So, obviously the OpenChord project is pretty much over. However, I'm starting up a new project/video game! More details on the blog.

    Sorry for the lack of recent updates.. These last 2 weeks have been kinda busy.
    First, we’ve been spending a lot of time trying to build a chip to allow us to interface directly with the PlayStation 2, which has gone a lot worse than expected. We’ve had some success; we’ve gotten our chip to work, but unfortunately, it only seems to work with games OTHER than Guitar Hero. Awkward.
    Second, and more exciting, we’ve also been working on a simpler-to-make version of the V1, one that’s just a mod of one of those “Guitar Hero Controllers in a Real Guitar Body” things. Still working on a few things, but that should be out soon…
    So thanks for bearing with us! We’ve been doing stuff, we swear!

    Welcome to OpenChord.org. Our goal is to turn a regular electric guitar into a Guitar Hero/Rock Band controller while retaining as much of the original guitar-playing experience as possible. Right now, we’re probably about halfway to the dream, but what we’ve already got is pretty rockin’. So check out the site, see what we’ve got, and let us know what you think at contact@openchord.org.
