Korg PA-5X 88 International

With the Pa5X, KORG launches a comprehensively equipped arranger keyboard flagship. The Pa5X, with its completely redesigned sound engine and user interface, features a special user interface that makes the keyboard easier and better to use than its predecessors: logical color codes that run through many layers, large displays and buttons, photo-quality icons, clear graphics, thousands of inspiring sounds, and lively styles for almost every musical genre.

The 88-key KORG Pa5X (hammer action with aftertouch) takes a special place among top arranger keyboards. Pianists who want to use versatile arranger functions or keyboardists who prefer a piano playing feel are addressed here.

Fittingly, the Pa5X’s acoustic and electric piano sounds come from the KORG SV2 stage piano, and synthesizer sounds come from the KORG NAUTILUS, wavestate and ARP2600, among others. A special round-robin function ensures ultra-authentic and lively drum sounds.

Unique in the Pa5X: two completely independent players that can play styles, midifiles and MP3 files – no matter in which combination! So it is also possible to mix two styles or even play them synchronously. «  »Smooth Sound Transition » » ensures that no notes or effects are cut off during crossfading or switching.

The keyboard has a high-quality finish with an elegant look, wooden side panels nestle against a sturdy aluminum case. Real-time control of many parameters is very easy with an additional strip display and associated buttons and faders, as the display always actively shows the value of the parameter in question. processes are a thing of the past, all files and styles are available at the touch of a finger, no matter on which connected medium they are stored. An open memory structure allows virtually infinitely large user folders, in which as much as the up to 1TB large SD memory card (optional) allows. This makes it very easy to combine data from different users.

A powerful mixer with built-in finalizer levels all styles and files to the same volume level. A large chord sequence library invites you to jam, and the 8-inch, tiltable and lockable touch display in tablet quality shows all chords, lyrics and (midifile) notes in high-resolution.

The microphone connection (combo jack) is joined by a separate guitar input with its own gain, and up to four guitar effects can be stored as presets and recalled per track in the freely programmable songbook. A four-voice harmonizer is also on board, as well as an autopitch function for contemporary vocal performance.
