Re: Midi arpeggiating with Quasimidi Quasar - advice needed

[Mark Sottilaro <sine@zerocrossing.net>]

If you're looking for a MIDI equipped guitar with MIDI clock synchable 
arppeggation, why not try the GR-33?  My GR-30 has a decent arppeggiator 
built in, and I bet the 33 has the same.  A bit of a bitch to program 
via the box itself, but there is a handy bit of shareware that allows 
programming via a Mac.  I'm sure PC versions exist too.

Oh, by the way, the sounds on the GR-30 are mostly unremarkable on their 
own, but a little processing (mmmm fuzzz) and they're pretty good.

Hope this helps.
