I switched from guitar to edm and the original intention was to change guitar tone from distortion to synth with a modular synth. That wasn't going to work though, but this could potential be the solution, and I'd hope it's relatively perfected.

They need to lower that asking price, 800 pound is more than most people would ever spend on a guitar, and it simply cannot cost 800 to make, i wanted one for years but what musician has that amount of money. I played guitar my whole life im 25 and the most ive ever spent on a guitar is 600 and even that is absolutely extortionate. We dont live in the middle ages, they're machine made, not hand made. and yes theyre like the only company really doing this but the fact is they could make this accessible for everyone but theyre choosing to keep it at that stupid price range, if it was 200£ for the same product they would be selling out theyre stock every month, I've needed one for years, but that price is just silly.

first! its a great idea that could be taken a lot further with midi controls on the guitar itself etc. but i feel like 10ms latency is a bit too high. i would use it for playing brass kicks in my funk band that has no brass players. hard to handle with 10ms latency.

Hey Raoul! Thanks for checking out our product, we appreciate your feedback. To be specific, latency ranges from 6ms to 15ms from the high e to the low e. These are for all intents and purposes, limitations of physics. Many players have actually commented that the guitar "feels" like it's faster than stated due to our algorithm setup, so we hope you get a chance to try it for yourself! There are a few B8ta tech stores across the United States that have demo units in-store (jamstik.com/pages/store-locator), but if you're not in a region with a store location, we do have a generous return policy if it's not what you're looking for.

Nah! Not a problem. Brass players play a wee bit behind due to the nature of blowing into something and the sound happening. I've been playing midi brass for years and I find it sounds more 'believable' if the brass is slightly behind. You can aslo get a realistic brass feel by spending more time at the bar than the rest of the band! Besides you don't hear 10ms latency, you might feel it, but it is veeeerrrrrrrry subtle. Remember you are playing a trumpet, not a guitar. I wish my guitar rig was as easy and quick to pack up as a trumpet!

Hi, thanks for sharing the video. I have a PSR Yamaha SX 700 arranger keyboard - which is great for playing chords in the left hand along to the preprogrammed rhythms and arrangements. Could I do something similar with the Jamstick guitar, e.g. play a chord on the guitar to activate the arrangements? It would be great if I could. Thanks

Hey Craig, as long as the arranger keyboard accepts MIDI-input from 3rd party hardware, you should be good to go! You'd use the Jamstik's TRS-MIDI output, and either a TRS-5-Pin adapter and 5-pin cable, OR if the hardware has a TRS input, you'd simply use any 3.5mm aux cord.

You can! We tried this out right away to ensure that we could run all THREE Jamstik outputs simultaneously - the 1/4" audio, USB-MIDI and the 3.5mm TRS-MIDI. This video shows a demo of this process where we're using the TRS output to control a Roland Juno (which is connected via an interface, along with the 1/4") and USB-C-USB-A connected directly into the laptop which is triggering Slate Digital's ANA 2 plugin - all being recorded simultaneously into Logic Pro: kzitem.info/news/bejne/o4acq3qsi5RhqaQ

(do you need a synth with multi midi channels, one per strings ?? Second question, is it really effective under very high speed playing ?? (latency etc...) thanks ;)

Hey there - so sorry for our late reply! The Jamstik Studio MIDI guitar has a 3.5mm TRS-MIDI out (and TRS-5-pin adapter cable) for controlling 3rd party MIDI hardware. If the synth wasn't built for MPE (the Jamstik's default MIDI mode) or Multi-channel, then you can easily switch to Single-Channel mode using the Jamstik Creator software, or by simply double-tapping the power button to toggle between modes. We are very proud of our guitar-MIDI translation and tracking capabilities - the average latency over wired USB connection is 6 to 15 milliseconds, with an average of 10ms. You can check out user reviews on our website, jamstik.com, or check out our community playlist on KZitem to see how others are using the guitar: kzitem.info/door/PL45uHmo8J6fuf7FGvA2zHbBLqGi83zhEn

There's a 3.5mm TRS-MIDI out option, and we include a TRS-5 Pin MIDI cable adapter with every shipment. It does depend on what kind of hardware you're hoping to connect to though-some hardware might have 5-pin MIDI, while others have a TRS input. If it's 5-pin, you can use the included TRS-MIDI cable, but if there's a 3.5mm TRS input, you can simply use an aux cable to connect the two devices via the TRS outputs/inputs. Let us know if you have any other questions!

@justinnaramor6050

When it comes down to it, this device still uses the typical "pitch-to-MIDI" method of converting guitar playing into MIDI. Did you notice how the guy in this video essentially said that the amount of latency varies with pitch (6 MS to 15 MS between the high and low E strings)? That's just due to how pitch-to-MIDI actually works; it's really simple physics, and you can't just defy the laws of physics. Even if you tried to come up with the most "fancy" algorithm for pitch detection, the actual latency time is still going to vary with increasing or decreasing pitch! Now let's talk about bass guitar... let's just say that I was once reading an internet forum where someone wanted to use a bass guitar as a MIDI controller... and it was pretty much agreed upon that pitch-to-MIDI is pretty much a no-no for bass guitars... unless you maybe want to tune the strings up an octave (or more) to combat the latency. And on a bass guitar, the amount of latency is gonna be even higher than with a regular guitar, because bass strings inherently produce much slower cycles of oscillation, therefore resulting in increased latency. So a bass guitar version of the Jamstik Studio would probably be out of the question for this very reason. I know it probably seems like I've practically written an essay, but this stuff is important to know. I've researched this stuff with MIDI guitars (not because I play guitar myself, but because I simply find the concept of playing synthesizer sounds on a guitar rather fascinating). If you were to make a MIDI guitar and you wanted to completely avoid latency altogether (even if the strings vibrate at very low frequencies), you have to use an entirely different approach to pitch tracking: rather than dictating the MIDI pitch by calculating the frequency the string vibrates at, you instead dictate the MIDI pitch by actually calculating where your fingers are pressing on the fretboard. A guy called Rob O'Reilly made a MIDI guitar that works like this, and there was also a MIDI guitar from the 1980s called the "Synth Axe" that also used a similar approach. We've seen similar products throughout the years; the "Z-tar" from Starr Labs is probably one of the most known examples, and it also uses the same approach. A major difference with the Z-tar, though, is that the neck of the "guitar" uses buttons, rather than real frets and strings; pressing and holding these buttons dictates the MIDI pitch, while strumming 6 short strings on the body actually triggers the selected pitches.
