12 string effects pedal for 6 string acoustic electrics?

[wordwiz]

Hello.

 

Does anybody know if there is an effects pedal that will simulate an acoustic 12 string? I play a Martin 6 string acoustic electric through a Fender Acoustisonic Jr amp, and on occasion would like the 12 string sound.

 

Many thanks.

Try using a chorus pedal.

Electro Harmonix POG or HOG will both do it convicingly. Or a Boss Super shifter.

Nothing really does extremely convincingly, but you can kinda get close by using a chorus with an octave doubler on your guitar's signal.

 

Get a real 12-string.

With octave doubler, don't the chords get wonky?

Not as bad as an octave divider, but, yeah, tracking fast passages and chords can be a problem...slower to medium speed leads are usually better sounding.

 

That why I suggested get a real 12-string...nothing really gets that 12-string sound like the real thing!

The zoom A2 has a twelve string simulator.

 

How good is it?

 

I bought a 12 string guitar.

 

The only thing close a real 12 string guitar would be something like a variax 700 acoustic or the boss VG8 / 88 / etc.

all the 12 strings sims eor've heard in multi-effect dealies sound like raw ass. in general, eor is against hamonizers and pitch shifters and stuff, for that reason. fewer lasers, more rock.
