The Korg Pa50 is a professional arranger keyboard with 61 velocity-sensitive keys ideal for songwriters and live performers. It offers 660 editable sound programs that include several solo instruments with expressive, natural sound. Once you've chosen your primary instrument, you can select up to eight accompaniment parts from the 304 styles provided for a full-band experience. Four effects processors are also built-in that offer 89 different effects.
The Pa50 offers extensive sequencing options for full flexibility. In addition to real-time and step-time sequencing, a unique Backing Sequencer is featured, which can record up to eight tracks of real-time playing and eight tracks of style accompaniment in a single pass. With the Pa50's dual amplifiers and built-in speakers, you can start playing right out of the box with no extra equipment required.
This Pa50 features a solid-state disk which can hold up to 20Mb of compressed data. It provides higher performance than ordinary flash ROM. You can select Styles directly from the floppy disk at the touch of a button - no loading operation needed.
