Honest discussion about other Midi Guitar options such as Jamstik and Fishman pickups etc

about honest comparing here: I see people here referring to the original jamstik, the short toyish midi controller. This is not comparable: Jamstik however have produced a new product on the basis or a real guitar, with a hex pickup, the “Jamstik Studio MIDI Guitar”
So we’re basically only talking about real guitar solutions here.

The list is in arbitrary order:

  • JamOrigin MIDI Guitar 2
  • Fishman Tripleplay ( Connect ) – the wireless version and the Connect have the same converter.
  • Jamstik Studio MIDI Guitar See https://studiomidiguitar.com
  • Roland/Boss. (did they improve anything since GR55 for midiconversion?)

For reference I have 6 monophonic MG’s running in a host here, fed by GK pickups (thanks Roland ;). It is rather fresh in the making still, but I allready suspect it to be the best overall performing system. (overall performance is not just latency ofcourse: it is how well it makes music and connects you to the synth instruments)
It might be interesting for people owning a Boss GP10. I’ll make another thread about this as soon as I have more data and examples.
