Great sound Hans!! I have a GR-33 and its a little slow on the piano lead,yours seems to be very responsive. Is there any thing you could tell me to get it as responsive as yours.

Thanks, John

Hi John, thanks so much for the kind words :) Well, right now I don't own the GR anymore, I hope to get some money to buy me the VG99 instead, but from my tests, the sounds that track best are the ones with flute or trompet like sound, piano and guitar sounds don't track that well with the GR33, that said , the guitar I used for the Washburn Wi68 also has something to do with the tracking, ebony fretboard is very good for use with this kind of synth sounds. Good luck and cheers ;) Hans

is really that you need two amps for connect gr-33 and effect pedals like boss, ehx, mxr etc, in one you effects and another the gr-33?

cheers man¡¡¡

Hi, On this set I used a GR33 for the synth and a VG88 for all the other sounds all connected to a small PA system. Today I tend to use everything on the same tube amp but for the GR33 I think it's best to use on a small PA system or keyboard amp. Cheers and thanks!

Thanks a lot Chris, I'm not 100% sure anymore, but I believe I used some kind of GR300 base and changed some parameters myself, I can post the patch (in sysex) here if you'd like. All the best, Hans
