The Moog Guitar Model E1-M with MIDI

[kssork]

take that pianists 

[numanuma20]

I think this is for the guitarist who wishes he had a synth but can't play the keyboard.

[Doggabone]

@Soulfree2008 There's more than one signal path. The Moog guitar has normal electric guitar signal, onboard electronic processing, and MIDI out. The MIDI adds to a guitar that is already unique among guitars. The stack of signals makes some multi-layered sounds possible that would be difficult or impossible using only soft synths. The electronics mean that you can also get sounds you don't get layering the guitar signal with a Roland guitar synth. And most guitarists are not keyboardists, also.

i hope matt bellamy gets a hold of one of these.

[resagolira]

up to $2,500 us! just to make atari music? lol do you what to play the guitar or the kboard? hahah

for me there is nothing like a real guitar ( gibson, fender, ibanez etc ) connect to a bulbs amp!!! :D

[V5Blanks]

@resagolira the point is more to get a guitar that has total control over all sustain (or lack of sustain). It is a normal guitar, too, it just can also control a synthesizer as a bonus feature (and, because you can have infinite sustain, that allows you to play midi instruments more realistically because synthesizers generally have that capability while guitars (besides the moog guitar) do not.

Also, why is Ibanez more of a real guitar compared to this? Isn't Rickenbacker more classic?

[TheDadsr]

do a fretless moog guitar pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase!

[Omie789]

Hmm...I'd like to control a Theremin with this...

[damios1]

God, I could shred the shit out of that guitar...so many different possibilities its almost mind boggling. This could definitely change music forever if these guitars become popular. Metal would sound amazing, Blues, Funk, Pop, everything would gain an extra dimension of musicality and at the same time it could change everything we know about solos and shredding. I want.

[Zhorellski]

Hows this any different from Rolands VG guitar?

[seanstone07]

@Zhorellski it sounds good

[mindphlux]

moog just kicked everyone's ass with this guitar

[TeflonSoul]

I've been thinking it'd be awesome to add MIDI capability to the Moog Guitar for some time, apparently the people at Moog were too! Awesome possibilities...

[PhotoAnimationGuy]

awesome, great move on moog's part... now they only need a six voice analog polysynth to use with it! then all the guitar players can buy it too :)

[Meteotrance]

this guitar is so strange, and his posibility is endless !!!

[hungrymouths]

Retro and futuristic at once!

[Obiwannabe]

i cant even watch this it makes me want to vomit just at the thought of how awesome this is

[colorform2113]

this really does change everything. moog has raised the bar so unbelieablely high

[abigorswhispers]

@colorform2113 Maybe I'm wrong but isn't it just the same as a keyboard, or almost ? I mean, you could all just pull out those sounds from a keyboard.... No ?

[V5Blanks]

@abigorswhispers Well, yes and no. Some of us aren't very good at keyboard so, for me, it would be much easier to control a synth with a guitar. Remember, keyboard is just a conventional way of controlling a synthesizer. There's no reason not to control one with a wind instrument or a guitar.

Plus it's also a standalone guitar and not just a midi controller.

[lukuntri]

@V5Blanks its not right controlling synth with guitar synth meant to be keyboard and if guitars will have control on synth who will play Mini Moog in band.thanks god they did not make it with Hammond organ too

[keysB3P]

@abigorswhispers Yes sir you are able to do just that!

[UTubeIsTrackingYou]

@keysB3P Not if it's being played by a skilled and creative guitarist.

[64mung]

Simply amazing!

[WeirdRicky]

This is the future of music making in my opinion.

[PhlegmEcstasy]

I NEED this.

I NEEEEEED thisssss :c
