I am actually considering buying the AX-50, because my main application is to capture lead notes coming out of my guitar. I have to install the Roland GK-3 midi pickup to my regular guitar. Do you think the AX-50, GK-3 and Cubase 3/4 package will enable me to excellent tracking of lead notes? Is the sensitivity configuration on AX-50 or GK-3 hard/tricky to accomplish a good note tracking? Thanks much again. BTW, I wish there is an equipment note tracking utube demo for AX-50 like this one.

If I remember correctly it was version 3

Which Cubase version is that? Cubase 4, Cubase Studio 4, Cubase Essential 4? Or is it the Cubase LE that comes with the Terratec AXON AX 100 MK II purchase? Thanks.

The software is the notation editor within Steinberg Cubase.

May I ask, what soft is being used to track the notes? It seems like it's Notation Axon, when I look closely at the video clip, but I am not for sure. Is the Notation Axon included as part of the AX-50/100 package? Whatever is used to demonstrate, it certainly tracks the note so well. I am seriously considering to buy the AX-50 to mainly for tracking of lead notes. Thanks in advance.

i use this everyday when composing soundtracks to my personal paintball video collection. it is wonderful.

very good presentation. around 0:45 when he plays the jazz stuff I could hear some notes get played twice instead of the intended 1 attack. I noticed that with my GI-10 as well, by the way. I use the GI10 now over 10 years. The quality is really much better then the GR-707 that I used before.

Any midi controller can emulate drums. Sorry, but duh. It's not the controller that "emualates" them, its the synth that is producing the sound. Get it?

Wow, that clav sound.. I can't wait to get all those Windows 95 midi sounds from my axe.

So do you just plug this straight into your guitar and then into your amp? like a regular pedal.

..and for the comments below: this thing is not about sounds, you can trigger anything with it, it is about the tracking! I have the AX-50 USB version and would never again play any other guitar-midi converter of this kind.

You really have to play very, very clean and have a very good guitar with good intonation to archieve these results.But he is not lying, it is the best and fastest of its kind.(although the latency is still noticeable its no comparison to roland or shadow)

What the FUCK is this?! i never knew that MIDI will ever be soo cool! maybe i will get one..

"perfectly laid out". Splorf.The thing does seem to track really well.

Yes... but will it blend?

For performance, the Roland VG-8EX is more interesting as a synth. No ROM triggering, instead it's truer string synthesis with no latency. For midi triggering, the Yamaha G10/G10C controls very good any synth.

:-)

I was torn between axon and roland but now that i see axon can emulate drums it's no contest! very cool stuff!
