Wiimote strapped on guitar for wild effects, whammy bar gets totally jealous
Engadget — ... can use it to make yourself a better guitarist. YouTube member rockin1208 has hosted up a video of him executing all sorts of nasty pitch bends and whatnot thanks to a Wiimote strapped onto his Strat. Put as simply as possible, he pipes the Wiimote data to Max / Msp, which then sends MIDI data to a Digitech Whammy pedal.

Morris says he uses a program called Max/MSP to send the Wiimote ...

Rob Morris' Wiimote hacked guitar is extremely cool: he's able to use the built-in accelerometer as a pitch-changing whammy bar by simply raising or dipping the guitar, and he can pull off even more fantastic sounds by pressing the Wiimote's face buttons. And then, of course, there's the fact that his band is called Vivian Darkbloom, making him — at the very least — Humbert Humbird's new favorite musician. Wiimote Guitar Effects Control [Hack A Day]
