  Hi, There are two options without a v-guitar power supply. 1. A simple PP3 dual 9V battery pack adapter with snap-on PP3 clips and protection diodes. 2. Dedicated dual boxed 9V PP3 battery unit, ON/OFF switch, 13-Pin socket and battery status LEDs. Two fully charged 9V batteries last about 7-8 hours. And yes they are availble with the cable. separate-strings.co.uk

  Hi I_ffoo, Do not see a problem with UK-Saudi Arabia shipping, need to check. Yes, you can play all the GR55 PCM sounds using a normal guitar input, BUT you can only input a single string guitar input or a mono input. The main attraction with the cable, is using a GR55 as a normal guitar effects unit.

  Hi Ferran, Thanks for your comment. I did not want to add too much detail to the GK Extreme preamp you description, without sending everyone to sleep. Here goes: 1. Six GK Feedback resistors set to 51k on each string op-amp. 47k might be more gentle and less of an overload risk. 2. Diecast case for GK Extreme housing. It shields the circuit from EMI and radio frequency noise. 3. Hi-end through-hole audio components, And opa1656 state-of-the-art op-amp. 4. Grounded GK3 sensor pickup lowers the noise-floor by 1dB. 5. Battery power supply for GK Extreme. Lowers the noise-floor by 2-3dB. All of those points 1-5 improves the noise-floor by about 5dB minimum, and the 47K/51K improves the noise-floor by around 7-10dB. The slightly bright GK Extreme audio is due to opa1656 op-amp, and something called 'High gain-bandwidth', which allows high-frequency audio transients to pass easily. All op-amps gave this factor, and can be heard on old op-amp designs from the 80s (dull sounding NE5532 op-amp). Finally, the apparent GK Extreme brightness is underlined by the much lower noise-floor. Finally, finally, a well screened GK 13-pin helps and ensures a maximum signal-to-noise. Thanks for the question. Bill

  I'm a tech and don't recommend using that EL Tape to backlight an R8. The LCD sits on a very sensative chip board that is highly sensative to magnetic noise which is why it's so heavily shielded from the rest of the unit. They still sell this tape on ebay and other places but they're all from china with very cheap under-built noisy inverters that will put a terrible high pitch sound in all your outputs. You can't filter out that type of noise the way this machine is built with a proprietary lcd panel. It's not hard at all to backlight an R8 for show but say goodbye to your sound quality. It's the reason why you won't see many video's with a backlit R8.

• 
  @BaxBreakoutBox2 жыл бұрын

  Hi GTR, If you have an RMC or Ghost hex pickup/preamp using an internal PP3 9V battery supply, you will generally NOT need an external power supply. If you are using a Roland GK3/3B/GK2A hex pickup/preamp, a dual +/- 7-9VDC power supply is needed. A simple dual battery power supply is available. Maybe no problem with Low A and E strings into a bass amp (you will have to combine them into a 2-1 1/4" adapter). String D, G, B & Top E might need a summing mixer into the guitar amp. Summing all inputs without a mixer buffer will most likely have a detrimental effect on the audio. You could use a stereo summing mixer and combine Bottom E & A into one channel, and the rest into the other - this is probably a better bet. Regards, Bill

  I would like to backlight my R8 MKII but yahoo group is no longer and do not see a Facebook Group. Do you have instructions you can email or post a link to?

  Hi John, Sorry to say, I do not have a link for instructions to the R8 MKII backlight upgrade. There was a lot of information at the yahoo group, but as you say this is no longer available. I have posted some of the backlight project at the Facebook Roland R8 group, and even rescued some of the information from the yahoo group. Do a search the Facebook R8 group, and you should find it. Apologies for not being much help. Bill

  Hi Roo m2, Yes, you can re-amp with a mini breakout cable, although a minimum GKP-1 breakout box makes things more convenient. Re-amping a v-synth like a GR-55 is essential, being such a deep piece of gear. Play a bit, adjust a bit is total madness and you end up with a poor v-guitar patch. separate-strings.co.uk
