INTRODUCTION
The Ei.KA MK tfttbb is a master control keyboard specifically designed to control up Jp T2 t omparibli*
units ny means of I he MIDI data transmission system
ihese unis an Include expanders, keyboard synthesiser^ sequencers, rhythm unite, petfalboardsand
J ny spiral effecls units such as reverberation, etc. In ibis way a complete MIDI environment can Iv- sui
up. canlmiled and played from I lie single keyboard of the MK 8B/55.
