Most of you seem to have Red SHS10`s Mine`s silver grey, never seen another (although I bet there`s about as much chance of it being collectable a Purple Jen SX1000.. (;-). beware not to trigger the Auto accompaniment when playing live over MIDI..

It's a nice MIDI controller, the red colour is ugly, so I painted it metallic bleu, now he is cool for live use.
Don't buy him for the sounds, they suck, I've connected him to my Korg X5DR module, and that's kinday kinkey to see a man playing on a little keyboard the sound of an enourmous cathedral... :))

Sorry , i meant 37 keys not 27!!. BTW the mod button does send MIDI (to the kenton at least)

Best described as a KX5 for the car-boot sale brigade.. Stuff it with HP7 batteries and plug it into a Minimoog via a kenton box and use it live, WOW how can a child`s toy sound that great is the usual comment. I sold my KX5 and actually kept this as it is such an absurd thing to take on stage, make sure you keep the volume down and don`t press the Demo button by accident an adjacent mic may pick up the horrible sound the thing really makes. The keys are the same length as on the KX5 but half the width, no aftertouch and only 27 keys as opposed to 44 but for �12 who cares, the pitch bend wheel is easier to use than the KX ribbon and the thing has a Digital readout for patches rather than the KX`s latching switches (if you`re using a programmable synth that is). shame they didn`t add a breath control socket (;-)..

yeah, i got one of these for free from a friend...cheesey little machine, I wouldn't pay more than $50 for it, even if used just as a controller for other stuff. The mini keys get annoying, but the onboard effects are kinda nice. Only real use for it (other than as a controller, just to look silly), at least for me, is to put it through an effects processor and distort the shit out of it (i put it through a reverb on my digitech studio quad v2 and then use a guitar distortion pedal), then it sounds pretty damn sweet. Even the onboard drum loops (cheesey as BALLS - although I had used them just for that reason) can sound phat as hell when put through effects. My view? Worth the money I paid for it :P seriously, though, if you can get it cheap, grab it, especially if yer into just plain weird shit,
