Overview
Stageman floor is from our popular Acoustic Amplifier~ Stageman. It’s a pure
analog preamp with digital effects and looper function. People love the sound
and functions, therefore we developed it into a compact size.
The Stageman floor uses a regular 9V adaptor like most pedals. We doubled 9V
to 18V inside to create a huge dynamic range and ginormous headroom. Besides
the warm preamp sound, we customized the Reverb and Chorus algorithm to be
simple and useful with one knob control.
Adjustable input impedance could fit various pickups including piezo and
magnetic ones. The Insert send/return jack could connect with our Atlantic
Delay & Reverb input by TRS stereo cable, or Y-cable with other pedals you
need for post effects. It offers AUX IN for playback, Earphone Out for silent
practice (if you use Silent Guitar), and DI OUT for line out to PA system or
mixer. The micro USB port is for firmware update.
No matter you are a busker, finger-style guitarist, session player, or working
musician. Stageman floor encompasses all-natural acoustic tones you need on
stage or in the studio.
