Just a little reminder to our new members. There is a extended instruction manual available called "How do I do that" published by Keynote Publications in the USA. For information and to purchase please go to: ( http://www.keynotepublications.com ). This manual contains over 85 pages of how to do just about anything on your KN6000/KN6500. Once at the site go to the free stuff page and dowload any one of the slide shows to play in you keyboard (KN6500/KN6000) about the extended manual, hard drives, accessories, Walt Tenay Keyboard Studios, and our latest Manhattan slide show. The extended manual is chuck full of info for the beginner and intermediate player. We have just completed our third printing of the extended manual and have shipped these instruction books as far as New Zealand.

The "How Do I Do That" extended manual could
have made the New York Best seller lists, book of the year had we only added these additional titles and info for the giging musician.

1. How do I tell my mother in law not
to visit so often?

2. How do I tell my hands to play better
music?

3. How can I see all those black notes
without changing my glasses.

4. How come the keyboard appears much
heavier after I am packing up from a gig?

5. How do you not play "misty" more than
once during the evening?

6. How do you tell people you're not playing
to loud, and there is something wrong with
their hearing?

7. How do you answers questions when your
playing a song and people want to have
a in depth conversation with you?

8. How do you play a song when the request
is -it goes something like this ---?

9. How do you pay a song when someone
stands along side of you to see
"How do you do that"?

10. How do you get the money for a new KN7000


And on a serious note. For the people who have purchased a HD-Tech Manager 6000, for their HDSX6, there will be a extended manual for this unit shorty.

Thanks Walt....

There's also a "Tips & tricks" book available here KN6000 Tips And Tricks in English too??? Not sure whether it is or not.

From the same place, you will also be able to get a HD-SX 6 Hard Drive for about £382 (still expensive, but cheaper than I've seen elsewhere) HD-SX 6 Hard Drive

Walt, your point 10 manual is interesting, but I guess that
one is very "simple", and only one page?

It would be nice Johnnie, to just walk in WH-Smiths and pick one up from the Eagle centre , The Hard Drive Doesn't look too bad though at £382.00 (Plus £12.00 P&P). It's £479 from elsewhere I believe.

Walt,
maybe I should be a little serious too?
You may as well mention that the book is a good tool for us
who still are KN5000 users too, because there is quite a lot
of points who are similiar regarding to how it's being done.

Is this book, 'Tips and Tricks'any better than alecs' 'How do you do that'?. By better, I mean does it give anything in addition to it. Alecs book is an excellent extension of the Kn manual. And just if any one is in doubt as to whether Walt can get to you, then you have no worries, just e mail him your phone number and he will do the rest and the book will be with you in a matter of days. I live very close to you Derby boys, just over the border in nottinghamshire and I got it without a hitch. I was born in Derbyshire so I can't be wrong.

Or maybe even Waterstones at the Audley Centre.
No I think perhaps Walts idea is the better option

Hi Walt, Interesting set of questions - May I suggest some answers ? (There may be more!)

1. Q.(How do I tell my mother in law not
to visit so often?)

A. Tell her the mice keep jumping into the Traps as she comes through the door and you just hate cruelty to animals.

2. Q.(How do I tell my hands to play better
music?

A. Tell them if they don't do better, you'll take up Drums.

3. Q.(How can I see all those black notes
without changing my glasses)

A. Just ignore them - the sharps are dangerous to the touch and the flats are just out of tune anyway.

4. Q.(How come the keyboard appears much
heavier after I am packing up from a gig?)

A. Try removing from the carrying case, all the bottles of booze, accumulated during the gig.

5. Q.(How do you not play "misty" more than
once during the evening)

A. There's no answer to this!

6. Q.(How do you tell people you're not playing too loud, and there is something wrong with their hearing)

A. Just shout back at them "Sorry! I can't hear you for this damned Keyboard!"

7. Q.(How do you answers questions when your
playing a song and people want to have an in depth conversation with you)

A. Say "Nicht Verstehen English"

8. Q.(How do you play a song when the request
is -it goes something like this ---)

A. Just smile, play "Misty" and swear that's what they were La-La-ing

9. Q.(How do you play a song when someone
stands along side of you to see
"How do you do that")

A. Just remind them that you don't stand watching them while they are 'performing'

10. Q.(How do you get the money for a new KN7000

A. Sell the Mother-in Law!
