ROLAND VG-99 GK-3 Pickup/pastilla :: Roland Iberia

[PatrulVideos]

Hey dude!, i have some qestions for you!

Im now working on videogames music, and i wanted something that sounds like Trumpets, Saxo, Violins, Piano, etc etc... This would do that?

This pickup its neccesari have to be with the Roland Pedalboard, dont they?

And the last one, wich is the difference of the VG-88 and the VG-99, and how much costs, the Pedal with the Pickup GK-3?

Would a midi controller keyboard do the same things?

Sorry for all the questions! Thank you very much

Muchas gracias!!

What kind of pickups were those at the end of the video ? The ones the last guitarist played that were attached to the Strat ? They had two tiny bars going across the top and bottom and it kind of looked like a Single - Coil ?

[TheEternalLeader]

@TheEternalLeader They are on the cream colored strat throughout the video that the wavy/curly/whatever blond guy has.

@TheEternalLeader looks like Seymour Duncan SHR-1 Hot Rail pickups to me

[TheEternalLeader]

@cainmd69 Ah, Thank you.

[TheEternalLeader]

@cainmd69 Ah, Thank you.

Umm so if I buy the GK-3 and I just want to simply do some MIDI recording/tracking straight from my guitar to my interface, do I still need to buy the other "GK compatible devices"???

@IAmMichaelMyers

A MIDI cable is different from the GK Roland cable. The Roland GK-3 cable is a 13 pin cable made to work with Roland (and other ) Synth units. I'm not sure what your "interface" is. But if it isn't a 13 pin interface it won't plug directly in. If your interface is a MIDI interface you can come out of a Roland Synth with a MIDI signal into your interface but at that point you are needing the Roland Synth ( or some other synth).

@BIgRon2176 i dont understand. can you plug a guitar cable into this thing to run it to the instrument in of an audio interface?

[BIgRon2176]

@darkryu38

yes, this pickup has two jacks a 1/4" jack which just works straight through the pickup just as if you had plugged it directly into the guitar. The other input is the 13 pin output for the bar pickup that works the synth with the signal from each string.

You can use mount this pickup, plug a 1/4" jack into it and ignore the synth completely. Don't eve plug in the synth cord. Or plug it in and run the synth as well - and switch between and mix the two signals. Big Ron

I don't know about the VG-99. I have the GR-20 Synth. I was just referring to the GK-3 Pickup. You can also buy guitars with the function of the GK-3 pickup built into them. The Roland Ready Strats, Godin SA guitars etc. And you can buy the GraphTech Ghost system which is a more complex higher tech version of the GK-3 functions. Big Ron

Sweet hardware. Weird Hairdo's.

[SONGSTICKS]

Does anyone know whether or not the GK3 also works with a Roland GR30 please?

@SONGSTICKS

[blackmeinu]

@SONGSTICKS Yes, & it can also work with other products from other manufacturers like Axon, for an example.

[SONGSTICKS]

@blackmeinu

Excellent, thanks for that.

I've been watching on ebay for another GK2A to fit to another guitar and a few GK3's came up. the listings have ended now, but I know now that the GK3 is ok too.

Cheers for that.

[MathieuGPL]

so if i manage to connect this to my computer, will it be able to pull up a track view of all the notes I play (ex.: in a program like Reason)?

[ostrikrool]

it's work with Boss WP 20 G

[punapoppeli]

does the gk 3 have synth effects or du you need the syntheziser

[CarvedTop]

Thanks for an awesome video. I just got a GK-3 and a VGA-3 Amp and can't wait to set it up and post some videos of it.
