<article> <section class="page"> <p> Not everyone is blessed with musical talent. But that’s OK, because technology can make up for what we lack. I just tried out a digital guitar that made me feel like a virtuoso despite having no skills whatsoever.</p><p> You’ve probably played Guitar Hero or Rock Band before, and using the new rhythm guitar from Magic Instruments is a similar type of experience, though it feels less like a game and more like a real jam session. This guitar won’t teach you how to position your fingers on the fretboard, because those complicated finger gymnastics have been replaced by buttons. To play a chord, you press a button and start strumming.</p><p> A karaoke-style app guides you through a song by putting numbers over words so you know which button to press and when. The app will have tens of thousands of songs at launch and cost $5.99 a month to access all of them, or you can pay 99 cents per song.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3057247/hardware/first-look-magic-instruments-rhythm-guitar-makes-you-sound-like-a-pro-with-the-push-of-a-button.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: First Look: Magic Instruments' rhythm guitar makes you sound like a pro with the push of a button (http://www.macworld.com/article/3057247/hardware/first-look-magic-instruments-rhythm-guitar-makes-you-sound-like-a-pro-with-the-push-of-a-button.html#tk.rss_all) |
