Review Synthesizers Korg Kronos 73. Where to buy it?

I’ll tell you how this post is built. First I list the features of the Korg Kronos 73 synthesizer. Then you have a video or two, purchase links and useful comments from other users and then you have one of the most useful parts; comparison tables with similar keyboards so you can compare.

  • 73 Keys
  • Keyboard: RH3 Real Weighted Hammer Action (The weight of the keys on an acoustic piano that digital pianos try to imitate to match the touch of a real acoustic piano. The keys in the high register are heavier and in the high register less. This is a different concept of sensitivity on the keyboard that serves to regulate the volume of the note. But a hammer action keyboard always has sensitivity on the keys.)
  • Sound engine: 9 Synthesis engines – SGX-2, EP-1, HD-1, AL-1, CX-3, STR-1, MOD-7, MS-20EX and PolysixEX
  • polyphony (Number of notes that can sound at once. This includes songs that sound at once. So if you play over an accompaniment sound, more notes will accumulate.): Up to maximum. 200 sounds (according to synthesis engine)
  • Sampling: Open Sampling System (resampling, In-Track sampling)
  • Master keyboard functions: Keyboard and velocity Split (Split the keyboard into two different instruments)s
  • Layers and crossfades of up to 16 programs and/or external midi (MIDI allows you to do such wonderful things as connect the keyboard to the computer, record a soundtrack and with certain programs pass with a click what you have played to musical notes in a score. MIDI tracks store information from musical notes) devices
  • Advanced Vector Synthesis
  • KARMA Function
  • Integrated effects
  • Drum monitor
  • 16 MIDI Sequencer + 16 Track HD recorder + Master track

  • Inputs: 2x 6.3 mm jack balanced (mic-/line input switch), S/PDIF optical, MIDI in/out/thru
  • Connectors for pedal (The most important pedal of a piano or keyboard is the sustain pedal and is used to keep the note playing even if you stop pressing the key.)s: Damper pedal (The most important pedal of a piano or keyboard is the sustain pedal and is used to keep the note playing even if you stop pressing the key.) (half damper supported)
