what our customers say
The CloseUp® System is available now for violin, viola, cello, mandolin, acoustic guitar and classical guitar.
The CloseUp® System is the ultimate amplification and recording solution for your acoustic stringed instrument.
Studio Quality Sound, Anywhere
The CloseUp® System sounds like a studio mic placed by an experienced audio engineer, but it’s self contained, quick to set up and you can use it anywhere – on stage, at home, or outside.
Breakthrough Isolation
The only solution that both sounds completely natural and true and isolates against background noise, other instruments and feedback.
Flexibility
The CloseUp® System is designed to work in any situation. The analog audio output is a balanced line out that will connect to almost anything. Power can be supplied from the included USB power supply, a 9V battery, a phone charger, a computer’s USB port, or a standard 9V guitar pedal power supply. Store ‘profiles’ for up to 4 instruments on the device and switch between them, and store many more on your computer.
Easy Recording
You simply won’t hear that car drive by in your recording. You won’t have to worry about where you record, and room acoustics are no longer a problem. Plus, the CloseUp® System doubles as a USB audio interface so you can record using your favorite software.
Confidence
The CloseUp® System is your sound: reliably the same anywhere you play. Don’t worry about feedback on stage or finding the right sound anew at each venue.
Simplicity
Just plug and play — the mic can stay on your instrument in its case. When you’re ready to play, just plug the cable into the CloseUp® processor box and connect that straight to the PA, speaker, or house mixer. No preamp, direct box, EQ, or anything else required.
Real Beauty
No compromising with the dead, mechanical sound of a pickup. Enjoy the true, natural acoustic tone of your instrument when you use amplification.
Yours Truly
The CloseUp® System uses proprietary algorithms developed over years of acoustic research with hundreds of instruments played by dozens of performers to customize itself to the unique sound of your instrument. Our simple, step-by-step process allows you to tailor your CloseUp® System to your instrument so it sounds real, natural, and acoustic every time. And for additional customization, you can use the Custom EQ and Tone controls to tweak your sound for artistic effect.
