Re: Roland Synths (GR20, 33, and 55)
Well I really enjoyed programming my arpeggiator on the GR30, long  
past the point i tired of its skinny sound engine,  when I auditioned  
the GR33 and found out they dumbed down the arpeggiator to non  
programability I was bummed. What I liked about a programable arp is i  
could create note sequences the average fixed arpeggiator  wouldn't,   
for example: a pattern that  sequences on a 16 beat arp grid in the  
following string order 6152435261524352 .  or exploiting the GR30's  
polyphony  By creating an arp that uses diads on each beat like this  
example using  the following string pairs over the following 16 beat  
grid (65)(54)(43)(32)(21)(32)(43)(54)(65)(54)(43)(32)(21)(32)(43) 
(54),   at some point I may pull my GR30 out and dust it off , I don't  
even have a GK pickup currently mounted on a guitar right now but all  
this talk has me thinking i should put one back on, then again I have  
felt very liberated in not using it for the last several years
