General
The Roland BK-5 is a remarkably elaborate and user-friendly keyboard for one-man bands and amateur musicians. This backing keyboard features a wide range of accompanying instruments, solo sounds and pre-programmed rhythms and audio tracks. It is also possible to play along to MP3 files, which you can open directly from a USB stick or a hard drive and play via the built-in speakers. You can use these external devices to store your own creations as audio files as well.
The user-friendly BK-5
If you have ever felt inhibited by the complicated controls of more elaborate keyboards, the user-friendly BK-5 is a great instrument for you. All the important controls have a clear, large design and are practically placed. The well-organised display offers you all the information you require. The keyboard offers a pleasant range of 5 octaves and is fitted with connectors that enable you to connect a sustain and an expression pedal.
Extensive possibilities
The BK5 is equipped with a wide, versatile range of features. First of all, this backing keyboard offers a large variety of sounds and backing tracks in many different styles. By means of effects such as reverb, chorus and the equalizer you can add the necessary flavour to the various instruments.
There's more..
The BK-5 is equipped with a video output, which enables you to display the song lyrics of MP3 files, among other things, on a TV or projection screen by means of a standard video cable. The MIDI software on your computer can be controlled by means of the second USB connector of the keyboard, or via the classic MIDI connectors. In short, this highly complete yet accessible backing keyboard is ideal if you already have a bit of musical experience, but makes a great starter model as well. Thanks to its versatile functionality, it is also a great asset for one-man bands that mean business. Daily playing pleasure is guaranteed!
