Korg Pa500 61-key Professional Arranger Keyboard

Description
  • The "Baby Blue" The Professional Arranger at an entry level price For the musician, composer, performer and entertainer, the interactive Pa500 is the perfect musical partner. Like its big brothers the Pa800 and the Pa2XPro the Pa500 uses our RX (Real eXperience) technology to deliver a sound unprecedented in an arranger keyboard. With exclusive Korg features such as the XDS Dual Sequencer, intuitive TouchView interface, quarter-tone on-the-fly and a four way joystick for realistic articulation, the only thing really missing is a big price tag. Stunning Sound It all begins with sound. Based on the EDS (Extended Definition Synthesis) engine found in the Korg M3, Pa800 and Pa2XPro, the Pa500 provides 80 voices of polyphony and a breathtaking quality of sound.
