Is is possible? Has anyone made a decent patch or is it just beyond the units ability?  The basses, jazz guitar, sitar are great and the acoustic guitar is just fair. I really need a Nylon so I don't have to drag two guitar for gigs where I'm only doing one or two sounds (showcases). Please help. ???

I thought the nylon guitar sounds in the PCM synth section sound reasonably good, maybe try making a patch using the synth nylon as the base sound and mix in a bit of modeled guitar for the initial picking attack.

Whats wrong with using the COSM Nylon guitar ?


See owners manual page 32


Tweak it and Build your own patch around that.

the nylon guitar included in existing patches, is indeed, imo one of the weakest tones. i was more satisfied with it on my gr-33

but i haven't tweaked it yet

I haven't play too much with a lot of the acoustic tones, but one observation with the Preset patch's using acoustic or nylon guitar modeling, is the levels are too low on the modeled tone compared to other tones used in presets.

Thanks, luckily i am at the other end of the country, but it is a very sad time, especially when every media channel/service is covering events 24/7.
