PROGRAMMABLE SIGNAL PROCESSING AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENT SETUP SYSTEM FOR STRINGED MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS, AND METHOD FOR PROGRAMMING AND OPERATING THE SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a programmable signal processing and musical instrument setup system for stringed musical instruments, which comprises at least one analog signal processing circuit, a control circuit operably coupled to at least one analog signal processing circuit and a storage unit operably coupled to the control circuit, being arranged on the musical instrument for storing setup parameters for the musical instrument. The system comprises: a communication module with an individual identification information connected to the control circuit for enabling communication with an external programming device, the external programming device comprises a communication module, a control circuit, a display, data input means, and storage means, wherein the storage means of the external programming device is configured for storing an individual identification information of at least one musical instrument, in association with the musical instrument in at least one configuration file. The external programming device is further configured for receiving data from a selected musical instrument, when connected, and sending data to a selected musical instrument, when connected, wherein the data transferred to the musical instrument can be stored in the musical instrument and can be used after the external programming device is disconnected.
