Recording of the acoustic instruments, or lira LARP with them, is called a challenge, even if you are an okay sound engineer. Close Up looks like a DI box, but a couple of snap more useful than that. The system consists of three components: a small box of electronics and two different microphones. A pickup is the acoustic guitar and the other is for string instruments.

The box contains the processors, who in turn work with algorithms that are listening in your instrument’s special character and then adjusts the sound recording for it. Software for Mac and Windows included, and the entire adaptation process takes about five minutes to complete. The technology used in Close Up is patent pending.

Close-up box can save four different instrument settings, while you can store in your computer, of course. The unit contains a rechargeable battery that lasts four hours or so driven with power via a USB connection.
