No problem using the MIDI out from say a GR I did it with a GR09 but, I had to change one setting that filtered down some of the expression and velocity messages sent from the GR module. I can't recall what the setting was called but, it appeared in the manual somewhere. -----Original Message----- From: Edwin Hurwitz [mailto:edwin@indra.com] Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 2:07 PM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: RE: Guitar MIDI pickups Is there a problem with using the MIDI out on the Roland floor unit? Or, you could do what Bob Weir did: get a Casio body and put a Modulus Graphite neck on it! He had a bunch of these in the 90s. He even had a way to do it all wireless.
