The Best Keyboard!

By Michael G.

This is the best Korg Pa5X 61-Key Professional Arranger Keyboard!

Enhance your musical creativity and performance with the Pa5X 61-Key Professional Arranger Keyboard, the latest flagship model in KORG's esteemed Professional Arranger series. This revolutionary arranger keyboard has been meticulously redesigned, boasting a cutting-edge sound engine and a streamlined, color-driven user interface. The Pa5X delivers a uniquely rich and immersive sonic experience, inspiring you to create and perform like never before.

The Pa5X is brimming with thousands of inspiring sounds and hundreds of fresh styles, all readily accessible through an intuitive workflow. Its new front panel features an assignable Pad Matrix and Mixer section, multi-colored LED buttons, and a large, tilt-able touchscreen, putting you in complete control of your music-making journey.

Designed with a blend of elegance and durability, the Pa5X sports a robust aluminum body and genuine wooden side-panels, exuding a luxurious appearance. The 61-key version features lighter touch semi-weighted keys, all of which include aftertouch control for added expressivity, providing an authentic feel and full control of expression for any playing situation.

At the heart of the Pa5X is a large 8" tiltable touch screen that displays a completely redesigned GUI (graphical user interface), making all the sounds and features of the Pa5X easily accessible to both home and studio musicians as well as live performers. The color-driven interface allows for easy navigation, adding a vibrant touch to your music.

The Pa5X introduces the EDS-XP (Enhanced Definition Synthesis - Expanded) sound-engine, which builds upon the technology used in Pa4X. This advanced hardware and powerful new operating system take the sounds on the Pa5X to a new level. The 24 stereo Oscillators and 160 voices of polyphony power thousands of high-quality sounds, covering a wide range of musical instruments and genres.

The Pa5X features a fully programmable control section with 9 buttons and 9 sliders, allowing for expressive real-time playing. The assigned function is shown by an auxiliary strip display, ensuring you always know what you have under your fingertips.

The Pa5X's advanced chord recognition system is the most sophisticated around, featuring an Expert mode that is crafted around the playing styles of the best modern jazz pianists. With automatic harmonization, a chord sequencer, and a sophisticated chord recognition engine, the Pa5X gives you the tools to create rich musical arrangements no matter what the genre of music.

The Pa5X can play two Styles, MIDI files, or MP3 files simultaneously and in any combination, thanks to the dual onboard Players. These two Players can be mixed with a handy crossfader, or can be used to play a song while another one is waiting to start.

The Pa5X offers a plethora of audio, control, and storage connections. You can use MIDI and USB for controllers or storage devices, HDMI for an external display, and the XLR, jack, and minijack audio connectors for other keyboards, microphones, guitars, smartphones, and tablets.

In conclusion, the Pa5X is the most evocative, powerful, and easy-to-use Professional Arranger ever produced, with much more to explore on this cutting-edge new platform. The unique combination of the Pa5X's new sound catalog, operating system, streamlined navigation, and feature set are ready to take your performance to an all-new level. Discover the next generation of arranger keyboard with KORG Pa5X and be inspired.
