Ketron SD9 - Professional Arranger Workstation Ketron SD9 is the flagship model from the SD series, combining the power of modern technology with intuitive operation. It is not just a keyboard, but a complete musical ecosystem for soloists, bands, and sound engineers. With 76 semi‑weighted keys with aftertouch and a 7‑inch touch screen, playing becomes more expressive, and control over tone is instantaneous. SD9 offers unprecedented integration of a sequencer, audio samplers, and advanced DSP effects, making it the ideal tool for creating top‑level music.

Product Features The main advantage of the SD9 model is its versatility and the richness of built‑in features. The device offers 128‑voice polyphony, ensuring that even the most complex arrangements play without truncation. The keyboard supports 4 velocity curves and a programmable touch response, adapting to the player’s style. The 7‑inch LCD color TFT screen with capacitive touch (800x480) allows real‑time visual parameter control. The device’s memory holds over 672 GM sounds and 1500 user voices, including unique V‑Tone banks. Additionally, the Live Guitars and Live Drums system provides authentic audio loops that respond to chords played on the keys.

Unlimited Creative Possibilities Choosing the Ketron SD9 gives you a tool that inspires experimentation. The new Style Modeling Library allows deeper accompaniment editing, using template libraries for bass, guitar, orchestra, and synthesizers.
