SP2 Introduction
Keyboard and Controllers
The SP2 has a fully‐weighted 88 key piano action. The array of physical controllers include pitch
wheel, modulation wheel and 4 knobs on the front panel as well as jacks for continuous and
switch pedal on the rear panel. Because all of them are fully programmable, the SP2 can be not
only a performance keyboard, but also a MIDI controller in a studio. You can use the SP2 as a
sound module receiving MIDI data from a computer based sequencer or external MIDI device,
too.
Effects
To perfect the ROM sounds, the SP2 provides over 64 multiple effects and 64 reverbs. These
effects can be applied to both setups and programs and the wet/dry mix can be controlled in
real time very easily. You can also program the internal multi‐effect and reverbs for even more
control in performance and recording.
Options
Your SP2 can use various optional devices. Ask your Kurzweil dealer about the following
options.
Pedal
The SP2 has two jacks for optional pedals on the rear panel. One is for a switch pedal ( for
functions like sustain or program change ) and the other is for a continuous control pedal ( for
functions like volume/expression control ).
The compatible pedals from Kurzweil are;
FS‐1 / Standard box‐shaped switch pedal
KP‐1 / Single piano‐style switch pedal
CC‐1 / Continuous pedal
