Thanks very much for your offer of assistance. I bought the WK-8000 for my basement rehearsal space. I was particularly interested in Casios of this vintage because of their drawbar organ tones, which suit the styles of music I'm playing. BTW, I'm not a keyboard player, just wanted to have something here just in case someone comes over. I think I got a reasonably good deal, $195 tax included with the particle board stand in good condition and a little sustain pedal (non-latching footswitch.) So whatever quirks it has are of little consequence. The first "undocumented feature I noticed was that, in drawbar organ mode, the highest five notes sound one octave lower than expected. Not a big deal because not too many players are going to play that high anyway. I tried a complete factory system reset which went fine but didn't cure the problem. So I'm guessing its a firmware bug – not sure. One thing that's a little more significant is that the piano voices play at a lower volume than the organ voices. Kind of annoying but easy enough to live with if I have to but would prefer to have the piano and organ voices play at equal volume. Lastly, for now anyway, is that the organ voices still exhibit very slight modulation effects even with the modulation wheel backed all the way off. So any insight or guidance you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I just bought a WK-8000 for my rehearsal room. I'm more of a visual learner and wanted to see if there were any online video tutorials to help me learn how to operate it. Thanks!
