Hey folks,
I recently wondered what ever happened to Misa Digital Guitar.
Remember? That guitar-shaped controller with touch surface and Linux
inside. Turned out they are doing well and actually released source
code and SDK. So I started asking them some questions and before I
knew it became an interview.

Probably less technical details than you would expect. Still... enjoy :)

Cool but kind of expensive (not really out of line--compare Ipad + neck with
buttons.)

Now this looks more and more interesting to me -- the MISA-Project too
much tried to resemble a guitar so everybody (including me) thought,
that it is not much more than a crude electronic toy for people, that
are too lazy to learn how to play a real instrument.
But the more the thing becomes a kind of an all-purpose MIDI-controller
the better I like it ;-)
So kudos for keeping the faith and developing the concept to something
really interesting.

Check out the urock or youirock guitar. Similar but with "hard" strings
to
pluck. So less versatile but more guitar-like.

Personally, I think it's because Michael used the synthesized guitar
sound in the initial video :) So the misconception was kinda
self-inflicted.
