Technics
--------------------------------------------

The Good:

1. Great Styles

2. Outstanding Organ Sounds.

3. The best vocal voices I've heard to date.

4. Real Audio SD Card System... Imagine playing your keyboard along side Frank Sinatra, and then saving that performance on your keyboard!

-------------------------------------------

The Bad:

1. The default save from recording a song
is a "Technics File", rather than the universal "Standard Midi File". Therefore, if you don't perform a lengthly conversion, you can't play your sequence on anything other than a compatible Technics keyboard.

2. Speaking of sharing, the default Technics File Is not backward compatible. Example: A KN-5000 could not play songs or styles that were made on a KN-6000.

------------------------------------------

and The Ugly:

1.The music stand on the KN-7000 seems like it's a block away.

2. The vocal harmonizer, or rather the lack of.

3. The sudden demise of Technics left owners up a creek.
