FEATURES

Your Optimus MD-1600 Electronic Key- board is a state-of-the-art musical instru- ment that offers you a vast array of sounds, with 2-way bass reflex speakers for stunning sound reproduction. You can choose from 200 different musical instruments or sound effects and 100 rhythms, as well as accompaniments and percussion sounds.

The MD-1600 also includes a MIDI fea- ture (Musical Instrument Digital Inter- face), which lets you connect it to other MIDI-equipped musical instruments or devices — even your personal comput- er! This versatile keyboard can provide hours of fun and is ideal for anyone who wants to make music, from the beginner to the experienced musician.

Note: The MD-1600 conforms to most, but not all, General MIDI specifications. Therefore, you might experience some incompatibility when using the MD-1600 with another General MIDI device. For more information, see “Using MIDI” on Page 41.

Your MD-1600’s features include:

73Full-Size Keys with Touch Re- sponse — the keyboard’s volume var- ies in response to the force of your touch, just like an acoustic piano or or- gan, so you can add emotion to your music.

Backlit Liquid Crystal Display — shows the notes and chords as you play them, along with the current tone, rhythm, and tempo. The built-in back-

light makes it easy to read the display even in darkness.

24-Note Polyphonic Sound — lets you play and hear up to 24 notes at the same time, so you can play or create al- most any type of music.

Memory — lets you set the MD-1600 to record up to 2 songs, 6 tracks, and 5,200 notes. The recording remains stored even while the keyboard is off.

Pitch Bender Wheel — lets you bend a note by altering its pitch to create realis- tic effects for reed instrument or guitar tones.

200Tones — let you set your MD-1600 to sound like anything from a harpsi- chord to a honky-tonk piano. You can even create your own tones with the custom tone synthesizer feature.

100Auto-Rhythms— provide a steady beat for many styles of music, from rhumba to rock.

Headphones/Output Jack — lets you connect (optional) headphones so you can play without disturbing others, or an external amplifier (neither supplied) so you can play for a crowd.

Assignable Jack — lets you connect a sustain pedal (not supplied) to the MD- 1600 so you can sustain or soften your keyboard’s sound, or start/stop an auto- rhythm.
