Hi Ryan, the ROM I will send is version 1.3 for the K5, or version 1.2 for the K5m depending of which synth you have. You can see the version on the boot

If the K5 came out in 87, and the K5000 came out in 97, shouldn t Kawai be releasing a K5000000 sometime soon? ;-) Jeff ... From: antdes45

Hi Antoine, I d love to update the ROM on my K5m (it s running OS 1 at present). What do you think it would cost? Kind regards, Rob.

Yes I got a dead key (a white key) working again on my K5 last month, using the article on Klaus s site. It stopped working altogether when I put it back the

Hi Nelson, what about the brightness? I see Digikey has a similar inverter that is more powerful. If you have some time, you might want to open up the keyboard

Hey my Backlight and Inverter still work great! (but a few of my keys are not so well, thank goodness for Midi.) I recently got a K5000s - both these boards

For editors, the best I have found is the K5 atari editor, so get a copy of Steem for your pc and download the K5 editor from our files section or from the

One more thing: if you are controlling a synth with an arpeggiator or sequencer from he K5, you may have a problem as the K5 sends more than just a note-off
