INTRODUCTION 9
WELCOMETOTHE K5000S
The K5000S is an Advanced Additive Synthesizer that combines realtime perfor-
mance features and unique synthesis capabilities into a single unit.
ADVANCEDADDITIVETONE GENERATOR
The K5000 series updates the famous K5 synthesizer tone generator and its
unique additive harmonic synthesis approach. The Advanced Additive Tone
Generator contains 32 source generators, which depending on how they are
used, can yield up to 32 voice polyphony.
PCM samples can also be mixed with additive sources. As few as one or as many as
six sources can be used to make a single sound. For example, a PCM wave of a
piano hammer can be superimposed with the sound of the piano string created by
additive harmonics.
128 BAND FORMANT FILTER
A new addition to the Advanced Additive tone generator is the 128 Band Formant
Filter, which can used as a Parametric EQ or several other configurations. The
Formant Filter is completely controllable by envelopes or LFOs.
MACRO CONTROL
Unique to the K5000S model are the macro controls for major sound parameters,
available on the front panel for instant access. In addition, four user controls are
programmable for each patch.
PROGRAMMABLEARPEGGIATOR
The K5000S Programmable Arpeggiator, features a wide range of control, ideal for
use in Tekno and other modern musical styles.
DIGITAL EFFECTS SYSTEM
The K5000S contains an advanced digital effects processor (DSP), which allows four
individual effects of chorus, delay, distortion, etc., in addition to reverb and a
graphic equalizer.
When playing a single sound, individual sources can be routed to individual effects;
when playing multiple sounds in Multi mode, individual sounds can be routed to
individual effects.

If you have lost your system data, use the following procedure to reload the system
data from the included SYSTEM DISK.
1. Insert the SYSTEM DISK into the disk drive.
2. Press the F2 button beside the LCD.
3. Turn the power on while holding down the F2 button. The installation will
begin.
4. It will take about 8 minutes for the installation. You are now ready to use
the K5000S.
NOTE:
* If you install this SYSTEM disk, the entire memory will be reset to factory preset
setting and your own personalized data you created will be lost. You may not be
able to back up the internal memory. So, we recommend that you save your
important data on a floppy disk.
* It is not possible to copy this STSTEM DISK. Retain the SYSTEM DISK with proper
care.
* The contents of the keyboard’s internal memory may be lost if you turn off the
power while installing system data.
Do not turn off the power while installing system data.
If you lost system data, take the following procedure using the included SYSTEM
DISK and load system data.

CONNECTIONS
Naturally, the first thing you ought to do with your K5000S is plug it in!
POWER Using the cable provided, connect the POWER jack to an AC outlet.
AUDIO There are two pairs of audio output jacks on the back, plus the PHONES jack on the
front (in front of the Pitch Bend wheel). This gives you a few choices, depending on
what you’re connecting to:
SOLO PLAY
Just plug your headphones into the PHONES jack on the front and go at it. There’s
plenty of power for phones. Use the MAIN volume slider to control the volume.
INSTRUMENTAMPLIFIER
If you are plugging into an amp, connect the MAIN L/MONO output jack on the
rear panel to your amplifier. All sounds will be mixed to this single cable.
STEREO SYSTEM
To connect to a music system or amplified speakers, use the two MAIN outputs (L &
R) to get stereo. You’ll need adapters or adapting cable to convert the 1/4” Phone
jacks on the K5000S to the RCA pin jacks on your stereo. Make sure to connect the
K5000S to a LINE, AUX, or TAPE input on your stereo.
MIXING CONSOLE
If you’ve got more than two inputs available, by all means connect the two MAIN
outputs and the two INDIVidual outputs to your mixer. In this way, you can route
certain sounds (piano, strings) through the reverb unit to the Main Outputs; and
send others (bass drum, bass guitar) directly to the INDIVidual outputs without
reverb, or for special studio processing.
When connections are made to the INDIVidual output jacks, the INDIVidual
volume slider on the front panel becomes active. You can adjust each pair of
outputs independently.
PEDALS
HOLD
Connect a Hold pedal to the HOLD jack on the rear panel. Use a Momentary On
footswitch, like the Kawai model F-1. This acts like a piano-style damper pedal,
sustaining after releasing keys.
EXPRESSION
You can connect a Volume pedal (Kawai model V-20X) to the EXPression jack on
the rear panel.

TUTORIAL 15
PROGRAMMABLE FOOTSWITCHES
You can connect additional momentary footswitches, like the Kawai model F-1, to
the Footswitch jacks as well. These can be programmed to do a range of things,
such as change octave or turn the arpeggiator on and off.

MIDI There is a full set of MIDI ports on the rear panel of the K5000S: IN, OUT, and THRU
jacks. You don’t need to connect any of them, but if you want to talk to your other
MIDI gear, here’s how to connect them:
EXTERNAL KEYBOARD OR DRUM CONTROLLER
If you want to play the K5000S from another keyboard, MIDI drum or Guitar
controller, connect it to the MIDI IN jack.
You will need to set the K5000S’s Unit Channel to match the input jack and the MIDI
channel the device transmits on. Press SYSTEM, then MIDI (F5), then Unit CH (L2).
SEQUENCER OR COMPUTER
If you want to use the K5000S with a sequencer or computer, you will need two
cables. Connect the MIDI OUT of the K5000S to the MIDI IN of the computer, and
the MIDI OUT of the computer to the MIDI IN of the K5000S
You will need to adjust the K5000S’s Channels (in System of Multi) to match the se-
quencer. Depending on your configuration, you may also want to turn Local Control
OFF – press SYSTEM, then MIDI (F5), then Local (L1).
ADDITIONAL SOUND MODULES
To use the K5000S to control other sound modules, connect a cable from the
K5000S’s MIDI OUT jack to the MIDI IN jack of the other device. If you have more
than one device, you can loop from the MIDI THRU of the first device to the MIDI
IN of the second.
