Roland KR-55 Digital Keyboard Factory Demo Songs

"I recently bought this keyboard for $30 on Craigslist (an xmas gift for my nephew, who just started piano lessons). Prior to making the deal, I looked around the net for some info, and didn't find much, so maybe this will help you decide if you want to buy one of these or not. These are all four factory demo songs on the unit. Note that it doesn't have a sequencer onboard, but if you use it with a sequencer, you can generate music like this in real-time (7 parts multitimbral, 30 voices of polyphony).

This one's a bit beat up- a couple buttons are broken and an octave's worth of black keys are dead at the upper end. But for $30 I figured I couldn't go too wrong. I was hoping it had reasonably piano-like action, but it doesn't- these are normal synth-style keys. Still, it's got onboard speakers, and it sounds good for a 1991 keyboard. I also found the manual freely downloadable on the net."
