I did the keyboard thing before but it seems like everything external midi lags a little to where you cannot play very fast and wrong/late notes pop up. I dunno.. Maybe i've got it set up wrong or maybe I should get a second guitar with the pitch to midi build in for midi guitar stuff.. Where did you get your pitch to midi guitar, I have a fender strat can I just replace one of the pickups??
My guitar is a Brian Moore with the midiaxe system, but I don't think you can get them anymore. Best bet, IMO, is a piezo 13 pin system (Brian Moore, Godin, RMC pickup systems), run into an AXON midi converter. See if you can find a store with a piezo 13 pin Godin guitar, and if they will let you bring in your VG-99 to try it. If the piezo system in the Godin still lags, it's probably the VG-99s fault.
Nice, I've got a VG-99 with Guitar-2-Midi and PRS and GK-3 input. I hooked it up to my pc.. But it doesn't seem to pick up every note and chords don't sound right.. How are you getting it perfect realtime? What are you using?
Hey, most of the lag in your system is probably happening in your computer. Try sending the VG-99 midi output straight to a keyboard with midi in. That will give you a good idea of how fast your system actually is. GK-3 pickups are magnetic, so the signal they receive is a little weaker than the RMC piezo bridge in my guitar. That's probably the source of your lost notes. Try playing very precisely with your fretting hand, too.
@ninjaduke7 Avoid the lowest octave on your guitar when you use the midi of VG-99 because it is too laggy. It is alway better to play on higher positions and eventually transpose the midi down, in the synth.
Not in this video, although I can implement both hold and sostenuto. You can see my first finger and thumb holding the pedal tones toward the beginning.
tell me this can be synced up with say reason or pro tools? it would almost have to ..i would buy one in a sec if i could use my fuckin guitar as a midi controller for reason
I've run plugins in AcidPro with it, as well as standalone VSTs like Delay Lama by using a Midisport Uno as the input. If you know how to adjust for midi offset like with a keyboard controller, you can use this the same way. For a guitarist recording a midi track it's perfect, but I have yet to use a computer with low enough latency for live soft-synth performance.
ya i feel ya but i promise you (as someone with a CS degree) there def computers fast enough and using the right buffer allocation that could pull off live perfomance..i would get one of these but i figure it's just as easy and prob more effective to trigger the synths with a midi keyboard (assuming you can play keys that is)
Hey awesome song! Keep up the composing. Sorry for being ignorant, but is midi the new soundboard kind of thing that is like an awesome sweet foot oedal that can change your tunes to pretty much anythin?
Midi is a digital steaming format used so electronic instuments can communicate... usually for synths and such. some guitars can have a hexaphonic pickup added, then the signal passed through a pitch to midi convertor so you guitar can control a synth... ttyl
Hey, thats really cool man. Ive been trying to figure out how to conncet my guitar in through midi to get all those sounds. What set up do you need to do it?
2 ways basically: You can use one of the Roland GK pickups and run the 13 pin out into one of their systems or into an Axon guitar to midi processor, or you can try to find a guitar with an onboard pitch-to-midi converter like mine. I plug my 5 pin midi output straight into a synth module.
this sounds like something that muse would use....oh my have a created a rhyme?

Do you understand Roman numerals and chord inversions? I can give you the chord names, but it probably won't sound the same without the inversions.

what manufacture is your guitar? Doesn't Godin makes those with synth out?
Jhaakri 4 years ago
It's a Brian Moore. I don't think anyone makes a guitar with 5 pin midi out anymore, but Godin and Brian Moore have 13 pin "synth ready" guitars.
