Maybe you remember this thread from a couple of years ago, when I bought the "You Rock guitar".
I recorded my take for the funk collab with it: ...and I think it's a good example of how it can be used creatively for synth style improvising. One advantage is that the sound I used is monophonic, which makes things sound cleaner than with a guitar (because I can't mess up and have two strings ringing at the same time accidentally). On the other there is a handicap involved because I need to play all notes using "hammer-ons" from nowhere, and bending/vibrato can only be done with the whammy bar. Supposedly it is possible to configure it to suit most picking styles but I have not bothered doing it. What do you think about this instrument? This is the only midi controller I have ever tried / owned, does anybody else have experience from these? |
