Creators of state of the art digital music products, Misa Digital Instruments have developed a digital guitar for the tech savvy amateur musicians. The Kitara guitar is an electric guitar with a futuristic design that is equipped with a touch screen instead of the strings and the buttons on the handle. The guitar has some amazing features like pre-programming of more than one hundred different sounds and is available in two finishes: “Black ABS Polymer” at a retail price tag of USD 850 and a “Solid Aluminium Limited Edition” at USD2500.
“Most musicians today use some form of audio synthesis or sampling in their music. Virtually any type of sound can be created using these methods. Traditionally, digital piano keyboards have been the dominant instrument for controlling these sounds real-time in a musical setting. At Misa, we provide a new instrument that not only unites traditional guitar playing technique with digital sound, but allows digital guitarists to use playing techniques that are not possible or comfortable on a digital keyboard!”
