Want a les paul? just program it in, want P90's instead of humbuckers? program it in. The modelling section lets you model most amps, cabs, popular microphones & positions and damn near any guitar you might desire be it acoustic or electric, 6 string or 12 string, banjo, nylon strung, dobro, bass guitars.
Roland gr 33 patch editor full#
Yes you get two full effects processors that can be used in series or parallel, you can have one on the synth voices + another on the modelled guitar or original guitar sound, plus you still have global chorus, delay and reverb on top. The unit is more than just a guitar synth, think of it as 2 x GT 10 multi effects units + a VG99 modeller + 2 x new and improved versions of the GR 20 all in one box. The user patches are fully editable, you can even delete them and start your own patches from scratch. There is then the user section, this comprises of 297 patches, again organised into banks of 3 patches.
There are 270 preset patches organised into lead, rhythm and other sections, each of these is divided into banks with 3 patches per bank. Tracking is spot on, but remember you need to play cleanly on guitar synths, if you accidentally hit other strings or slightly bend your notes, they will sound.
Roland gr 33 patch editor drivers#
No software is bundled with the unit, yes I know thats tight, they could have at least put the USB drivers and librarian software on a disc and even thrown in Sonar LE, but they haven't, the drivers and librarian software are downloaded from the Roland site.
There is how ever a loop facility that will allow you to overlay several phrases onboard, though this is very different to full recording capability. The USB stick is designed for backing up the unit and for playing audio files, ie backing tracks, you cannot record to it, recording has to be done by either pluging the outputs into a multi track/digital multi track/studio desk or via USB to your DAW software on your computer. There is no flash card memory on the unit though it does accept USB sticks, check for the spec on the Roland site, There is also a third party GR-55 patch editor that works well, allowing you to program patches in real time from your PC, laptop or mac.
It also allows you to connect to the librarian software for managing patches, but be aware, the librarian is not drag & drop sadly, Roland really need to catch up with the rest of the world with their management software. USB out is handy and allows you to plug directly into your computer and use your DAW for recording.
