After so many years, I'm still inexperienced with midi...
I have a Drum-App on my iPad and i want to control it via midi. I have a working interface, synths I can control.

But what do I have to play, when the Drum-App wants "C1" or "C#1" to start an action? Which "C" is it on which string?

I think a normal C on the fifth string is a C2. This site confirms it:

To play lower notes use an octave down tuning on the GR-55.

Playing drums on a GR-55 is tricky anyway. Probably best to create a user tuning. If you can trigger from higher notes on the guitar, the results will be better.
