HX Stomp for Mandolin and Banjo | EQ, IRs, Compression, and More

I bought an HX Stomp to replace my acoustic pedalboard, so it was only a matter of time before I plugged my mandolin and banjo into it, too.

The compressor and EQ blocks in the HX Stomp are incredibly helpful for making the pickups in my mandolin and my banjo sound brighter, warmer, and more pleasant to listen to. This video shows some of the moves that I made dialing those in, and how it compares to the raw sound from each instrument.

If you're an HX user, feel free to download the presets I made in this video below.

Unless I state otherwise in the video, everything I test out on here is stuff that I bought myself. There are no paid reviews on this channel and only a couple times have I ever had items sent to me for review. All opinions are my own!
