Majek Skateboards Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Everybody helped me finding the needle in the haystack Prophet synth tone at the beginning of the attached video on the CT-X700, but where is the similar sound in the equally vast WK-245? There are just so many tones and it’s harder finding anything without a tonewheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majek Skateboards Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Anyway I am going to work with the great prophet 5 sound on my CT-X which has more depth in the AiX sound chip. The older AHL sound chip is still pretty usable in the WK and CTK series and live there’s very little difference. The closest WK tone I have found so far is a brass with synth bass, #270, and the above video calls the Prophet 5 patch “soft brass”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harpon Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Does your Casio have tone editing like my wk-6600. Seems like you could find some similar tone and modify it to something similar to what's on this song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I really don’t know. i am so used to modifying tones in the DAW when record so I stopped menu diving in keyboard. There could be a way to modify a sound setting. If I get any mid level DAW at $99 and up, then I could then use any USB Casio and call up a Prophet 5 sound and change the settings in an old school analog way via oscillators and filters in software and literally get the exact sound.

Chandler Holloway Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 If you can find a clean sample of this tone, you could always just sample it into the WK-245 through the microphone input port. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majek Skateboards Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 I think I can find a good 1/8” mic for that. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler Holloway Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 You can only sample into the 1/4" mono mic port on the WK-245, the stereo 1/8" audio in jack won't work. Shouldn't be a problem because the Prophet 5 outputs in mono anyway, so it's not like you'll be losing anything by not having a stereo sample. The mic port is expecting a mic level source and your sample will likely be from a line level input (the headphone jack on your computer or mobile device, most likely), so make sure to use the mic volume knob to turn down the gain so the sound isn't distorted or clipping. What are you planning to play the sample from? That will determine the type of cables or adapters you'll need to connect it to your WK-245's mic input. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
