What kit would i need to achieve this...?

Lewy · November 2018

So, I’ve got a Fishman Rare Earth blend which, if you use a stereo jack, can send it’s mag signal and mic signal separately.

If one wanted to take advantage of that by having the mag taking care of low frequencies and the mic high frequencies (much like the way the Baggs Anthem does), and also be able to adjust the crossover point to taste...how would you do it? A crossover of some sort I’m guessing but I don’t know what form
they take or what type would suit this application.

Any suggestions welcome!

Thanks. I’d seen that thread as I was researching. I’m looking for something slightly different I.e. not a two channel preamp but something that will take the whole frequency spectrum and divide it between the two sources e.g. only hearing bass and low mid from the mag and mid and treble from the mic. I can create it in my DAW using hi and low pass filters but I’m looking for some hardware to do it.

2 ways I can think of:

1. 2-channel portable interface into an iOS device where you've got many app options for recreating your hi/lo pass computer setup - really easy but needs say an Apogee Duo and an iOS device

2. Chat to someone like @Sporky for a bit of insight into what needed in a simple DIY circuit and then approach one of the pedal-builders to put said circuit in a box for you

I think you could do this with a state-variable filter - basically the guts of a Mutron.

However, I think it'd be more flexible to have separate low and high pass filters.

If I were the user I'd prefer that.

Is it the kind fo circuit that Lewy could easy get someone to make ? Are there likely to be any existing circuit designs on t'internet do you think?

Sporky · November 2018

Almost certainly, but I'm a bit hazy after a few days at a manufacturer training session.

Assuming one doesn't have the kit to make PCBs I think it could be done with two of these and some head scratching.
