Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:8219514 | MPN: SK2100 |
| Brand: Casio | UPC: n/a |
This is a very special, rare keyboard synthesizer and sampler. This hails from an era when Casio and Yamaha were competing to make sampling keyboard accessible to the masses, and have since been used by Fatboy Slim, Beck, Autechre, Portishead, Bloodhound Gang, Nine Inch Nails, Incubus, Blur, San Holo and many more.
The SK2100 is especially rare as it features stereo output, a full 49 key full sized keyboard, and an increased sampling time and sampling rate. It ...can record up to 1.62 seconds of sound at 10.113 kHz.
It has both a full sampling chip as well as a full synth chip.
I've carefully tested every function of this keyboard, (and critically, the sampling function!), and everything is working perfectly. It has no broken parts, and is missing no button caps or sliders.
You will need to supply your own DC 9V charger.
The keybed feel is surprisingly great as well.
"Imagine the famed Casio SK-1 on steroids combined with the rhythm sequencer of the HT-700 and you’ll get an idea of what this synth is.
Released in 1987, a year after the SK-1, the SK-2100 has full sized keys, stereo speakers and 4 sample slots that will even save when the unit is powered off (as long as batteries are installed or it’s plugged in)."
