Guitar Effects Midi Controller
What is a MIDI controller and how do i out one in my electric guitar?
people are saying that midi controllers are good for inguitar guitar effects, i know nothing about them,
please tell me what they are how they work and maybe some pictures.
thanks
There are MIDI guitars, but MIDI doesn’t make sound and it doesn’t process it. The only thing traveling over MIDI wires is info, and never sound.
To get a picture of what MIDI does, think of those keyboards that plug into the computer, but have no speakers. They send MIDI info to the computer and a software program on the computer produces the sound. All of the sound creation and sound processing (like echo, delay, and reverb) are happening in the computer.
The MIDI is just telling it all how to happen. It’s like a conductor leading an orchestra. The orchestra players make the music, but the conductor tells them when to play. MIDI is the conductor.
For a guitar that has MIDI out ability, you can tell the computer or specialized amp what sounds to make, but again, it will be that amp or computer that is processing the audio. The cool thing about the guitars is if you have multiple MIDI controls on the guitar, you can control a wide range of sounds and effects. You would need a program or special amp to make this happen, because again, that is where the sound is happening.
Here’s an example of a MIDI setup with a guitar. A good one isn’t cheap, but they seem to be getting rarer, so they may very well become collectors items.

Pretty Cool if you ask me. There are things that I have only dreamed of playing on the piano that I could easily play on guitar. If you feel like dropping bills, I’d say try it out.
Cheers
