I purchased a Ketron SD5 from George Kaye.

I recorded two songs to demonstrate how the styles sound and also to show the riff feature. The first song uses the organ_club style. I used the jazz organ and rodes piano. After the rodes solo, there are twelve bars of a riff progression. I just hit the riff button while holding a C chord and the riff feature generated a blues progression in the key of C. The second song is spanish eyes and uses the beguine style.

I am not a professional musician and recorded the songs quickly with no editing or mixing. I am posting them so you can hear the keyboard, not my mediocre playing.

Ooops! I stand corrected. I thought it was a Korg you played.

The Ketron organs are great too

Jim......NICE JOB!!!

Hope to hear more SD5 demos soon...
great live sound.btw how are the speakers?

Thanx

The first piece is fantastic. It sounds like a real band.

Very realistic accordion.

It is a terrific piece of hardware.

Regards and Happy new year

Hi Jim

Very impressive sounds. I does have a live band feel. That blues was nice.

Spanish Eyes used a typical live band background. I would have liked to have heard a change in the bass part though as it got a little old. Maybe another variation with a slight bass change would have done it.

But, all in all, pretty darn good.

Best

Jim:

Love the blues thing, Spanish sounds good too. Very nice organs for sure. Live band sound and the riff feature are very nice.

Good luck with it.
