Taike,
A BIG WELCOME to the Synthzone Technics forum! Glad to hear that you are safe (and were not hurt) from the earthquake today in your Country of Taiwan. I live in California (San Francisco Bay Area) and we experienced a similar magnitude quake about 12 years ago and I'll l never forget how scary that felt.
Great to hear you own the KN5000. It's really a terrific board. I recently sold mine (sadly), but am planning to use the proceeds towards the upcoming new KN7000 later this year. In the meantime, I have to admit that I currently enjoy performing professionally on a Yamaha PSR2000 now. I realize that this is a Technics forum, but you guys really owe it to yourself to at least checkout the PSR2000, as it really is a terrific sounding arranger KB and believe it or not, costs less than $1,000 US dollars. In the meantime, please visit my website and check out my song demos which were all performed exclusively on the Technics KN5000.
Btw, if anyone here is interested, I'm offering my KN5000 instructional videos (VHS format) FOR SALE. Will accept best offer. Email me if interested. This includes 4 tapes:
Exploring the KN5000 Part1: 75 min.
Exploring the KN5000 Part2: 46 min.
Exploring the KN5000 Part2A: 180 min.
Exploring the KN5000 Part2B: 69 min.
