MIDI

A duo, trio, quartet or even adodecatet, basically any band can benefit from a wee bit of midi guitar. I even know of bands where the guitarist plays midi guitar even though they already have a keyboard player. You will be amazed at how much this technology can augment the sound of any band. If your not huge in record sales you will at least sound huge live!!

It's kind of a shock to the system when a new midi guitar toy comes on the market, as this is probably one of the most forgotten about and dismissed parts of the guitar market. Yet in the current climate of everyone and their dog having the facility to write, record and produce their own music, as guitarists we tend to just be able to play just our trusty faithful 'wire and wood' with some lucky people have the grade 1 piano ability also!

Well, you should really ask yourself, “What is a synthesiser and why should you want one?” Midi guitar allows you to access the same sounds and textures as a keyboard player, but not have to take time out of your guitar development to learn a new instrument. It allows you to use your already refined guitar skills to augment the sound of your band, augment a solo performance by adding a wee bit of sonic atmosphere or just create realistic demos and get ideas down fast with the help of a computer or multi track recorder.
