Re: [LAU] Very low input from accoustic guitar pickup

Hi Reuben,

> having a battery doesn't mean a thing in regards to preamps, it means
> it has an active rather than a passive pickup

But isn't the difference between an active and a passive pickup, that
the active one uses the electrical energy to run a preamp (or an EQ as well)
--> "Active" as in "active signal modifying" ?

But you're right when you said that the preamp of an active pickup isn't
the same than an
external preamp that amplifies up to a line-level for the mixer.

Best regards,
Sebastian
