MIDI Bass: Does it exist anymore?

I'm looking to control synth sounds while playing bass. Does anyone make a MIDI bass pickup anymore? The closest thing I've found is the Roland V-Bass System and GK-2B Pickup, though it DOES NOT control other MIDI devices.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Jon

Steve Chick pioneered the wired -fret approach that Peavey and some Wal basses featured. That is the fastest triggering i have seen yet. There's a Axxon system that some people swear by but i could not get the settings right to control it the way i wanted to. From what I have read, a graph-tech or RMC system which uses sensors in the bridge saddle works best for tracking. Not sure how the Roland pickup would track MIDI - though it tracks the V bass with no delay, but again, it's not converting to midi... I have been waititng many years for someone to perfect this science for bassists.

Praise ye the LORD.

....praise him with stringed instruments and organs...

Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD.
