whats up...wondering if anybody knows if the ctk-6000 has any kind of looping feature. Say i wanted to play a measure, loop that measure, and play another track while its looping like you can do with the metronome, while recording. any help would be great thanks

Not really !  The CTK-6000/WK-6500 has a REPEAT feature that works with the sequencer transport control that supposedly allows you to set a starting bar and an ending bar in any phrase or song and then just repeat those bars over and over in a loop.  The only problem is, from the end of one loop to the start of the next loop, the keyboard inserts a four click count-in that I don't think anyone has figured out how to turn off.  Turning off the global count-in feature does not work, as that is tied to the recording function.  So, that makes the REPEAT feature pretty much useless for the looping that you and a lot of others would like to do.  The other end of the problem is that the CTK/WK-6XXX's single sequencer is a strict linear affair - no looping.  I say this because if you are asking this as the how-to question of a current owner, then I am sorry to have to give you this news, but if this is a "pre-buy" question, then you might want to consider the CTK/WK-7XXX's, as they both have a linear and a pattern (looping) sequencer.

 

Good luck !

It has been quite a while since I have addressed this issue, so I welcome anyone who has figured out how to turn the REPEAT feature into a useable looping feature to chime in hear and share your knowledge with us.  I have made dozens of searches through the PDF version of the manual with the FIND feature and various combinations of words trying to find a way to shut off that accursed "click-in", but have yet to come up with a solution.
