I've been using the Multiac Nylon with >synth access A fretless MIDI guitar has interesting implications. Presumably this Godin instrument is outfitted with the RMC pickups and outputs six acoustic signals to your MIDI convertor of choice. The convertor then outputs a MIDI note and pitch bend message, but what happens when you're playing "in the cracks"? My Peavey Cyberbass has an interesting MIDI mode whereby each string outputs one MIDI note plus a pitch bend value within a two octave range. That is, as you play up and down the string the note doesn't change, just the pitch bend value. This could work well on a fretless MIDI guitar, but I'm don't know if this mode exisits on any guitar-to-MIDI interfaces. -- ______________________________________________________________ Richard Zvonar, PhD (818) 788-2202 http://www.zvonar.com http://RZCybernetics.com
