Description
There's no argument that a microphone is the best way to capture the sound of an acoustic guitar, but until now, using a microphone for most live performances has been an elusive dream. Lyric, the next step in Tru•Mic technology, is the long overdue realization of this dream. Without a pickup, Lyric's microphone accurately transports your guitar's actual voice to a live audience for the most realistic and inspiring sound you will ever experience.
TRU•MIC TECHNOLOGY
Our featherweight microphone,
each high-graded for ideal response, mounts to the underside of the
bridge plate with simple peel-&-stick adhesive to preserve the
integrity of your instrument. The microphone leverages the
"pressure-zone" principle by positioning the capsule just 3mm from the
surface of the top to hear the entire soundboard for even balance and
tone. And the microphone's proximity to the top allows high gain before
feedback. Unlike other attempts to use an internal microphone, Lyric
employs noise canceling technology that rejects "boxy" reflections
inside of the acoustic chamber. This patent pending minor miracle
enables the mic to act as if it were outside of the guitar delivering a
clear and open performance.
In a studio, you would have to use an entire rack of gear to achieve what we have built into Lyric's tiny circuit board. Our lead engineer, Tommy Linn, created several patent pending "black box" circuit innovations that unlock the potential of the microphone. The first tightens the lower frequencies for a punchier attack with natural dynamics. The second maintains the microphone's sweetness no matter how hard you play. The third innovation, not patent pending but useful, is an adjustable "presence" control that dials high frequency response perfectly for your guitar. Wrap all of this in all discrete, high-fidelity mic pre and you have a world class microphone system as an integral part of your guitar anywhere you plug in.

GUITARIST MAGAZINE
– Dave Burrluck
“The
Lyric is a marvellous aide, especially for players who want studio,
mic-like tonality coming out of their acoustic amp or PA. Also, if
you're recording at home then it's not always easy to have a perfectly
quiet environment. Again, the Lyric is remarkably accurate in here,
giving you mic-like tonality direct into your recording software.”

ACOUSTIC GUITAR MAGAZINE
– Teja Gerken & Scott Nygaard
“One
of my main considerations with any amplification system is how good it
sounds given little or no time for a soundcheck. I’ve played countless
festivals where I had to walk onstage, plug in, and hope for the best.
It’s hard to imagine anything working any better in that situation than
the LR Baggs Lyric.”
