The Magpick is an augmented plectrum capable of eliciting new sounds using magnetic pickups normally installed in electric guitars. Magpick uses electromagnetic induction to sense the motion of the guitar pick. This motion is then transformed into nuanced, low-latency sonic interactions. The augmented pick can be used with most electrified string instruments using magnetic transducers.
