The purists may think it's a compromise, but I like what I see in this new digital guitar design.Inside the milled plastic is an AMD Linux box, an 8.4" 800×600 LCD touch screen and MIDI output.
It's called Misa. [mee-zah] The screen control works in four directions, allowing control of two sound parameters simultaneously. These can really be anything you can program into a MIDI device, but in the video the y-axis is set to control note velocity and the x-axis controls distortion.
The Misa is not intended to replace the guitar. It is a new instrument entirely.
