Hi guys! New to the forum. I just recently purchased a Digitone and I’ve got what I believe is an elaborate setup in my mind that I’m not sure what would be the most portable/efficient way to make it work.
Basically my plan is the following:
I want to use my guitar as a Midi Controller using a Fishman Midi Pickup. The USB MIDI receiver from the Fishman is connected to a USB MIDI host which I then connect to the Digitone’s MIDI In. This in essence allows me to create patterns and also play melodies over said patterns. I then want to run the Digitone’s output into a small modular system I made based around a Mutable Instruments clouds to do signal processing. However, I would like to be able to not only clock the modular system using the digitone but also be able to get the MIDI note and velocity information from my guitar into the modular system in realtime without having to make it a pattern on the Digitone. What would be the best way to do this? I’m not sure what piece of gear would be my ideal solution or if there’s another alternative. Laptop is not an option though since I really dislike performing with a computer. (I know that currently the Digitone is not able to output the external MIDI info to other synths, but I know it’ll be solved soon).
I’ve been doing my research but haven’t found an alternative at the moment, was hoping I could get some ideas from you guys.
Cheers!
