Using USB as MIDI (Rocksmith USB Cable)

[7777 Tʜɛ Ӻ๑๛∂ß¡tξr]

Hello,
Is it possible to map my USB device as a midi controller in Music Creator 6 Touch, more importantly via my Rocksmith USB cable and guitar?

There is a VST plug-in on the market that provides this functionality: http://jamorigin.com/products/midi-guitar/

Awesome, thank you for getting me on the right track, quite derp of me x).

Any chance in your wizardry you could include a native way to do this? Say use it in place of anywhere you could use the piano roll or step sequencer ?

Hey, can you hit me up on chat? I got a few burning questions about getting my recording stuff setup.

Sorry, I was still logged into Steam last night when I left the office.

Unfortunately, I don't know of a native way to do this. It's actually quite difficult to translate audio sounds to MIDI. It usually involves some pretty complex (and expensive) algorithms.

There are a few other ways you could accomplish this though.

• Grab one of the MIDI guitar pickups here: http://www.sweetwater.com/c593--MIDI_Guitars_Pickups
  
  These are probably the most effective methods, even better than product I linked earlier.
  
• Melodyne can convert audio to MIDI notes. If you were to use SONAR X3 Studio or Producer, you could record single note/voice lines, then drag the audio clips to a MIDI track. Melodyne would automatically convert it to a MIDI performance that you could edit further in the Piano Roll View.
  
• Melodyne Editor, the higher tier Celemony product can actually convert polyphonic/chordal performances to MIDI in the same manner if you have it installed along with SONAR X3.

Hey I am using Jam Origins Midi Guitar with Music Creator 6 Touch. Works flawlessly you need to follow their setup instructions for Sonar and use ASIO4ALL. It's working pretty good altough you can't mash power chords like a madman and expect it to get everything right ;D It's better to play it slowly and really clear and later speed it up. You get all kinds of different sounds out of it picking strength, palm mutes and bends all have an effect. They allow you to use it as a free trial I recommend you try it out.
