[sdiy] My 12 x Moog 921B VCO clones finaly built...

[Jean-Pierre Desrochers]

Well it is at the very start so far but I have some ideas:

Solid guitar body (with rear hollowed fopr mechanic & electronics)
with original neck installed with 6 x .014 gauge strings not tuned
but bent enough to stop on a bridge on body then curve inside
and stretched with use of small ending springs.

One string description:

String notes reading:
Each neck frets will be cut out to 6 parts
and the metal contact between the fret section and the string will
be read as a note played. A design allready used in the 70's Guitorgan controller.

Reading String picking and bendings:
Each of the string spring's end is glueded to the body and stuck to a piezo element
to read string picking strokes while the other spring end stretches with string bending on the neck
fingerboard. The shaft of a small slide potentiometer is attached
on the spring moving side reading the bending.

All the analog readings to a PIC and MIDI'ed output.
These are some starting ideas for this project.
