Roland GR-30
This G-Synth is the control center for my Orgy live rig. I've been using this synth since Orgy's first album Candyass. You can hear it on the songs: "Social Enemies", "Dissention", "Platinum", "Gender", "Blue Monday", "Pantomime" and "Revival" off Candyass. You can also hear the GR-30 on these songs off Vapor Transmission: "Vapor Transmission" (Intro), "The Odyssey", "Eyes-Radio-Lies", "Saving Faces" & "Where's Gerrold".
On the albums Vapor Transmission and Punk Statik Paranoia I started using the GR-30 more as a controller for other synth's namely a Roland JP-8080 and a Korg MS2000R which are in my live rack and can be seen on my tech page What is great about this G-Synth like the other Roland guitar synth's I have is that you can tune down to A# like we do in Orgy and it still tracks! Of course not as good as it would if I were tuned to A440 but in many cases I've been able to use the mistracking to my advantage...
