Introduction Overview of the K2661 1-1 Chapter 1 Intr oduction Thank you for purchasing a Kurzweil/Y oung Chang K2661 instrument. The K2661 is packed with great acoustic, electric, and synth sounds—combined with some of the most advanced synthesis features available, which you can use to cr eate almost any sound imaginable. The K2661 incorporates[...]

1-2 Introduction V AST Synthesis For sample memory , your K2661 has one SIMM (single, in-line memory module) installed in a socket that you can reach thr ough the access panel on the bottom of the instrument. If your K2661 does not already have the maximum of 128 megabytes of Sample RAM installed, you can install a larger SIMM using the instr uctio[...]
