Violins
Equipment Used
3 Acoustic Violins
- Each violin is equipped with a Baggs bridge and Mills microphone. This setup produces a strong, clean, warm, reliable acoustic sound.
- One stays in standard violin tuning. The other two are for open tunings.
3 Five-string Electric Violins
- One stays in standard tuning. A second is for alternate tunings. Both these violins produce the full range of both a violin and a viola.
- The third is strung with
octave
strings for cello range.
- A range of sound can be produced on these instruments from very natural to highly effected.
Amplification for Live Performance
- Both the electric and acoustic violins run through Pendulum preamps for a strong, clean sound suitable for both large and small venues.
Processing Gear
- Judy uses Lexicon processing for her basic sound. She also has a fun selection of pedals including phasers, octave, delay, and distortion.
