Thanks Fran...I thought it did have a sequencer, but I wasn't quite sure(I suppose I could have looked up the specs).
What is surprising, at least to me anyway, is the
omission of a midi sequencer on the BK-5.
Were they that concerned with cutting costs?
It is a shame, because the BK-5 sounds far better than the Prelude, to my ears.

Beats me..if a keyboard is going to be my primary keyboard..it has to have an on board sequencer....My G1000, and G70...were/are my go to sequencers...I am one of the folks that prefer the on board sequencers over the PC stuff..
The BK sound source is the same sound engine as the G70 and E80 (so called, or referred to as the SC engine)..It is easy to determine the sound engine...If it has "scat" or good "choirs"..it is the SC engine...No comparison to me ...the Fantom engine(XV) sucks compared to the SC...
I think the Sonic Cell, Juno G, Juno Stage, Prelude sound engine is a hybrid of the XV and SC........the G , E and BK are far superior..but differences can also be the samples used in each instrument more than just the sound engine..as I have mentioned before..an example the G70/E80 sample sounds, compared to the E50/60...side by side tells all you need to know (hear)..
