Professional Quality Tone Generator
The tone generator features 747 high-quality Voices and 22 drum kits, with full General MIDI compatibility — including Yamaha's new XG format. It provides full 16-part multi-timbral capacity and 32-note polyphony for playback of even the most sophisticated song data. There is total of 64 types of digital effects in three independent sections and a convenient INPUT jack that lets you connect and mix an external audio source with the Voices of the CBX-K1XG.

Comprehensive MIDI Control Functions
The CBX-K1XG provides a wealth of MIDI controls that allow you to send virtually any MIDI message directly from the keyboard. Plus, the Assignable Wheel gives you expressive control over a wide variety of sound and effect parameters in real time. And with the built-in host computer interface, you can hook up to your computer without the need of special MIDI interface.

Perfect for All Applications
Connect the CBX-K1XG to a computer, and you've got music making power - connect to a laptop computer, and you've got a complete and portable music production system. It is ideal for larger MIDI studios as well, since it provides exceptional MIDI control and flexibility to your existing system.

"Very useful."

Sound: As some have not understood, this is not meant to be used as a performance keyboard. This is a portable MIDI controller, and this it's what it's meant for. Once you plug it in to your preferred audio interface, the sound is amazing. Those who know how to manipulate the XG sounds know what I mean. Sometimes it seems to have some glitches with certain softwares and MIDI, but not hard to fix. And as some said, the reverb is NOT on at full volume everytime. Mine never was, at least. Feature: It could have more features, for sure. But everything it has works. Because of its portability, it is limited of course. If you want 5 octaves for example and need it badly and thinks it's annoying to use the switches to change the octaves, get a bigger keyboard, this is not for you. Ease of Use: It's a bit hard to use it just with the knobs and sliders. But once it's connected to a computer, it works fine. Some functions are too complicated to be activated, like manual patch changes and octaves, but this is probably due to the small size of the product - it has to use odd key combinations to perform some tasks as it doesn't have specific keys for doing that job like changing patches or moving through octaves. Quality: Very well built. Value: If you need more features, there are more expensive models. And the more the time passes by, the more common these things will be and they will eventually get much cheaper. Manufacturer Support: Not very good. I didn't have serious issues with it, but at least in the site there aren't many information or support or tips other than a download of the manual. The Wow Factor: It's not the best model of controller in the market, but it's very very good. The XG sounds, the size, everything caught my attention. And the reliability of the brand too. Yamaha has been making keyboards since a long time, they know what they're doing. Overall: I don't plan to replace it at all unless something as portable as this one and with better functions appears for a good price.

Style of Music: Rock

"I wanted a very small portable keyboard to work out ideas and as a midi-input device for my laptop when on the road. It works n"

Overall: Not glamorous, but a nice workhorse. I would never think of using it for performance, but as a small portable tool for working out ideas when you don't have a piano, or for portable midi entry into finale or a sequencer or something, I really like it. yeah, it's outdated. yeah it doesn't have USB, but the sounds are fine for what they are, and you get lots of them, and I love having built in speakers and the audio input. If you're working on Finale, it's great to have so you don't have to always go into "speedy entry" just to hear what you're playing.

Style of Music: jazz tinged musics.
