No this isn't true. Even the old GR-700 had about 30 ms, and modern
converters get hardly below 20 ms. See

This is pretty easy. All Roland GK compatible systems have six audio
signals on their outputs, the conversion to MIDI is done in an external
device, so just replace the interface with 6 preamps and a power supply,
and you're done.

One remark: The famous GR-300, used by Pat Metheney, is no
MIDI-converter, but works with the audio signals, similar to smeck.
