Vigier turns on memory

Music Hardware : Vigier turns on memory - macmusicVigier Guitars presented a new prototype of a memory guitar. Vigier has already sold in the past memory guitars so it's not virgin territory for them.

The guitar is MIDI, settings can be modified during playing time with up to 128 program changes. The setting itself are passive, they do not change the sound of the pickups nor the guitar is a modeling device either.

The pickup parameters are playing on 17 pickup combinations, actual selection is indicated by 6 LEDs:

Switch 1: 3 positions for the neck pickup, OFF/Single-coil/Humbucker
Switch 2: 2 positions for the middle pickup, OFF/ON
Switch 3: 3 positions for the bridge pickup, OFF/Single-coil/Humbucker
Switch 4: 3 positions, STANDBY (all pickups OFF), Bridge pickup Humbucker alone/Sw1+Sw2+Sw3 Master

The controls can be modified by the player while in performance still from the on board controls, it won't affect the memorized settings stored in the memory of the guitar.

Volume and Tone controls are like a standard guitar. Powering comes from a single 9V battery, memory is not volatile. MIDI in and audio out are on a single 5 pins DIN jack.
Price and availability TBA
