Yes, if you boost the signal level with a Q118 Instrument Interface. Signal levels of a guitar are very low and need to be boosted (amplified) in order to match those of a modular synth. Synthesizers.com modules are not designed to work stand-alone, they need an enclosure such as a cabinet or rack frame, and a power supply system. There is not a module that will extract pitch information from your guitar (Pitch to voltage converter). That is a very difficult task.

There are several aspects of the design of Synthesizers.com systems that are improvements over Moog modules. Some of these things are possible due to better electronics, some are because of my design philosophy, and some are due to hindsight. Here are a few things: This includes font types and sizes, placement of graphics and layout of panels.

Yes. MOTM Modules are made by Synthesis Technology. We both use standard voltages for audio, control and pitch signals (1V/Oct). So there is no problem using the two types of modules together. The difference is the power supply connectors and panel width. MOTM modules are 8.75 high (5U) just like ours but come in width multiples of 1.75". This will leave a gap when placed in a Synthesizers.com cabinet which is expecting module widths in multiples of 2.125 like Moog modules.

Modcan and Cynthia modules have different panel dimensions (9" tall vs 8.75" for the .com and 2.25" wide vs 2.125" for the .com). This prevents using our standard cases to house both types of modules. Modcan and Cynthia modules use +15, -15 volts just like Synthesizers.com systems but the connector is different and special power cables will be needed. Modcan and Cynthia modules use banana jacks instead of 1/4" jacks so you can use our Banana Jack Interface to interface the two types of modules.

Yes, it's very easy to move modules around and most people eventually do so to match their patching style. Synthesizers.com systems are very modular and most modules can be moved to any location in the cabinet. Disconnect the AC Power cord, unscrew the module, pull it out, and disconnect the small DC power connector. Power cables are Keyed to help eliminate incorrect connection. Some modules have Aid modules next to them with cables that connect the two behind the panel.

We use voltage levels that are very common to analog synthesizers which will make it easy to interface with other audio equipment. We use 1 volt per octave pitch control signals, and 10 volt peak to peak waveforms. Usually some attenuation is made of the final output before patching into mixers or amps. We also use 1/4" patch cords which also make life easier when connecting equipment from different manufacturers. The details can be seen on our Technical Information Page.

PIP stands for Programmable Input Processor. These are optional modules that can be plugged into any PIP-compatible amplifier. There are a variety of PIP modules with varying functions. Since first introducing PIP-compatible amplifiers and PIP modules, Crown has updated the PIP standard. This affects which PIP-compatible amplifiers can host certain PIP modules. For more information on the differences between the original PIP and PIP2 standards, click here.

My first guitar was a classical bought at JB Music. My first electric was a pirated (read: fake) Gibson SG also bought at JB.

The Modules tool is a lesson builder that allows instructors to build and publish learning sequences in their OWL-Space course. These learning sequences can be comprised of text, images, web links, files, etc. Learning sequences can be released automatically by OWL-Space based on start and stop dates set by the instructor.

To best explain the most common causes of this problem, lets follow the path of the strings. We begin at the tuners. If the they are poorly made, loose, or installed incorrectly, the strings will slip. Next, the strings can bind at the nut if the slots are cut at the wrong angle or incorrect width. Now the strings pass over the entire neck and this is where intonation is very important. If it has not been properly set, you will notice some chords sound in tune and others do not.

If i haven't called you, its not ready. My goal is to provide quality repairs with reasonable turnaround times. Many of my repairs are done just two or three days. Some repairs take longer than expected and calling me repeatedly does not make me work any faster.

I've collected all the tabs I could find and that people have sent to me. See my page at http://www.gis.net/~jdimaria/tcs/tabs.html Some of the same guitar tabs are available via anonymous ftp at ftp.uu.net /doc/music/guitar and other sites that used to have tabs are no longer available. If you have figured out any tabs, please e-mail them to me and try to post them to ftp.uu.net and also to the list.

I decided to ask him about some of the instruments listed on the album's liner, with such exotic appellations as "snake guitar, "digital guitar," and "desert guitars." In the case of the first, for instance, I had often thought that given Eno's reputation it would not be out of the question for him to lay a guitar down in the middle of the recording studio and tape the sound of a reptile belly crawling slowly across the strings. He laughed.

The first guitar I ever played was a 70's to early 80's model Fender acoustic, which I still have. It is a small guitar and was given to my sister for lessons and she later gave it to me when she realized that the guitar just wasn't for her. It is listed on my gear page- She was something.. I remember her coming to Phoenix when I was just a kid.. she reminded me of Charo - she was almost "not real"..I remember she wanted to take me back to Mexico City.

Slack Key or Ki Ho'alu has often been referred to as Hawaiian Soul Music. Slack Key is indigenous to Hawaii, and while it is the one of the most difficult styles to master, it is one of the most beautiful to listen to. Slack Key has a very interesting history. King Kamehameha III brought several Spanish Cowboys from California to Hawaii in the 1830's to help control the cattle on Hawaii.

Sure. The onboard guitar preamp isn't usually necessary, but the AP 13 will work fine with most all varieties. Check to see if you need phantom power from the AP 13 though. This setting can be very important to maximizing performance with a second preamp.

Next go through the various perl documents - including the FAQ as well as the various relevant man pages: perlmod(1), perlnewmod(1), perlobj(1), perlbot(1), (and please don't forget: perlpod(1)!) Post your idea to comp.lang.perl.tk and discuss it with others - there might very well be someone working on an approach already. A clear explanation of all the stuff that gets put into a module was posted to the mailing list and could be found in the archive at: http://sun20.ccd.bnl.
