Roland VG-99/GK-3 Roland VG-99/GK-3 Overview: A Milestone in Guitar Modeling and Performance Technology The Roland VG-99/GK-3 guitar modeling synth/pickup system turns your guitar into a versatile synth instrument! The VG-99 has three powerful new processors at its core, plus expressive performance controls such as Ribbon Controller and D BEAM. The highly accurate GK-3 pickup sends individual signals to the VG-99 and is simple to install. Other highlights such as an onboard guitar-to-MIDI converter and on-screen editor let you take your 6-string capabilities to new heights with the Roland VG-99/GK-3 system. Roland VG-99/GK-3 Description: Wide range of COSM-modeled guitars and amplifiers Control switching between virtual guitars and/or amps by foot controllers, buttons/knobs, or your picking dynamics Easy alternate tunings Designed for easy control onstage Guitar-to-MIDI converter and other user-requested features Includes GK-3 pickup Roland VG-99/GK-3 Details: Multi Modeling The VG-99 contains an incredible range of COSM-modeled guitars and amplifiers including new electric, acoustic and bass guitar models, a new GR-300 synth wave, and much more. It even models two signal paths at once. Complete dual processing of guitar modeling on the VG-99 allows you to play two different guitar sounds simultaneously. For example, one virtual guitar could be a Telecaster in a vintage Tweed amp with full effects and the other a nylon-string guitar with just a hint of reverb. Dynamic Control Both modeled guitar and amp paths can be active at the same time, or they can be dynamically switched or blended. You can control the switching behavior between virtual guitars and/or amps by foot controllers, buttons/knobs on the unit, or according to your picking dynamics. Imagine, for example, playing softly for an acoustic-guitar sound, and transitioning to a full metal blast simply by picking more aggressively. Furthermore, each modeled guitar can be separately assigned to individual guitar-strings. For example, you could have a 12-string guitar on 1st to 4th string and Synth-bass for 5th and 6th. Alternate Tunings The VG-99 can produce custom tunings - anything the player desires on any virtual guitar. A virtual Les Paul, for example, could be tuned down four or five steps for a heavy sound, while a nylon string could be tuned as a 12-string, and also tuned down four or five steps at the same time. Open and drop tunings are also supported as well as user defined custom tunings and can be applied to any COSM guitar, so the player can switch instantly between tuning setups without physically switching guitars or having to manually retune. Guitar Performance in Higher Dimension With its new performance based design, the VG-99 can be placed within a player's easy reach on stage by using an optional PDS-10 stand. This new style setup allows various new performance possibilities such as D BEAM, Ribbon Controller and more. In combination with the versatile new foot controller FC-300, the VG-99 takes your guitar performance on stage to a whole new dimension.
