WE DESIGN THE FUTURE
Whether you love or loathe technology, you'll find the GW-7 to
be simple, straightforward, and inviting to use. No extensive
knowledge of synthesis or sequencing is required to use this
intuitive instrument. It's the perfect first-time workstation for
standard pop, jazz, and world-music styles, but its sound quality
and styles are rich and expressive enough to attract professionals
as well.
Connect the GW-7 to a computer or USB-equipped external
device with one simple USB cable, and transfer data back and
forth quickly and easily. Keep your GW-7 well stocked with
fresh songs and Styles by loading new Styles and Standard MIDI
Files. Save your compositions and arrangements via USB.
The GW-7 is made to be played. And not just on its keyboard,
this workstation offers an invisible, front-panel D Beam (wave
your hands over the beam to color your sound), plus a pitch-
bend/modulation lever, and a pair of control knobs. Performers
will appreciate the GW-7's large backlit LCD, especially on dark
stages and dimly lit studio environments.
Ethnic instruments are plentiful in the GW-7. Many instruments
have been newly sampled, and boast exceptional sound quality.
Call up these expressive sounds and arrangements – programmed
by top musicians – and instantly spice up your music!
