Re: Anyone using a midi guitar with the XL-7?

2004-01-18 by pgicedrop

I use a Godin Multiac and a Roland Gi10 midi converter with my XL-7. 
Works well, especially with some World expedition patches. I also 
use a Ztar MiniZ midi controller from Starr Labs. This amazing piece 
of equipment is a nice keyboard replacement for a guitarist. It 
allows me to create keyboard tracks in the XL-7 using "two-hands 
tapping" technique. You should check it at 
http://www.starrlabs.com/. Totally different from usual pitch to 
midi conversion.
