How to control the DS Guitar

The videos of DS Guitar “M-06” software are impressive. The tool can be used to make the Nintendo DS a full functioning guitar by using the stylus to select notes. You can select chords with the D pad and the top screen shows what chord you’ve selected. On the bottom screen you move the stylus as if you were moving a guitar pick to make music. It’s a simple set up to learn, but if you want to make music with this you’re going to need to be musically inclined. That might make DS Guitar “M-06” less approachable than Electroplankton where anyone can make melodies by poking the bright plankton on the screen.
