  • @nickdrake5611
    @nickdrake5611 10 лет назад +3

    This is about latency time questions which remain unanswered. I am a long-time user of Roland guitar synths. Roland GK pickups work on the basis of "listening" to the strings to identify the actual pitch. Such listening takes a certain time, and this time will be longer for low pitched sounds coming from upper strings (or any other string if tuned particularly low), since lower frequencies are naturally defined by longer periods of oscillation. So, no matter how good and modern this technology is: you will always find a delay between what you play and what you hear. While this delay is almost unnoticeable for higher tones, say strings 1 thru 4 in standard EADGBE tuning, it starts to be something on 5th string played on the first frets, and ends as a real problem on a wide region of the 6th string. Fortunately, setup options available in GR synths allow the assignation of lower tones to thinner strings. Thus, if your bass line works bad on 6th and 5th, you may "retune" (on the device, not the guitar) your 4th and 3rd and play the same stuff on them instead, where there's no noticeable delay (since their actual physical vibration frequencies remain higher than those on 5th and 6th). As an user, I would be the first one pleased to know when this is finally solved, but I am afraid it would require a different "listening" device, one with an inmediate response, as in the SynthAxe.

    • @kitemanmusic
      @kitemanmusic 6 лет назад +1

      How about replacing strings 5 & 6 with lighter gauge strings tuned an octave higher, then re-assign the pitch to play an octave lower? No good of course if you want to play the actual guitar sound, but it would solve the delay problem. Use an electric guitar patch to simulate.

      You're missing the point here... This can turn your guitar into a midi controller. It's not just about the live synth sounds. For any proficient guitarist who sucks at keyboard and needs to compose music professionally and in a hurry using midi data this is a god send. Connect this to the ESX24 in Logic and you can sample ANYTHING on your guitar. There are infinite possibilities here for recording and composing

    For anyone thinking of buying a GR55 based on this video: It takes MANY hours to understand and learn how to dig into detailed patch settings and parameters. I compare it to learning a whole new instrument - it will take time (perhaps years) to replicate your favorite sounds. I bet this guy spent 10-20 hrs to get these sounds set up.
    You will find yourself doing double-duty between programming patches and playing music. That said, it is WELL worth it.
