Hi all,
Anyone using GB with an old school keyboard like an Ensoniq ESQ-1 or a Yamaha DX-7?

I'm using a Roland JX-3P (circa 1982). it's the first Roland with midi!

I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

1983.
It was practically the first keyboard with MIDI at all - it was one of the two keyboards used to first demonstrate MIDI to the public at NAMM in 1983, the other being a Sequential Prophet 600.
Historic instrument, so to speak. 
(and really nice-sounding, too - but not nearly as fun without the PG-200 programmer)

I did briefly have GB hooked up to a 1957 Martin acoustic guitar (not mine unfortunately). Okay, so it wasn't a keyboard, but makes your ESQ-1 look like a spring chicken.

How did that work out for you? I'm thinking about doing something similar.

Worked fine. However, I don't have one of those pre-amp Monster cables and my 1/4" adapter is very unreliable, so I had issues initially getting a stable sound in. In the end, I ran the Martin through my Line 6 Pod first so I could keep the adapter still. I need to look at getting an M-Box or something to get more secure on the audio side.

The guy I bought the Roland from said it was 82, which I thought was cool cause that's the year I was born. Looks like I was lied to. Oh well, the thing still works sweet. Spheric you're right though; it sucks to create new sounds on it without the programmer.
