Amstrad Fidelity CKX 100 Keyboard
This really is a very nice sounding musical keyboard… can also be used as a MIDI controller.
The keyboard is fully functional and all the ‘voices’ and features work perfectly although there is a slight discolouration of the keys.
The battery compartment is spotlessly clean, as though it’s never been run on batteries, but if you want to use batteries then it uses 6 – C size or power supply.Original power supply is included.
Full features are:
49 midsize keys2 built-in speakers (sound bright and fairly bassless, stereo)main voice polyphony 8 notes (only 3 with accompaniment, 1 in trio mode)10 semi- OBS preset sounds {elec piano, synth 1, guitar, flute, bells | brass, synth 2, harpso, organ, strings}28 preset rhythms {r & b, hi-tec, pop, swing 1, dixie, samba, march 1 | rock 1, disco, funk, swing 2, hoedown, salsa, march 2 | rock 2, reggae 1, hip-hop, bounce, country, bossa, waltz 1 | boogie, reggae 2, heavy metal, ballad, barock, pop-cha, waltz 2} (selected in a sequence by 7 group + 1 select button)volume & separate rhythm accomp volume slidervibrato & sustain buttontrio mode (“auto harmony” button)single finger accompaniment (manual chord mode with rhythm off)”playright” mode (switches keyboard to pentatonic scales selected by the current single finger chord)tempo +/- buttons (21 steps)rhythm fill-in buttonkeyboard drum kit mode only during demos {whistle, hand clap, dog, cowbell, bell} (each 3 pitches)many orange, green & yellow LEDsmain voice sound is based on 2 layered static digital waveforms with independent simple envelope; with some low tones mild sample aliasing noise gets audible.
