Casio - Dimension Shifter
by "... inventor Leo Fujii ... Once you add the transmitter to your strap, you can tug and compress built-in springs as you pull your guitar away from your body. So it has the single-axis expression that a b-bender does, but instead of bending a single string, you transmit a control signal wirelessly to an effect — what it does, as far as sound, is up to you. That kind of gesture has the advantage of being natural to a strap-on instrument, too. (Come to think of it, yes, you could apply this to a keytar, too. Insert keytar joke here if you must.)
The transmitter unit itself allows you to adjust tension, control how the expression is sent (including invert), and includes a HOLD (freeze) function.
The control signal is sent wirelessly over Bluetooth to a receiver, which translates that expressive signal to effects parameters.
You don’t need specialized pedal hardware, either — the receiver has a TRS jack, and there’s even a slide switch so you can cope with the lack of TRS pinout standardization across manufacturers. That gives you the flexibility to decide how you want to use the expression on your pedalboard and musical context ... "
