The Sonogenic SHS-500 Keytar Instrument from Yamaha is an instrument for music lovers who want to participate in making music but are still learning how to play an instrument. The Keytar (key-board + gui-tar) gives you the freedom to dance, jump, and move around while you play. It is built with 30 different instrument voices from synthesizers to drums and is equipped with 37 expressive mini keys, pitch bend, modulation wheel, and an assignable knob.
Thanks to Jam Mode, the Sonogenic SHS-500RD keytar lets you play along with your favorite songs. Connect the instrument with the free Chord Tracker app and play along with songs stored on your smart device. No matter which keys you press, the notes automatically match the song. Don’t worry about hitting wrong notes, fingering technique, or even knowing the proper scales and chords.
