Its waaaaay more than a polyphonic ebow!!!! How can you say
that...Its not just able to ADD infinate sustain but to reduce it,
therfore making more banjo-like tones
admittedly 6K seems
too much, but im sure thats the R&D talking...
some of the
videos ive seen have the players explain how the guitar actually changes
its FEEL as it changes attack modes. This interests me. Although Ive
said this before on the list - I have a fernandez pickup on my
baritone guitar, and when it is on (almost all the time) my guitar
"comes alive", and pushes back. Anyone who has worked under extreme
volume levels (but WITH earplugs) will know, that is a very satisfying
feeling. Im sure that with less attack (more sustain) comes a relaxed,
wild and free playing style, wheras short decay (with no accidental
re-triggering as with my midi guitar sounds) will give a more precise
and careful playing style.
Incidentaly, can anyone with the V
System tell me, what is it like to play thru it with loud volume, does
it still react as a guitar, or is it more like a midi guitar.
Ive ben
considering this system for ages, but I really donīt care to get a
system just cos it prtends to me just like the same combination of strat
and marshall as Hendrix used on All along the watchtower.. god no.. what
is the point (unless you are in the band that plays on the
danish/norwegian channel...) But Im very interested if I can just plug
in my baritone, and make a new instrument.
Anyway, back to
thread, I agree with Toby, any day now Im sure Behringer... I mean
someone will bring out a cheaper version.. Ha
ha..

Moog Guitar
At first glance, $6K seems like a
lot for a one-trick pony. I can create more interesting sounds when
I plug my guitar into my laptop and use max/msp. Now that I
think of it, the sound clips on the moog website make it sound like
just an over glorified slide guitar or guitar using an ebow. I was
expecting some fat moog like sounds coming out of a guitar...like a
Roland GR300 but a lot better.
