Here I give a quick (and quite amateurish -- I am not a good keyboard player by any means!) demonstration of my Casio PT-100 keyboard. It is ALL ORIGINAL and NOT modified or "circuit bent" in any way, unlike almost all the other Casio keyboards you'll find shown on YouTube! From the late '80, the PT-100 was one of the last and most advanced Casio keyboards to use exclusively multi-pulse squarewave sounds... *not* FM synthesis or digital samples! It also features Casio Chord with percussion accompaniment, which also makes some very nice retro-style synthesized electronic sounds, especially the "zizz" sound of the hi-hat cymbal. I just wish they made a bigger keyboard with the same electronics, because I really like its sounds (both keyboard voices and percussion / accomaniment), but especially with Casio Chord enabled, it doesn't give you very many keys to play the melody on. ps The snippet of melody I keep repeating is from Louise Tucker's "Dancing By Moonlight", which itself is based on some classical composer's melody, the identity of which is unknown to me.
