If you got 90% then you could probably get 99% with the right guitar pickup combo... I am quite attached to my guitar so wouldn't dream of getting another guitar, but there are guitars out there that are specifically designed for use with guitar-MIDI convertors, such as the Brian Moore's and the Godins... Regarding the Parker MIDI fly, apparently they don't cope with hammer-ons very well... the second note is usually too quiet (oe doesn't sound at all) and the only practical solution is to not do hammer-ons... Check the midiguitar group archives for more info... Stu -----Original Message----- From: erik_magrini@... [mailto:erik_magrini@...] Sent: 18 September 2003 14:10 To: xl7@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [xl7] Guitar to MIDI convertors I tried all the Roland's and the Axon as well, plus another one I can't remember the name of. The Axon was definitely the best, but it was still giving me the occasional glitch. I just can't spend the money right now on something that requires me to change my playing style too much. The Axon was like 90% there in terms of playability for me, so hopefully in the very near future improvement in the system will make me change my mind. rEalm I've got an Axon AX-100 which I think is great.. plays fine for me... It glitches a bit, but that's coz my guitar has always been very harmonically rich which seems to throw the convertor sometimes (old dull strings actually work better...) Bends and slides play great - no problem there... I got it set to 24 semitones pitchbend range which seems to work better for me than 12 semitones. What convertor(s) did you try?
