Can you record guitar as MIDI?

Most MIDI controllers are laid out like a piano keyboard, but have no fear; electric guitars can be converted to put out MIDI signals as well.

Why did Godin leave Inter?

What kind of wood is the Godin ACS-SA made out of?

The single-cutaway body is made of silver leaf maple, which Godin believes has a sound, density, and weight similar to mahogany. Overall, the instrument feels solid, yet remarkably lightweight. The ACS-SA/USB is a chambered solid-body guitar, though the chambers aren’t as deep as you’d expect due to the thickness of the maple top.

Is the Godin Multiac ACS-SA a good acoustic guitar?

Because the body is chambered, the ACS-SA/USB has more acoustic volume than a solid-body instrument. The amount of sound it projects is perfectly acceptable for practicing at home when you don’t want to disturb the neighbors, and the acoustic tone is remarkably satisfying.

What kind of preamp does a Godin Multiac have?
