Hello Forum!
I've been a long time lurker and I learned a lot from you all.
Now I have some specific questions to address to you wise people out there.
I've had a MagMic for some months on my gigging acoustic and I couldn't be happier with the sound. I covered the sound hole and I have the mic on 100% all the time. The only issue that I've had so far is a certain degree of high pitched noise interference on the magnetic, with some lights and only in some venues, but doing a lot of live looping that could be a problem. So, being a chronic tinkerer, I opened the thing in search of inspiration, and there it came: what if I put a passive (electric style) tone control on the magnetic side, before the preamp? what do you think the right values for pot and cap could be?
The idea behind it is that I will roll off the noisy high frequencies before the signal blends with the mic, which already brings a lot of sparkling highs. Now I'm doing it after, from my fishman external preamp, leaving me with a quite dull sound when I have this problem.
Any idea is welcome!
