Manual

OUTLINE

OF

GR-700

The

Roland

GR

Guitar

Synthesizer

series

all

consist

of

synthesizer

sections

and

special

guitars

called

Guitar

Controllers.

The

GR-700

is

the

Synthesizer

The

following

are

the

main

features

of

the

GR-700.

*

The

GR-700

is

a

fully

programmable,

six

voice

synthesizer

with

the

memory

capacity

that

retains

up

to

64

different

tone

colors.

And

any

patch

program

in

memory

can

be

recalled

just

by

pressing

the

pedal

switches.

*

Using

the

Memory

Cartridge

(M-16C)

will

expand

the

memory

capacity

by

another

64

patches.

*

Tone

color

editing

can

be

more

easily

done

by

using

the

optional

programmer

PG-200,

*

The

GR-700

allows

you

to

select

which

of

the

strings

to

take

on

each

synthesizer

effect.

comply

with

the

limits

for

a

Class

B

computing

device,

pursuant

to

Subpart

J,

of

Part

15,

of

FCC

rules.

Operation

with

non-certified

or

non-

verified

equipment

is

likely

to

result

in

interference

to

radio

and

TV

reception.”

The

equipment

described

in

this

manual

generates

and

uses

radio-frequency

energy.

If

it

is

not

installed

and

used

properly,

that

is,

in

strict

accordance

with

our

instructions,

it

may

cause

interference

with

radio

and

television

reception.

This

equipment

has

been

tested

and

found

to

com-

ply

with

the

limits

for

a

Class

B

computing

device

in

accordance

with

the

specifications

in

Subpart

J,

of

Part

15,

of

FCC

Rules.

These

rules

are

designed

to

provide

reasonable

protection

against

such

an

inter-

ference

in

a

residential

installation.

However,

there

is

no

guarantee

that

the

interference

will

not

occur

in

a

particular

installation.

If

this

equipment

does

cause

interference

to

radio

or

televi-

sion

reception,

which

can

be

determined

by

turning

the

equipment

on

and

off,

the

user

is

encouraged

to

try

to

correct

the

interference

by

the

following

measure:

eDisconnect

other

devices

and

their

input/output

cables

one

at

a

time.

If

the

interference

stops,

it

is

caused

by

either

the

other

device

or

its

I/O

cable.

These

devices

usually

require

Roland

designated

shielded

you

can

obtain

the

proper

shielded

cable

from

your

dealer.

For

non

voltage

in

your

country

meets

that,

e

Please

do

not

use

the

system).

e

This

unit

might

not

work

properly

if

turned

on

immediately

after

turned

off.

If

this

happens,

simply

turn

it

off

and

turn

it

on

again

a

few

seconds

later.

e

Before

setting

up

the

GR-700

with

an

external

amplifier

or

the

Guitar

Controller,

turn

both

of

them

off.

ə

This

unit

might

get

hot

while

operating,

but

there

is

no

need

to

worry

about

it.

If

your

eauipment

does

cause

interference

to

radio

or

television

reception,

you

can

try

to

correct

the

interference

by

using

one

or

more

of

the

following

measures!

eTurn

the

TV

or

radio

antenna

until

the

interfer-

ence

stops.

eMove

the

equipment

to

one

side

or

the

other

of

the

TV

or

radio.

e

Move

the

equipment

farther

away

from

the

TV

or

radio.

ePlug

the

equipment

into

an

outlet

that

is

on

a

dif-

ferent

circuit

than

the

TV

or

radio.

(That

is,

make

certain

the

eauipment

and

the

radio

or

television

set

are

on

circuits

controlled

by

different

circuit

breakers

or

fuses.)

eConsider

installing

a

rooftop

television

antenna

with

coaxial

cable

lead-in

between

the

antenna

and

TV.

If

necessary,

you

should

consult

your

dealer

or

an

experienced

radio/television

technician

for

addi-

tional

suggestions.

PROBLEMS

CAUSED

BY

YOUR

IMPROPER

PLAYING

MANNER

The

GR-700

digitally

processes

the

vibration

of

the

strings

producing

digital

signal

that

controls

each

section

of

the

synthesizer.

This

is

in

other

words,

even

the

string

vibration

inaudible

in

usual

guitar

performance

is

bound

to

be

processed.

a.

Sound

Delay

The

GR-700

reads

the

waveform

of

the

string

vibra-

tion

then

detects

the

pitch

by

its

computer.

The

lower

tone

(slower

vibration)

needs

more

time

for

pitch

detection,

resulting

in

sound

delay.

The

open

6th

string

(E)

requires

at

least

25

ms

(0.025

seconds.)

The

sound

delay

is

also

caused

by

a

certain

playing

manner,

because

the

GR-700

is

designed

not

to

output

sound

until

the

string

vibration

has

become

stable,

to

obtain

accurate

pitch.

b.

Unstable

Pitch

If

you

have

played

a

long

tone

with

high

fret,

the

created

string

vibration

will

be

extremely

feeble.

Therefore,

pitch

detection

is

impossible,

resulting

in

unstable

pitch.

The

solution

is

playing

the

guitar

in

the

low

position.

c.

Sound

cannot

be

muted

lf

you

have

played

tremolo,

or

repeated

an

open

chord

or

muteless

stroke

with

the

5th

or

6th

string,

the

created

sound

may

not

be

muted.

Therefore,

you

may

be

annoyed

by

unexpected

reaction

of

the

guitar

controller

when

playing

it.

The

following

are

possible

symptoms

and

how

to

resolve

them.

d.

Irrelevant

sound

is

heard

The

GR-700

processes

even

the

string

vibration

irrelevant

for

deciding

pitch.

Therefore,

you

need

a

special

care

for

picking.

e.

No

sound

is

heard

When

the

vibrating

time

of

the

string

is

short

or

the

pitch

is

ambiguous,

or

you

have

not

picked

or

touched

the

string

hard

enough,

pitch

detection

is

difficult.

Watch

that

your

picking

is

hard

enough.

*

Harmonics

playing

Avoid

playing

in

harmonics

manner,

if

possible.

The

problems

are

often

caused

by

feeble

string

vibration

in

harmonics

manner.
