Hi,
In these days of technology and new applications being developed at the blink of an eye, guitarists also are benefited in a big way. New guitars with excellent playability and tones are easily available in the market. Apart from guitars, hardware support in the form of effects processors, guitar synthesisers, stomp pedals etc are providing a wide world of opportunities to bring out the best from each and every guitarist. Roland GR 55 guitar synthesiser is a great beast providing the guitarist with options beyond imagination. You imagine any tone, tweak in the necessary adjustments in the synth and you get excellent results. Although the guitar synthesisers were present from long time back, they are more and more noticed in recent times because of various platforms, forums etc which helps in knowing the products in a very usable way. I am using the GR 55 from the time it hit the markets and till date continuing with the same. Now I am able to get different instrument tones like sitar, flute, sax, strings, vibes, etc with a near about perfection of the original instruments.
I am sharing today a small recording of a music I composed about 'God's own country' Kerala, The entire music is played through the GR 55 with the sitar, flute, strings etc patches which I created.
Hope all of you will enjoy the same and offer your feedback.
