We took our design to MechaMusicTronics in the Duderstadt Gallery. We were slightly worried about how it would go over with the crowd, especially since it wasn't tuned perfectly. However, guitar players and non-guitar players alike definitely engaged with the design, from the fader motor's ability to simulate plucking a string, to the voltage divider frets, to the vibrations of the guitar, to the light-up M.

I really liked this project. It was fun to pick up the guitar without knowing how to play and being able to make music. I also liked that the sound produced as not exactly the same as the guitar sound. The organ sounds were really cool! The LED lighting up when you played in a certain way was really neat. I hope this project stays in the cabinet.
ReplyDeleteI liked the idea of sensing pitch through control of resistance when touching the strings, very nice design, nice project as a whole!!
