Yeah guitars are cool, but imagine if they didn't sound like guitars at all? What about synths? Roland thought about it. So they made something that did that! Like that, the GR-55 and accompanying GK-3 pickup were born!
Now, up until the GR-55, the guitar and synth weren't always the best of friends with earlier options being clunky, difficult to use, and often times with sonic quality that wasn't worth the hassle. Thank god that's behind us! With the GR-55 you've got hundreds of preset sounds ready for you to play to your heart's content, and with lightning fast tracking you won't be missing a single note. As a matter of fact, the unit is not only pitch accurate, it is dynamically sensitive and will even track through bends and chords. Accessing all this processing power is also made a breeze thanks to the handy LCD screen and the easy to understand editing and directive controls. Not enough control? Hookup the GR-55 via usb to your computer for easy recording and editing on the fly.
Now I hear your next question, but how does all of this get translated to the synth? That's where the handy GK-3 pickup comes into play. Once installed, the pickup serves as a translator of sorts, intaking your playing and translating it on the fly into that sweet sweet midi that the GR-55 knows and loves. All while not damaging the guitar or interfering with your electronics.
