Ive been busy researching some options and found it may be better to reach out to experts here. What am I referring to? Details:</p><p>I am mostly deaf so this is an accessibility project but also a music therapy project. I prefer the acoustic guitar to all other instruments played because I can "feel" many of the sound frequencies I can't hear. I've been away from playing guitar for some years but recently decided to get a 3/4 size folk/classical Austin travel guitar. My goal is to play it for both physical rehab and general wellness/pleasure.</p><p>The first thing I did on receiving the guitar was take it over to Guitar Center. I had them change out the steel strings with flexible low gauge nylon strings and file the rough fret edges while setting the nut and bridge accordingly. Then I spent a couple of weeks building callouses and starting the physical rehab. It's going great! However, I do have an issue hearing it, so this is what I need some help with.</p><p>I need to be able to hear the guitar sound better but not disturb anyone nearby - and to be able to hear another guitar being played better as well (anticipating a jam session). This reminded me of needing to play an electric guitar "silently" for a variety of reasons.</p><p>My plan to self-accommodate my disability is to find a way to</p><p>1) amplify a non-electric acoustic guitar without losing natural sound quality<br>2) hear the amplified natural sound of my guitar, and at times another guitar, via my headset (and make the mixed sound available to the other guitarist)<br>3) optionally also mix the microphone channels<br>4) optionally have other inputs for the mixer, i.e. drum machine, mp3, wireless mic, bluetooth connection, additional wired inputs for instruments or mics<br>5) output available to virtual amplifier/pedal/speaker/PC</p><p>Functionally, this diagram is what I came up with where: guitars are "electrified" using piezo or mic to convert the sound to electric form; headsets with 3.5mm jacks have Y adapters to split the mic input from the speaker capabilities; 8 channel mixer shown so all sounds can be mixed and pre-amplified; mixed and slightly amplified sound is heard in the headsets via a sound monitor splitter; and the potential to offer the other options exists for the future.</p><p>What I need help with is determining what tech to buy to achieve a natural quality reproduction of the sound a person with normal hearing hears. (Hearing aids are horrible regarding sound quality.) Summary of functions: audio mixer, audio pre-amp with multiple-headset monitor capability, natural sound quality audio interface (FX not needed but nice to have just in case), and modern features for wireless, bluetooth, and mp3 connectivity.</p><p>Does anyone have any suggestions on what tech options I have?</p>
