Key Features
Product Ref: 286977
Designed from the ground up with live performers in mind, every design aspect of the Yamaha CK61 will take your performances to the next level. At the core of the CK61 is the powerful FSB (Future System) keybed providing semi-weighted keys delivering tactile feel and fluid playability. It comes equipped with a huge, genre-defying sound library including pianos, electric pianos, organs and much more. It even incorporates sounds from previous CP/YC series instruments, giving you a tonal arsenal that allows you to tap into the depths of your imagination.
What sets the CK61 apart from other keyboards in its price range is the comprehensive sound design options on offer. With independent control sections for Filter, EG and effect blocks you can tweak and sculpt your sound as you see fit, even in real time whilst you perform. Providing advanced control for the Organ Voice control are the built-in drawbars, allowing you to control the sound like a real-life vintage organ. Vintage-style rotary controls are included for cutoff, attack, resonance, depth, rate, and more for the various sections. You can even control the tonality of your effects using the Depth and Rate rotary controls.
Each dedicated section has clearly labelled buttons including quick access 'category' buttons allowing you to seamlessly switch between sound categories in an instant. This allows you to quickly find the sound you're looking for. The keyboard also features one-button portamento/unison control for quick and easy operation.
Layering and splitting sounds can take your performances to the next level, by mixing multiple sounds at once or layering them to create new and exciting sounds. Using the vast sound sets on offer you can layer/split sounds in the three different zones on offer, allowing you to create organic and expressive sounds. You can even edit each sound individually using the onboard effects as well as the master effects section. Add texture and colour to your sound, or push things to the extreme using the distortion and compressor/EQ effects. There is even a three-band EQ with dedicated sliders allowing you to shape your sound even further as well as a dedicated 'Reverb' rotary control.
Highly portable, the CK61 features a lightweight design with built-in speakers so you can play wherever you go. The Yamaha CK61 also offers multiple powering options for added convenience. You can power the unit by using an AC adaptor (not included) or via 6 x AA batteries.
One of the most unique features of the CK61 is the inclusion of Bluetooth Audio connectivity, allowing you to pair your Bluetooth-enabled device to the keyboard for audio playback. This allows you to play along with your favourite tunes or incorporate backing tracks. The CK61 also features USB compatibility, allowing you to connect the keyboard to your computer or a smartphone.
