The Key interactive musical controller includes a sophisticated on-board synthesizer that functions by 'strumming' while manipulating switches on a 'neck' type arm.
The Key is a polyphonic instrument consisting of six strummer vanes on the body, and a three octave keyboard on the neck. The strummer vanes can be played like the strings on a guitar. The Key has a built in speaker, headphone jack, and external audio jacks.
Features include
- 130 internal presets
- Midi in and out with General Midi sound capabilities
- SongPac ROM cartridges of popular songs
- battery operation or AC adaptor (included)
- three octave keyboard neck
- and the ability to split the strum vanes into various parts (bass, chordal, lead).
The Key was designed to be connected to VHS, Laserdisc, and SongPacs when compatible material is used.
