The GEM GM-X Sound Module is the ideal tool for
creating music and professional songs in the field of multimedia
production and computer music applications. Thanks to the USB
connection along with the software editor it's like having a quality
plug-in sound module always on line, without slowing down the computer
CPU. In addition, the compact and rackmountable shape makes GM-X the
perfect instrument for anyone requiring a complete set of sounds to be
accessed via MIDI while playing live.
The exclusive DRAKE
(DSP-Risc Advanced Keyboard Engine) processor in the GM-X Module in
combination with 64MB of samples provides 247 stunning, high definition
sounds with 64 notes max polyphony and 16 multi-timbral parts. GM-X
features two main configurations:
GM Mode - the default mode
in which every MIDI channel matches a sound that can be recalled via
MIDI program/bank changes enabling the GM-X to always be ready to
perform any GM/GM2 compatible song.
Performance Mode - which
allows the storage and recall of presets (combinations of sounds,
effects and their control parameters) ideally suited to professional
live performance applications.
The user interface is extremely
easy to navigate with a minimum of front panel buttons to access
essential controls and functions. The rear panel features stereo audio
output, aux stereo input, MIDI in/thru connections along with a USB
port for a direct connection to the computer (Windows). The "X Series"
is accompanied by a custom PC-based editor that allows easy control,
simultaneous change and storage of the vast number of internal
parameters. The RAM and flash memories allow the "X Series" modules to
be fully updated via software just like all the other GEM instruments
powered by DRAKE.
