Music is becoming more and more accessible. Sometimes just a computer is enough to write it. But traditional tools are not losing their popularity. Transforming under the influence of technology, they find new fans. An example is the electro-acoustic guitar - a symbiosis of acoustic and electric guitar. How to connect it?
Necessary
- Electro-acoustic guitar
- Cords
- Combo amplifier
- Mixer
- Audio speakers
- Computer
Instructions
Step 1
Take your electric acoustic guitar and find the plug for the cord. It is usually located at the bottom of the guitar body. Plug the guitar cord into the jack. If your guitar has a built-in equalizer, you will need the appropriate batteries to operate it. Before starting to connect your guitar, check that they are there.
Step 2
Then take the other end of the guitar cord and plug it into the corresponding jack on the amp. It is recommended to insert the cord into the switched off combo amplifier and only then turn it on. This will avoid possible damage to the device. Adjust the volume on your guitar and combo as needed. Adjust the equalizer to achieve the balance of low, mid and high frequencies you need. You can now start playing.
Step 3
Other devices can be used instead of a combo amplifier. You can connect an electric acoustic guitar using a mixing console and audio speakers. Connect the guitar to the mixing console with a cord. The connection process is similar to the connection process described in the previous paragraph. Then use another cord to connect the mixing console to the speakers. Now turn on all devices, adjust the sound and you can start playing.
Step 4
Also, the electric acoustic guitar can be connected directly to the computer. To do this, insert one end of the guitar cord into the jack on the guitar and the other end into the input jack on your computer sound card. Turn on the sound and you can start playing.
