[looper's] RE: Starr guitar

Title: [looper's] RE: Starr guitar

>>The Starr Labs Ztar uses switches--buttons--to represent each fret of the
guitar.  So there's 144 locations--6x24--and with the new software you can
map the crap out of it.  Also available are "strings" or pad type triggers
to actuate the notes (I don't have these) and pads, which can send CCs and
PCh in addition to Note Info--I think you can mix and match up to eight
messages per pad.  There's also a joystick!  And then there's ribbon
controller and breath controller options--he was working on an electronic
whammy bar--and more stuff I just can't even think of.
Harvey's got some pretty high profile clients, but the stuff is pretty
darned whizzy--<<

gah! sounds right up my street! I'm a reasonably able bassist, crap guitarist and rubbish keyboard player, and struggle with all manner of interfaces (analogue sequencers, midi controllers and the like), but the most comfortable experience is a midi'd guitar at the moment. and it's far from ideal. I'm going to have to start saving again.... you could run your entire show without any other controllers or footswitches.....

duncan.
