Keyboard/Polyphony
61 regular-sized touch sensitive keys and 128-note polyphony.
Super Articulation
Introducing a completely fine level of sonic realism and musical expressiveness.
The remarkably authentic Voices feature the unique performance characteristics
of each instrument, the expressive finger-slides on the guitar, or the breathy,
legato phrasing of a saxophone. Never before have such string, wind and brass
instruments, played live with a keyboard, sounded so convincing or so real!
MegaVoice Technology
It features multiple samples across the keyboard with sophisticated velocity
switching - for incredibly authentic instrument sounds. It contains not only the
basic samples of the instrument but also the performance techniques used with
it. On a guitar for instance, players will hear open and mute string sounds,
dead notes, hammering effects, slide effects, harmonics and a wide range of
strum and body noises. In technical terms, Mega Voice duplicates an instrument's
behavior. In sonic terms, this gives the keyboard stunningly realistic sounds.
USB Audio Recorder
You can record your performance as audio data to a USB storage device. Connect a
microphone or guitar to the instrument and enjoy recording a guitar and keyboard
performance together, or record your singing along with song playback.
Vocal Harmony
The amazing Vocal Harmony feature automatically produces backup vocal harmonies
for lead vocals that you sing into a microphone. You can even change the gender
of the harmony voices - for example, letting you add female backup to your own
male voice (or vice versa).
Organ Flutes
This special function not only gives you a full set of rich and luscious organ
sounds, it also lets you create your own original organ voices, just as on a
traditional organ, by increasing and decreasing the flute footages, and adding
percussive sounds.
Music Finder
When you want to play in a certain genre of music but don't know which settings
to choose, what can you do? Music Finder has the answer. It offers an extensive
range of music styles with pre-programmed voices and effects setups. Search for
suitable styles. It instantly call up the best-suited voices, tempo and
accompaniment style to match the song name or music style you wish to play.

Internet, without a computer, letting you delve into thousands of MIDI songs on

would let you save or load the registered settings and user songs created on the
instrument, as well as read data from the connected device.
