re: OT: audio to midi converter
>> audio to midi hardware convertor for a guitar, which is tuned down
>almost into the bass range
The default setting for the Axon AX-100 MKII tracks based on the pick
transient rather than the frequency, which reduces the delay usually
associated with pitch-to-voltage conversion of low notes. It works with
standard 6-string Roland 13-pin pickups and cables and allows the guitar
signal to go through the same cable. I won't even begin to describe the
flexibility of this unit - suffice to say it's probably the most
sophisticated unit out there - and not terribly expensive.
I have the older unit and am pleased (although I'm in standard tuning).
The built-in sounds are standard General MIDI and pretty ho-hum, but even
with external modules or soft synths, it tracks the same as with the
internal sounds.

There's quite a bit of information on the Yahoo Groups site in the
midiguitar forum (http://groups.yahoo.com/). You'll need to join the group
to view the discussion. A great resource for midi guitarists of all
stripes.
