For years digital keyboard players enjoyed unparalleled flexibility and functionality in interfacing and composing with their computers, such as the ability to instantly create notation and change sounds generated by their instruments with the push of a button. The SoundTech Ediface now offers this flexibility and functionality to guitarists as well as the ability to use a real guitar with computer games.
The Ediface Digital Guitar Interface comes with a pick-up and converter that attaches directly to any electric, acoustic electric or acoustic guitar. The Ediface is fully plug and play compatible with Windows XP or higher as well as Mac OSX; no driver install is necessary.
The SoundTech Ediface package includes Guitar Wizard, a game that allows users to jam along to popular songs while learning to play a real guitar. Guitar Wizard teaches aspiring musicians everything from single note picking to complex chords and strumming techniques.
"We developed the Ediface to give guitarists and aspiring guitarists an easy and fun way to interact with their computers through guitar play," said Larry English, president of US Music Consumer Division. "From composing to gaming, the possibilities with the SoundTech Ediface are virtually limitless."
Modern Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software, such as Sony Acid™ Music Studio and Apple GarageBand harness the power of PCs allowing musicians to play samples and software instruments. With the SoundTech Ediface guitarists can control these programs to play sampled sounds and synthesized instruments such as a keyboard or piano, a different style guitar, drums or a woodwind instrument. Using the SoundTech Ediface, guitarists can compose a complete masterpiece controlling and recording each instrument from trumpets to tympanis using their guitar.
