Got myself these 2 gadgets today:
A Roland GI-20 midi interface and a GK-3 pickup! Been playing with it for some hours and it's a seriously fun toy It's odd how entertaining it can be to play piano, strings, flutes, bagpipes and whatnot on the guitar I'll get a review up as soon as i figure out what all the buttons do and experiment some more This post has been edited by Trond Vold: Jun 28 2008, 02:50 AM -------------------- Guitars: Schecter Stiletto Classic, Jackson SLSMG, Ibanez RG-380 Japan, Gibson Les Paul Studio

Excellent - could be just the thing for laying down quick midi lines - easier than a keyboard perhaps

Wow, great stuff Trond. Can it record MIDI too? Seems like it can - I did a little research. I think the GI-20 is just a midi module, and the pickup talks midi to it, so in theory you could record the midi directly and play it back thorough a VSTi - which would be cool for laying down bass lines and such! Is that right Trond? -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Is that right Trond? Thats 100% correct. It works just like any other midi interface. You just select a Vst/vsti in your DAW, then assign the correct midi-interface to it and your set to record and play. -------------------- Guitars: Schecter Stiletto Classic, Jackson SLSMG, Ibanez RG-380 Japan, Gibson Les Paul Studio
