Here we are in 2022 and I think this is STILL amazing. I am not a techy guy, so I have no idea if this kind of thing is available on Garageband, but still... AMAZING !!!!!

Hearing that DX7 bass at 1:20 makes me want to put one of these on a bass of mine. I just wish I could have a plate made to stick the pickup on, and then be able to use the screw holes from the bridge cover, rather than drill new holes on my '74 Precision. The pickguard on mine is a mess anyway, I'll make another one to be able to have the jack on there instead of more drilling.

Super , the very close Yamaha DX7 sound at 1:20(to 1:23) is a GR20 internal preset ? or the GR20 is connected to an external synth or rack ??

This video inspired me to get these units. After updating the unit to accept bass and troubleshooting with the pickup, sensitivity, and play feel i am finding that the gr-20 or the gk3b is having trouble tracking accurately. If I use a pick it does not pick up well at all for quick picking. Any input / wisdon would be amazing, thanks!

Guess that's not correct: GK3B has an output for 13 pin cable, not MIDI or USB. The GR-20 has a midi out that could be connected to another MIDI device or computer with MIDI connection

How are you getting low latency with this setup?! It was my understanding that bass doesn't track well on the lower strings unless you're playing in the upper register. I have a GK-3B PUP on one of my basses, and the only way it's useable is having the bass strung up with piccolo strings.
@gamesforone4105

In my experience, the GK-3B doesn't track well on lower strings. It is difficult to set both the action and the string height above the GK pickup optimally for every position on the neck. If I set the string height too low, I get all sorts of multiple triggering when the string is hit hard as the string slaps the GK pickup. I don't really recommend the GK-3B. I think a piezo pickup built-in to the bridge has to be better?? Or check out the FretTraX system.

Hello Friend! In the installation on my Bass the same adjustment sensitivity only picks up from the middle of the arm to the Bridge. Does she have the Bass mode? I have read and reread the manual and found nothing. I thank the attention.

Any comments on how I can get faster/better analog to midi conversion and much less latency problems. Is there settings on each patch that will help or do I need to make a setting adjustment on the systems tab? Thanks
@lawrencegenereux8567
@lawrencegenereux8567 7 жыл бұрын
John Kam Latency is a fact of life with low frequency analog to MIDI conversion. No setting is going to change that. Sorry. It's why you don't see players using these units on the lower strings.

Thanks Lawrence--at least I know there are not some adjustments on the GR55 that will address latency in a big way--I'll have to listen to Pascal Mulot again with the GR55--especially when he is using MIDI patches--and notice where on the neck he is ---when playing 16th notes--with no severe latency. I use a few procedures like fading in a MIDI patch with foot pedal--to be on right beat--just using MIDi for accents--versus trying to do a riff or complete groove

Hello there, hope u can give me some advise. I bought the GK-3B from a friend (never opened) and attached it to a bass gtr and I still have my GR Gtr Synth (GR-20) same as your demo but I cannot get any sound unless I play high on the bass neck. Does the GK3B pickup has to be near the bridge or can it be between the pickups as it is now (easy to change as I have not screwed it in as yet) - any advise would be appreciated. Cheers
@gamesforone4105
@gamesforone4105 6 жыл бұрын
You have to make sure the clearance between the string and the pickup is no more than about 1 mm. If the string is too high, it won't trigger. If the string is too low, then it can slap the pickup and double- and triple-trigger. It is really a difficult balancing act especially if you have to adjust the string height for fret noise. Also, I found the GK-3B is just horrible with the GR-55. I tried all the settings of the GR-55 and could not get decent tracking at any position on the neck.
