This is the Hing Hon EK-001, a tiny musical keyboard from the ’90s that looks like a toy, but has a very interesting sounding squarewave tone generator, making it sound very much like the sound chip in a Commodore 64 or Atari 8-bit computer. More info here:

My favorite sound on it is the “horn” sound, the last one shown in the video — the intermodulation distortion between the two voices is really thick and massive sounding for such a small keyboard. The video I made was originally much longer, including me playing around instead of just running through the demo song, but my video capture card screwed it up. I’ll have to record another video of it.

Shows how to use MIDI in Mixcraft 5 and how to get rid of latency and delays from when you press a key to when you hear the sound. Also shows how to use the new built in Musical Typing Keyboard (MTK). Always use ASIO or WaveRT over WAVE. WAVE is the worst. Use WaveRT or ASIO which you can find in the Preferences under “Sound Device”.

A late ’80s Casio keyboard with a nifty gimmick: digital sampling through a built-in microphone (or optional external mike or line-in), allowing you to capture sounds and play them as a voice on the keyboard. Its own instrument voices are digitally sampled as well, giving a more realistic but also more cheesy sound than my PT-100, but it has the same kitschy video-game-like percussion effects.
