RE: [xl7] Guitar to MIDI convertors

2003-09-18 by Stu

I dunno how much spare cash you got at the mo, but there's an Axon AX-100
going on eBay for $425 right now, which is dirt cheap considering these
things usually go for between $600-800 or even more... This one includes the
pickup too.

Alternatively, you could try a Yamaha G-50...

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.

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?
