Yamaha buys Line 6

Ah the Holy Grail of MIDI guitar!!!

I have been waiting since 1990 for that.
But ain’t gonna happen because the laws of physics have not changed.

‘Pitch to Voltage’ recognition will always take as much time as it needs for the ‘cycle’ to complete.
While this works fine on higher notes (frequencies) it is not so kool on lower notes.
That’s why this tech is rough for bassists.
It simply takes too long for the Pitch to Voltage recognition part to be usable in works
other than ballads or adagio (slow) stuff.

There are other ways around this limitation such as the Zeta ‘wired fret’ technology
but that is another topic for discussion.
