Multi Channel Music Recognition for an Electric Guitar

 Take a guitar with 6 strings and convert each string independently to MIDI format  MIDI is an electronic music format used for music and control signals in computers and hardware  This makes it possible for each string to have a different instrument sound

 Piezo signal sent to audio interface.  Interface to computer  Code implemented as VST plugin applied in DAW  Signal converted to MIDI format  Played back through MIDI instrument

 Have been acquired  Test fitting – Not fully compatible with the guitar used for the project  Signal testing – Recorded samples

 Note Detection using FFT  Frequency to MIDI Conversion  Velocity and Note duration

 SDK downloaded  Found several tutorials  Learning C++ coding

 Finish Matlab version of the code  Full MIDI file writing  Develop VST plugin  Get basic examples working  Start transferring Matlab code  Get guitar fully fitted and setup with Piezo elements  May require work on the bridge  Get wiring from piezo signals to Interface  Ribbon cable to input jacks
