      Its not hard to perfect your feline skills. Just catch a few felines, line em up in a row. Pull each tail and see what note they generate. Re-arrange the cats so they form a perfect scale, and start playing. Bonus points if you can make em play automatically by feeding an arduino a midi sequence, triggering solenoids to pull the tails ;)

    that casio SA-9 is basically the EXACT keyboard i had when i was growing up in the 90s, down to the button press sound, so it's interesting to see that it's still being made (as of the posting of this video)!

    Sounds like Technobeat wasn't ending old notes to make room for new ones, so it was hitting its 7-note polyphony limit even after you let go of the keys, since it was waiting for the note to finish fading out.
    I have a nexxtech keyboard with 7-note polyphony and it will end old notes to make room for new ones, even if I am still holding the key down. Fairly interesting.

    I had one of those Casio Tone Banks when I was a kid (early 90s). It looked almost identical and sounded identical, I think the demo button played wake me up before you go-go, although I distinctively remember it having a headphone jack, which this one seems to lack.

    I have to admit, I really enjoyed this episode for a latecomer to the channel, but I was a tiny bit let down that I didn't get to see the insides of the last cheap 'junky keyboard', as well as anything successfully played on either of the last 2. I also understand though. I'm sure you spend enough time on producing these shows for us.
    I had bought myself a Yamaha YPG235 a few years ago and was determined to learn how to play it for the first few months I had it, but looking back now I wish I had aimed a little lower, like that Casio SA-9. I think I would have been a little bit less intimidated by it. I also wish I would have found this channel back then as well.

  • @justanotheryoutubechannel

    I had a toy keyboard back in the day, in the 2000’s. It was great! It had all the notes of a proper keyboard, all the notes a piano has at least, and had switches to let it synthesise numerous different instruments. I still own it, it runs off of AA batteries, and sounds really good to be honest. My favourite part about it is how it has red LCDs in all of the keys, which light up when the key is pressed and it comes with loads of songs which you can select. There’s a switch that toggles if you want it to play the song, or just give directions. If it’s set to play the song, then it plays the song and lights up the keys, but if it’s set to off then it just lights up the keys silently so you can play the song with it! It’s really cool in my opinion. It had loads of other features too like tone controls and metronomes and loads of other stuff.
    I had a lot of fun with it as a kid. Although I am terrible at playing, using the pre-recorded songs for practise and the song directions I was able to make some good songs. The keyboard also had proper beat/rhythm control that let you choose from many beats and rhythms and then customise them too, even meaning your own from scratch, and then you could choose the sound it’d use for the beat/rhythm, or you could make it silent and have the keys light up.. I also have some good memories of using the feature it had that let you record a song to replay later. It was brilliant fun to me as a child, and I expect I could break it out of the loft and use it as a proper keyboard. I remember my dad telling me at around that age that most toy keyboards are basically just normal keyboards, albeit somewhat simplified, and that mine was better than most in that aspect.
    I’ve also got to give it some props for having normal sized keys, and having the ability to play many keys at once and even record your voice to go along with the song. It was well worth the tiny price of about 30 early 2000’s pounds, if I remember rightly.
