Yamaha Portasound Voice Bank PSS-270

I managed to connect my old Yamaha Portasound Voice Bank PSS-270 Keyboard to the charger of the old firewall system so I can play with it. Its old mini-keyboard with 100 different sounds and couple options for automatic beats on the background.

I used to play with it since I was 4 years old and I've dropped it many times. As a child I used to use it with flashlight batteries. This bad boy takes 6 old flashlight batteries to run for over half a month but since I did not have batteries in my hand I borrowed old power cable from  my dad's study room.

 I connected to my laptop's mic port to be able to listen the music myself with out alarming the whole house while playing along with old school anime themes. I think I still almost remember how to play anime themes. I did promise a week back to someone that I would give it a try and try to record stuff to youtube. I still think I might wanna keep practicing.

I did let one of my friends, Rekti to listen while I played and since he was still alive to talk about Ginga Densetsu Noah rumours with me over video chat I think I did at least okay. I mean I did not kill him with my horrible playing. It is a good sign. Now I think I could go get myself some chicken burritos and then maybe train playing with the keyboard some more and then maybe play some video games. Yes I haven't been playing with this thing in a while and since its so much smaller than the regular piano or even the regular syntethisator it takes some getting to use to it.
The keyboard is baby sitzed and is small as 1M measuring sticks that I saw last time at the first grade of school.
Here is Youtube review that I found about the keyboard:

















Like you can see its really tiny. But this bad boy is really durable. I've dropped mine from the table direcly to the cold stone floor multiple times and it still works.

Only down side is while using the normal microphone audio jack to capture the audio the audio can sound bit like its too loud and broken.  I take it I used to play it really loud as a kid from its own speakers.

But ya. Now its time for me for the burritos and then I will go back to training.
