Mark:

Have you tried the Roland V-Bass? I'm using a GK-2-equipped Chapman Stick 
(and an Eagle 6-string fretless bass I installed the GK-2B that came with 
the V-Bass as my backup instrument) to drive a Roland V-Bass. Since the 
V-Bass is related to the VG-8/88s, there's no MIDI conversion/tracking 
issues as there are with the GR-30/GR-33 family. If you haven't tried one, 
it might be worth your time to check out one.
