It requires a compatible divided pickup (such as the GK-2 or GK-3) and a 13-pin cable.Key Features & Specifications:Sound Engine: Features the same L/A synthesis technology found in the legendary Roland D-Series keyboards, delivering rich, late-80s and early-90s digital textures, pads, and orchestral sounds.Patches: Comes with 128 preset tones and 64 user-programmable tones, plus support for optional PN-GR50-01 memory cards.Connectivity: Housed in a 19-inch rack unit with standard MIDI In/Out/Thru, a 13-pin GK input, mix outputs, and a headphone jack.Unlike standard effects pedals, the GR-50 analyzes the pitch, amplitude, and articulation of each string individually through the divided pickup. It translates this physical guitar playing into digital MIDI data, which then triggers the internal synthesizer voices. This allows you to blend your normal electric guitar tone with lush synth layers like pianos, strings, or brass.
