[unmanoide]

can you explain your setup? what do i need to do the same thing with logic ....

gk3? gr-30?

@unmanoide I'm uploading a new series of videos explaining what's going on, they should be uploaded within a few hours. Feel free to watch them and drill me on what I failed to talk about, then I'll post video responses.

Can you trigger sampled guitar sounds...like those cool beatles guitars in East West's Fabfour?

How well would they track...would they capture all of the slides, bends and vibratos?

How does bends, slides and vibratos track on regular synth patches?

[handen]

@novanine9 It would be hard, if not impossible, to play sampled guitar notes and have them sound like an actual guitar in Ableton/Logic, but maybe not on a VG99. If you're crafty though you'd probably be able to mimic it fairly well, you might need a few other MIDI controllers like a wah foot-pedal that transmits treadle information from 0-127, and map it to an ADSR envelope filter or pitch-shift parameter for slides/bends, and a trem VST for vibrato... All it comes down to is being crafty. :P

why the fuck would you buy the reverse v. its so fucking ugly.

@gardenofskeetn

you suck ass. come back when you've got something positive to say.

[razrX]

@TonyMc1337 i have to agree on yhat 1

[maxMastermeister]

@merdenoms74 Probably because controller is sending pitch bend for h/o, but for this to work pitch bend range setup for guitar and Logic synth need to be same. Chances are your GR33 sends a pitch bend range RPN, but Logic ignores this (unfortunately). A "proper synth" e.g. any Korg this would just work.

[fragileagain]

so you're not using it with the roland g20? i mean, its possible to use it with vst plugins such as kontakt?

[merdenoms74]

I've been trying to use Logic synths with a midi guitar, but hammer-ons don't seem to track. Instead, the previous note holds on. The GR-33 I'm running through doesn't have any problem with tracking hammer-ons when I'm using its internal sounds, so I figure it must be Logic. Do you have any advice?

[SoerenLorenson]

that is the ugliest guitar i've ever seen

[MichaelAngeloSanders]

I like the backwards body dude

[StopTheMoti0n]

loving the irony of the two highest rated comments.. mmm bipolar YouTubers..

[NotTheFaceBro]

[flashpadxxx]

Wow...Now this is what i call u fucking ugly guitar!! I feel sorry for you!
