FMR Audio A.R.C. Instrument Processor Pedal

The A.R.C.—an acronym for "Articulation, Resonance & Clarity"—provides a unique, niche function by allowing the musician to change the balance of these three characteristics of their instrument(s). The A.R.C. has found a cult following among acoustic instrument players wanting to experience the "acoustic sound" while playing live with a wide variety of instruments: mandolins, ukeleles, acoustic guitars, fiddles/violins, acoustic basses, lap steel, dobros and the like. One player described the A.R.C. as being able to control, to taste, the resonance of his custom Collings dreadnaught during live gigs, while others have reported finally being able to hear their instrument's true nature through the stage monitors!
