Re: Roland GK cable noise issue

Sure, I totally agree with that. I would never send the magnetic
pickups through the GK shebang since it degrades the fidelity so much.
Only the synth string trigger data to drive synths are sent through
that cable here. What's happening here is that when the cable moves
synths get triggered just by data generated inside the cable. If you
sit absolutely still it is silent but playing in a standing up
position is impossible. I have all GR-55 settings correctly set up so
it can't be that (using four different global settings each trimmed
for a particular instrument's unique scale length and GK mic placement
related bridge position for every string). So it has to be the cable,
doesn't it?
