Roland has been producing guitar synths for many years and they were really the first company to induce it right. Now Strat lovers can access all the unbelievable options of the Roland guitar synth and modeling modules by choosing the surprisingly reasonable Roland-Ready Strat . It has all the features of the Standard Stratocaster , sort of a fast action maple neck, comfort-contoured body, 3 single-coil pickups and synchronized tremolo, but it conjointly adds the convenience of a designed-in Roland GK-2A pickup system, which permits you to drive peripherals directly from the guitar's on-board controls.
I was thinking of getting the Roland guitar synth kit (GR-twenty synth+GK3 pickup) to experiment with some different sounds at Roland guitar center. My 1st concern would be avoiding any guitar drilling since Sick be putting it on an archtop, and Im wondering if that can be done while not compromising the soundness of the pickup. Second, Ive been reading a bit concerning latency issues with the MIDI pickups especially on the lower strings. Since I would principally use it live, with an avant-garde trio where I could be the only harmony instrument, I positive want the low strings in real time.
The GR-55 borrows a thing or two from the VG-99, which offers virtual guitars and can send MIDI to external synthesizers. However, the GR-55 goes a step further, layering its virtual-guitar technology with a built-in, sample-based synthesizer, as well as offering MIDI connectivity via USB 2.0 and standard MIDI In and Out ports. Another welcome feature is the USB port’s ability to act as a dedicated audio interface. However, the input is for guitar only; there is no mic input. The GR-55 may also be the first Roland guitar synth that transmits and receives MIDI clock; although there’s no sequencer in the unit, the effects and patches can be clock-driven.
