Instead, the software is optimized through intelligent algorithms that are incredibly effective at tracking direct audio input, specifically from a guitar or bass. The application requires no additional hardware or attachments. Also, I hated the idea of attaching anything to my guitar.Ī few years ago I came across Jam Origin’s MIDI Guitar plugin (which also comes as a standalone application) and was immediately impressed. Although it was novel and fun to play with for a while, due to the many stuck notes, latency and bad tracking, it soon became more trouble than it was worth. It involved a MIDI pickup that needed to be attached to your guitar which plugged into a box that acted as a sound module and interface. My first experience with MIDI guitar was with a Roland MIDI Guitar system I borrowed from a friend sometime in the late 80s (don’t recall the exact model). But a large part of my creative practice includes live guitar performance and processing, so I thought I’d offer some insight on my efforts to create a synergy between these sonic worlds. Most of the articles I’ve written for The Pro Audio Files have been based on synthesis in the analog and digital realms.
