Overview
Aura Imaging Pedals utilize Fishman's Aura Acoustic Imaging Technology in a familiar effects pedal format, finally allowing acoustic guitarists to easily and accurately reproduce the sound of their instrument as miked in a professional studio.
Easy to set up and use, Aura Acoustic Imaging Pedals eliminate intrusive stage noise and expensive microphone setups, allowing guitarists to achieve incredible recordings at home or in any live performance setting. Designed for use with guitars featuring undersaddle or magnetic soundhole pickups, there are Aura Pedals for each of the six major types of acoustic stringed instruments: Dreadnought, Concert, Orchestra, Jumbo, Nylon, and 12-String.
Each Aura Imaging Pedal features 16 Images, selected from a vast library to cover a wide range of the most popular acoustic guitar models. A deliberately simple and intuitive control set offers Volume, Blend, and Phase allowing simple operation at home or on stage.
Aura uses digital algorithms, developed in Fishman's audio labs, to create an Image of the natural sound that microphones capture in a professional studio. This Image, when played through an amp, mixer, or PA, blends with your instrument's pickup to produce an immediate and dramatic improvement in your amplified sound.
Specifically, the Dreadnought model is for standard flat top and full size acoustic models; the Concert is for smaller body guitars like a 00, Concert and Grand Concert; the Orchestra for midsize guitars like OM and Auditorium… read more models; the Jumbo for large body flat top guitars; Nylon for nylon string classical guitars and 12-String for 12-guitars.
For the highest audio quality, each Aura Acoustic Imaging Pedal features 24-bit A/D D/A and 32-bit internal processing, and runs on a 9V battery or AC power adapter. read less

Sound
The sound of the Fishman Aura Jumbo Acoustic pedal is amazing, as advertised! I have a Gretsch Sierra jumbo guitar, and could barely wait to get the pedal in the mail. I don't have an acoustic guitar amp, so I tried the pedal and guitar thru a Behringer bass amp and a Boss BR1600 digital recorder. I recorded 2 songs on with the Aura for MORAIMA and Bass Culture. I can hear the sound of nice mics with some sort of jumbo guitars, I suppose, and it sounds like different rooms, unless I am mistaken.
Am I hearing different Gibson or Martin guitars? I am uncertain, I read something about imaging of different guitar woods and expensive mics. All I can do is try the 16 different sounds for whatever song I am recording. I can still hear the sound of my Gretsch, tho, which is great.
Features
The phase switch is very handy to cut feedback.
Ease of Use
No manual at all, but I can't get a bad sound out of this product!
Quality
The Aura is built like a brushed-metal tank! Very durable and tough! It will still be working when I am dead and gone, and the next musician should take it on the road.
Value
Worth it!
Manufacturer Support
