Thanks, but driving MIDI instrument is no problem. I send that data over a USB cable and don't even need to have the volume up for the GK cable's "terror". Interesting that you are mentioning pitch tracking since that is what I normally use instead of the GR-55 :-) Currently only in the AxeFx but in the past also in Live and similar apps. I'm subscribing to the M4L new patches library but can't recall having seen a "pitch tracker to MIDI" patch yet. Is that what your thing does? Or does it track analog amplitude directly to synth wave forms?
