rig 5 gives the same sound. sales strategy nothing more. because there are tons of things going on behind wwhat we see.(mixing editting etc)
Tune up lol
The quick edits, odd angles, focus, B&W then color, pans, etc. . . . Not helpful in a gear review video.
The first 30 secs, yes, just a teaser. The rest is much slower and looks in detail at how to use it.
kevin breslin Zhou you sounds rather odd man!
That sounds so thin
im not convinced to take this. Too many buttons and knobs. BOSS is always making it too complicated. Lets look a review on trex soulmate.

Geeze strum that dam guitar so we can hear what it does??? Why talk talk talk???
