Thanks to the makey makey circuit:

When I touched the fret after the 12th, the signal goes to the makey makey, then to the computer (& pedalboard), then to the amp.

THIS. IS. AWESOME. I also love the look of that guitar in general. But as someone who's just starting to get into and study monomes I'm doubly jealous.

Thanks a lot to all for your comments!

What kind of ideas do you have ?

I've planned to use the party van app with a specific footswitch controller.


News at the end of the week end :-)

Which effect do you use with ableton?

I'm working on the ability to control three types of looping:
Normal looper sampler
Granular synthesis looping
Pre recorded samples of other instruments (mpc style)

And bonus: a max msp emulation of the cocolase ciat lonbarde
