LIGHTWAVE SYSTEMS A device that transmits light pulses over optical fibers at extremely high speeds (Gbits/sec range). Many intercity telephone trunks have been converted to lightwave systems.  recently released their improved optical pickup system for bass guitar. Dubbed dub 1

 "S2," the system is now available to all Original Equipment Manufacturers.

In January 2000 Lightwave Systems introduced its first optical pickup to the music industry, a fixed-bridge design system utilizing an audio board with bass and treble treble, highest part in choral music, thus corresponding in pitch to soprano, but associated with the voice of a boy or a girl. The term appeared in 15th-century English polyphony, probably as an anglicization of the Latin triplum,  tone controls. The system was well received by the marketplace, but critics of the system focused on lack of flexibility in tone control options. The company's R&D team quickly responded by designing a new system that meets these industry demands and more. S2 features the company's Monolithic Single object. Self contained. One unit.  bridge design, i.e. one per string, six-channel motherboard Also called the "system board," it is the main printed circuit board in an electronic device, which contains sockets that accept additional boards. In a desktop computer, the motherboard contains the CPU, chipset, PCI bus slots, AGP slot, memory sockets and controller circuits for the , plug-on daughterboards for unlimited tonal flexibility, multiple power supply options, and iceTone for each string.

LightWave Systems' revolutionary optical pickup is the first alternative to the conventional magnetic pickup since 1965. This technology utilizes opto-electronics to "see" the vibration of the string, enhancing the strings' true voice by eliminating the magnetic influence or "pull" on the metal strings. These optics accurately convert string motion into a precise electrical signal for hi-fidelity reproduction of sound. The end result: the most powerful and responsive method of string transduction transduction, in genetics: see recombination.

 ever developed, and sound unachievable by any other pickup system.
