Superb sounding hollow bodied carbon fibre and kevlar 5 string electric violin, with custom pickup. |

The main controller for Guitar Rig, and is also the audio interface for the Mac. I use this for additional effects modulation, expression, tuning and tap tempo. |

additional MIDI controller connected to the Rig Kontrol. This allows me switch on and off 8 individual effects in the effects chain, and control the program changes. Very programmable, and built like a tank (good for me). |

I'm using two of these as expression pedals, plugged into the Rig Kontrol 3. I can add another two into the Ground Control Pro at a further date :) |
