Story
The PG-200 was built by Roland to aid in the programming of the Roland JX-3P, MKS-30 and GR-700 guitar synth. The JX-3P, MKS-30 and GR-700 all share the same synthesizer engine, and have the same programming parameters.
The PG-200 is not necessary to program these synthesizers, but programming is much easier with the PG-200. Even with a deep knowledge of analog synthesis, using the PG-200 provides for many "happy accidents" that can provide some great sounds.
The PG-200 connects to the host synthesizer via a 6-pin DIN cable. These cables are easy to build if lost. They use a 6-pin DIN connector often used as a power plug. The pins are wired one-to-one, i.e. pin "1" to pin "1", etc.
