Inspired Instruments, Inc. will debut its all-digital-guitar the ‘You Rock Guitar’ at E3. The You Rock Guitar’s patented technology answers the call of the millions of music gamers waiting for the next big thing by bridging the gap between music and games.
Patented Hybrid Musical Instrument
The You Rock Guitar is the perfect complement to any gamer or guitar-player’s collection, adding fun, convenience, versatility, portability and exceptional sound quality. Its exclusive design eliminates the hassle of tuning or restringing a traditional guitar. It connects to an existing amplifier for jamming sessions, or headphones for quiet playing time. Its USB interface connects to any computer, Mac or PC. The guitar can plug into any iPod, MP3 player, cell-phone or stereo receiver. Use iTunes library as your back-up band. The internal sound sources are of 16-bit audio quality. The patented neck feels like strings and frets and is well suited in professional MIDI studios for songwriting, sequencing or additionally driving multiple MIDI instruments in a live performance. Cliff Elion, President of Inspired Instruments states “Gaming requires something beyond a MIDI guitar, in fact, you cannot play any of the popular console music games with a MIDI guitar, that’s why we invented the multi-touch fret board technology. The future of music gaming can now be in your hands.”
