G50 Guitar MIDI Converter

The Yamaha G50 is a high-performance Guitar MIDI Converter designed to work in conjunction with the Yamaha G1D Divided Pickup Unit installed on

an electric or steel-string acoustic guitar. The G50 offers unprecedented MIDI guitar synthesizer performance with exceptionally fast response and a range of advanced features that bring the true creative potential of MIDI control to guitar players for the first time. Naturally, the VL70-m is an ideal tone generator for use with a MIDI guitar system based on the G50.

Since the G50 produces MIDI output, the standard MIDI connection rules that apply to a keyboard or any other MIDI controller also apply when connecting the G50 to the VL70-m (page 16).
