Capturing natural acoustic sound When it comes to recording acoustic stringed instruments, stereo microphone setups are often used to capture the rich, complex sound along with the room ambience. However, using instrument microphones in live situations is not always practical due to feedback and other issues. But here’s where the AC-22LX’s Air Feel technology shines. It erases these limitations, bringing authentic studio microphone sound to your live performances or practice sessions.
Multi-dimensional tone with air feel Thanks to advanced BOSS sound research and processing technologies, Air Feel transforms the sound of your pickup-equipped acoustic instrument. It adds acoustic richness and dimension that was never possible before. Simply plug in your instrument and enjoy its natural acoustic character, amplified to performance volumes without the need for microphones or audio engineering skills.
Powerful sound-shaping tools The AC-22LX features a Guitar/Instrument channel with a three-band EQ, dedicated reverb, and reverb & chorus effects. These tools allow you to shape your sound and add spatial depth to your performance. The XLR Mic channel includes selectable phantom power for condenser mics, a two-band EQ, and dedicated reverb. With 15 onboard memories, you can easily save and recall different setups for your songs and instruments. For even deeper control, the AC-22LX Editor app provides access to detailed effect parameters and allows you to customize your sound.
Built-in rhythms To enhance your practice sessions and live performances, the AC-22LX comes with an onboard Rhythm Box. Choose from 15 different patterns, including percussion and full drum set sounds, all infused with BOSS spatial technology. With the tap tempo button, you can set up the perfect groove and add vibrant rhythmic energy to your playing.
