Wow! I have the digital additive predecessor, the Kawai K5, and the 5000 sounds like a whole other beast! Especially with the fat filter section! Thanks for showing off a very uncommon synth!
Deliciously digital. A lot of people think this is an under appreciated classic. I almost purchased one years ago but opted for the Ensoniq Fizmo, which was a bit more evolved user interface,. Kawaii instruments were a great value, I played a K1 for years, the poor man's DX7 back in the day.
Oh, that's beautiful! So glad you've got one of these, James. I'm now kinda itching for the rack-mounted version as Santa didn't bring me any new space for keyboards.
I had one of these 15 years ago when they sold for about $400-500. Now they sell for double. Great synth.

I have a K5 too but found a K5000S so I’m considering buying it.
This synth is a pad monster! The lead sounds are pretty sick too!

thanks for this...it shows these forgotten gems can still hold their own
Sounds really good. I don't think I ever listened to a Kawai synth before.
One of my favorite synths
Wonderful, thanks for uploading.
These are wonderful for those lush dreamy pads
Creaturz ! Love that Patch :)

Def makes some interesting sounds and unique.
had mine for ever love it shame the memory is so stingy for patch saving
Delay is your own pedal I assume, right? Not built in?
All effects are the K5000's
😮
Fattest digital synth ever.
