Yes, they seemingly solved one issue of several issues. What happens when playing the following chord A7#9 e a d g b e 6 | | | o | | 7 | | o | | | 8 | | | | o o and while holding the chord bending the b and e string at the 8th fret? Keep in mind that using a divided pickup it's possible to e.g. use modeling for the e, a and d string, e.g. a neck pickup of a Stratocaster, with a Drop D tuning (while the guitar is a LesPaul not tuned to a Drop D tuning), while the g, b and e string send MIDI messages to 3 different MIDI channels. >There is talk of this software obsoleting using special pickups. >I would tend to agree, it's pretty darn good. Perhaps if the purpose is sending MIDI events only, but a guitar synth provides more. You individually could change the volume and tuning of each strings output, you could change the velocity curve. Some sounds such as a lead synth allow pitch bend, while bending a guitar string, other sounds, such as a grand piano don't allow this. In addition you could mix it with all kinds of modeling. >> My new guitar additionally has got a Sustaniac driver. > >Ah, just looked that up. >Similar to the famous e-bow hand-held sustainer? Yes, but it could add endless sustain to a note and by a three position switch fade to 2 different kinds of harmonics to simulate feedback. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
