10K-DB Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Was looking @ my GC catalog today,,and have been thinking of a Roland GTR synth for yrs,,for added textures to recordings{strings/brass/piano/B-3 organ tones ect} and was wondering if anybody has used the GR-55 Roland recently,and what they thought of the unit? It lists for 800$ US,,But my local GC doesnt have one in house. Thanks for any feedback. http://www.guitarcenter.com/Roland-GR-55-Guitar-Synthesizer-106510936-i1762346.gc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Thanks for any feedback. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. That is, the keyboardist and the guitar player, respectively. For that kind of money, it makes sense that it doubles as an audio interface, and they threw in a looper. I thought it might be a bit limited, but apparently it's got quite a bank of presets. I only use presets on my Motif XS7; it's got a bank of acoustic guitars, and another bank of electrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
