New Sounds
New PCM Samples on the Technics KN7000 give you breath-taking new sounds such as the new Baritone Sax Soloist, Brush Kit and amazing Boys Vocal. Theres a brand new accordian resiter, Live Jazz Kit 2, Folk Guitar and an incredible JazzOrgan soloist . There are well over 1000 sounds on the KN7000 and with a Wave Rom 33% bigger than the Technics KN6500 the sound quality has to be heard to be believed
New Organ Samples and Organ Tabs
New Organ sounds include majestical classical presets, great tone wheel and rotary speaker samples and a choice of 3 new organ tabs. We were lucky enough to preview these sounds and we must say - `they are absolutely fantastic.
New Speaker System
The Technics KN7000 keyboard features a brand new speaker design, which utilises a rear facing bass port delivering awesome bass power. The newly positioned tweeters give a degree of separation and sound projection that is superb.
Video Out
Having a kareoke ? , plug your telly into the back and the KN7000 screen is projected onto your TV screen.
Digital Signal Proccesing
You can apply enhanced DSP effects separately to Right1, Right2, Left, and APC parts, as-well as global effects like chorus and reverb. The Technics KN7000 is equipped with both a global sound equaliser and a seperate equalisation function for each part, you can create studio like mixes with excellent sound quality.
Linking to a computer - Made Easy
The new Technics KN7000 digital piano features a USB port, so you can link to a computer without having to reboot. The program provided will allow you to creat midi files or even audio files that you can send to your freinds via email or even create your own cds. The included program that lets you do this, is simple. Its not like the cubase that allows you to knit spagetti but appears complicated, it just does what you want it to do simply.
SD Technology
It is about time that Technics brought out a fast medium for storing loads of songs registrations & rhythms, well as they say - "if a jobs worth doing, its worth doing well" . The storage medium is a tiny memory card , the cost ( you get one free ) is massively cheaper than the hard drives that have been supplied in the past for Technics Keyboards. The speed - theres nothing to touch it. How useful is it ? , there are several sites on the internet that will allow you to acces 100s of rhythms for Free. You can save audio files and pictures on the disc, link the audio files to your sequencer and the KN7000 will automatically set the keyboard to the correct tempo. Its Huge what it can do, whats more important, is that it will be useful to you.
