I have one of these. I like it especially running my Oberhiem Matrix 1000 tone module through it.
However, I'm having problems getting any sounds out of it. What could be wrong? Is it worht the money to spend to get it repaired?
I am also looking for a copy of the owners manual so if any of you are willing to photocopy and send it to me, I would appreciate it.
Please e-mail me at sirced99@aol.co OR sirced99@yahoomail.com with your details and shipping requirements.
I used to have a KX-5 keytar but I sold it a few years ago. I like the expression controls on the handle and the fact that such a cheap keyboard was equiped with MIDI.
The most useful voices I've been able to do anything with are: 00-Synth, 10-Elec. Piano, 12-Vibraphone, 24-Woood bass, 32-Horn, and 40-Flute. Having pitch bend, vibrato, Portamento, and Sustain readily available at the left hand is great! Transposing and tuning buttons are useful for bass sounds.
Not a bad deal overall... as has been said already... it looks cool. But use it with a tone module for the best results
