  • Roland GR-55 Guitar Synthesizer overview at Full Compass Systems with Roland Product Specialist, Robert Marcello
    Roland's GR55GK is a fast and accurate guitar synthesizer that features pitch-detection technology, and a triple-core generator that houses an array of virtual guitars, basses, amps and synth voices. Quick-access category buttons grant you instant access to the GR55GK's vast library of ready to use sounds.
    Features:
    • Up to 4 sound sources at a time: 2 PCM synth tones, plus COSM guitar modeling and normal guitar input
    • Easy to use and play with hundreds of ready-to-use sounds for rock or pop guitarists
    • Advanced Roland technology provides superb sound quality and fast processing
    • Over 900 of Roland's fully editable PCM sounds, including pianos, organs, strings, vintage synths, and much more
    • 2 types of multi-effects engines, plus global reverb, chorus, and delay effects, and an on-board looper
    • MIDI controller that connects to other instruments and software
    • Built-in USB audio player with foot control
    The GR55GK's triple-core engine comprises 2 PCM synthesizers (with over 900 tones, each powered by Roland synthesis technology) and COSM guitar modeling, featuring a bevy of guitar, bass, amp, and synth models. Together, these combined technologies allow you to create unique sounds. The "Metal Synth Lead" preset, for example, combines 2 types of thick synth textures with an overdriven solid-body/humbucking tone.
    The GR55GK puts you in touch with a huge library of sounds, no editing required. The onboard lineup of ready-to-use presets (270, plus 297 user) takes the pain out of the process, with simple category buttons for finding sounds fast. Choose from hundreds of great presets for pop, rock, and beyond.

    Roland always has the best products and this review with this guitarist was a great choice! Excellent sounds, excellent player. I loved that nylon strings with piano sound! I will buy one of these guitar synths when I have the cash! Long live Roland, I've been buying your products for 30 years and will continue to do so!

    I’ve had one for years. If you don’t have it, get it. It is amazing. I used it in bands and at church. I have my "User" patches connected to a Behringer FCB1010 Midi Controller to change patches on the fly. It gives you 10 banks of 10 patches so you have a chance to set up 100 patches to retrieve instantly by pressing a couple of foot switches.

    • @Robynloveshred
      @Robynloveshred 4 роки тому

      What can you do with a MIDI controller?

    • @Cigarsnguitars
      @Cigarsnguitars 4 роки тому

      John Mills It’s a pedal board that allows you to change patches. When you play live and need multiple patches you can assign a patch to a pedal, and when you need that patch you can call it up on the fly without having to scroll up/down through all of the patches.

    • @evhfan5150
      @evhfan5150 4 роки тому

      How is the tracking? Is there a delay between when you pick the string and then hear the sound?

    • @Cigarsnguitars
      @Cigarsnguitars 3 роки тому

      @@evhfan5150 I apologize for the delay in responding to your question, which is the only delay there is. I have had no latency issues with it at all. I bought a Godin Freeway guitar specifically to setup and use with the GR-55. The guitar plays incredible just as a regular electric guitar but it houses the electronics, ghost saddles and 13 pin connector, all built in to the construction of the guitar. I have the GK3 pickup (what you see mounted on the guitar in the demo) and have built it into a ‘universal’ mount for Tune-o-matic style bridges. I have it mounted on my 1980 BCRico Mockingbird now but can move it to my Agile LP.

    Great Demo. I totally love my GR-55. I have mine sending the guitar signal to a Line 6 Spider IV 30w 1x12 combo & the GR-55 L&R Jacks adapted into the MP3 player input of the Line 6 which gives me absolutely fantastic sound in what must be the smallest & most efficient/powerful rig budget-conscious money can buy. GR-55 + Combo = 2 keyboards, 2 guitar tones with almost no footprint on stage. The GR-55 comes thru the combo via MP3 jack CRYSTAL clean & Booming strong & mixes great

    I use a Godin as well. A lot of times what I thought was a latency problem turned out to be the character of the instrument I selected. Some seem to take a little longer to develop than others. We are used to guitars responding instantly to our touch. Pads, organs etc are not immediate.

    WOW! Great demo. My only question is this. I've wanted to get an all in one effect unit because I hate pedal chains(I only use a boosted crybaby now) and haven't been able to find one that doesn't have that modeling sound. I'm running two red stripe bandits using the on board gain and clean channels which I think sounds as good as any tube amp....can it shed that digital horrible modeling sound and give good hi gain bite?

    Bought this 5 ? Years ago and never really used it (there is also a connection issue on the gr-55 midi in port...). Because it’s really too heavy ! Now I use mainly midi guitar that tracks even better than gk3. Also mounted a gk3 for bass. Great techno (expensive) but too heavy....
    Just my 2 euros...
