TerraTec Acquires Axon Guitar-to-MIDI Technology

At this year's Musikmesse, TerraTec will have a presence in the guitar/bass hall in addition to their main booth. The reason for this addition is TerraTec Electronic's acquisition of Blue Chip's Axon technology.

Be it an acoustic or electric, a western steel string or a bass guitar, AXON guitars into MIDI instruments. A notable feature of AXON is its ability to address external sound modules as fast as it triggers the optional internal sound board, according to the company. Blue Chip's engineers have developed an early recognition system that analyzes impulses generated by the plucking of a string. The system recognizes pitch before the sound of the string is fully audible. The dynamics and duration of the tone are computed on the basis of the string's vibration.

Priced at 799.00 euros, the AX 100 is available now. The AX 100 SB, which inludes the Soundboard, is priced at 899.00 euros.
