Be mindful that there's only so much you can do with pitch extraction from a vibrating string - you still need to wait for the string to vibrate (usually go through two cycles) so you can get an accurate fix. A smart person explained all this to me many moons ago, and he'd calculated that for an open low E on a guitar you were looking at something between 20 - 30 ms, simply due to the period of the string's vibration. One of these days I'll find the article he was trying to refer me to. - Tony Luis Angulo <labalou2000@yahoo.com> wrote: >thanx Steve the GR-33 bass sounds are great specially >on tape but the tracking is still not 100%,i am having >one of my guitars refited with RMC pickups which is >suppose to improve this problem. >cheers >Luis > >--- burnett@pobox.com wrote: > >> On Wed, 1 Feb 2006, Luis Angulo wrote: >> >> > what i am really curious about is the tracking and >> > sound of the bass patches vs the GR--33,anyone? >> >> Luis: >> >> I have a Chapman Stick and a 6-string fretless bass, >> both with GK >> pickups, a GR-30, and a Roland V-Bass. >> >> The GR-30 and GR-33 take the signal from the GK >> pickup, convert to MIDI, >> then use that MIDI information to trigger the >> patches. >> >> The VG-8, VG-88, and V-Bass take the signal from the >> GK pickup and act as >> a large digital modeling stompbox.
