have behringer or joyo done a clone of anything yet?

i've seen the behringer ADI21 but it seems more like a modeller than a proper preamp pedal for live use.

are there are any cheap solutions to get some control over your acoustic pickup eq before it hits the mixing desk?

Not sure but in looking for a joyo candidate I discovered they're doing vox style amplugs for a fraction of the cost!

The behringer is a DI with a sweepable mid range. It's really really good. I've used it for a lot of live work and it does wonders for your tone.

for live acoustic gabe?

i think this is what i'm after then. i'm looking at a baggs m1a pickup so this would be very useful.

Yep I plug a Fishman Rare Earth Humbucker into it and it really improves the sound and cuts down on any noise. I read about the Behringer on the Taylor guitar forum which is why I thought to try it out.
