casio wk 1630 help


Recommended Posts

Hi, new to keyboards.  I have a wk 1630 and am trying to get info on how to record/use sequencer.  I have no experience on

how to do this.  I have access to the manual but I find it difficult to understand.  even the terminology is unfamiliar to me.

Is there any simple step by step tutorials out there either written or video?   -any help would be appreciated.

 

thanks,

Dennis

Hello Dennis,

I liked the early sequencers a lot, especially the pattern sequencer. I found them much easier to use than the recent ones. But may be this comes from what you learned first.

I had the WK-1800, as I remember the difference to the 1630 was the disk drive. Was it?

There is an old video on YouTube explaining pattern sequencing on a CTK 731 step by step.

This guy played very well on his old Casio. The sequencer is the same and many sounds are the same as on your WK 1630. So you can learn a lot from this video.

From today's perspective a disadvantage appears to me that the sequencers do not save MIDI files. The file format is proprietary and there is no chance for editing the recorded music on a computer. If you want that external editing you need to record everything from the beginning on the computer. Than there is no need for the internal sequencer any more.

Cheers

Kostas
