Re: playing drums with a MIDI guitar

[sine@zerocrossing.net]

I found the recent Roland GR series to be bad in general with sounds,
especially percussion sounds.  Using the GR-30 to control a Roland
XV-5050 and a Korg MS2000R has made a *huge* difference in my quality
and verity of sonic pallet.  Each is profoundly different, and do
different things better.  My only issue with the MS2000 is that it
causes you to have to set the pitch bend of the GR 30 to 12 for it to
track correctly.  I'd probably be much better off with the Yamaha MIDI
converter, as I don't really use the GR-30 for anything other than a
MIDI converter.
