Yes - arrived on Monday

Soon as I tried it I thought....

Nice,the big guys in Germany have there date moved to halfway august and even later,end august,Thoman and Musicstore.And two different prices,1790,00 thoman and 1950 musicstore,euro's.Is there still a prelaunch Tonewheeldude?Let's hope also on the SD9

Probably same sound engine, just some more sounds...

To bad they are removing some of the player and the Dj features, as this is what sets the SD7 apart from other keyboards..

But then, i am allways wanting as many features inisde a box as i can...


looking forward to your demos..

The Player is still there - but you dont have access to dual panel controls and sliders. Just a single rotary control.

Although the DJ section is not there (at least I have not seen it) you have Jukebox. This shows you your song library, adding X-fade allows you to play one track, then whilst its playing select another and the instrument cross fades for you (instead of manually doing it with sliders). This works realy well so I dont realy think its a backward step for an arranger module.

The plus size is the module is so small - the smallest arranger Ketron have ever made.

Although the SD40 presale is over - we are still guaranteeing against price drops. So if we are able to lower the price further during the month, buyers will get a refund of the difference. It already happened as we dropped the price from £1549 to £1459 inline with other internet sellers.

Started uploading them. The website player has broken but clicking the download button works.

Will post in the main section when they are all up but for now:

Thank you, there are some precious little jewels among them audio clips...

(Also tried the audya audio demo's but could not get them to work on my Ipad)

i had not noticed the audya demos were broken too - will sort thmout tomorrow

Also here arrived in Holland,SD40/80 in store now.

I am heading to Sweden next week. Do any members know of a music stock in stockhom that carries Ketron ?

I dont think there is a distributor in Sweden - could try the asking Norway distributor though as they are kind of on the doorstep:
