Korg PA5X Oriental 76-key Professional Arranger Workstation Keyboard
The last word in professional arrangers
Available with 61- or 76-note semi-weighted key beds, this formidable arranger workstation is clad in a sleek aluminum chassis with wooden side panels that will stand up to grueling tour schedules while adding an elegant accent to your living room or studio. Plus, all the Pa5X Oriental key beds are equipped with channel aftertouch for enhanced expression. Korg designed the Pa5X for professional composers — and those who aspire to be. As such, it is equipped with the quality sounds, features, and connectivity that today’s professionals demand. With a bevy of optional premium accessories available separately, it’s also the nucleus of an expandable ecosystem that’s customizable to suit your personal workflow requirements.
Streamlined, modern user interface
The Pa5X Oriental’s top panel features an assignable Pad Matrix, a Mixer section, multicolored LED buttons, and a large, tiltable touchscreen that put you in complete command of your music creation process. The 8-inch color touchscreen occupies the center of your workstation cockpit. This comprehensive yet easy-to-navigate control center puts you in total command of your Pa5X. Whether you’re at home, in a studio session, or onstage, the screen’s shrewdly designed graphical user interface puts all the sounds and operational functions right at your fingertips. The display is color coded to match the programmable LED buttons on the control panel, facilitating quick selections and tweaking. It’s also bright enough (and, of course, dimmable) to be read comfortably in any lighting conditions, and it can be tilted to optimize viewing from any angle, whether you’re seated or standing.
A sea of inspiring sounds
The Pa5X is a high-end professional arranger workstation packing a whopping soundest with over 2,200 inspiring factory patches, to which the Oriental edition adds a massive library of additional sounds. You can use these premium, production-ready sounds as is, but when you’re in the mood to create something entirely new, fire up Korg’s patented XDS Crossfade Dual Player. It features a unique X-Fader balance control that enables you to blend or crossfade between songs or sounds in any format; for example, Styles to MIDI files, MIDI files to MP3 files, or Styles to Styles. Add to that over 600 onboard factory Styles — all freely programmable and instantly recallable — and you have an incredibly powerful workstation for composing music in any genre.
Awesome power, refined
The Pa5X’s masterful design incorporates powerful cutting-edge technology that has been meticulously implemented to allow for the subtlest nuances to be massaged and brought out in your music. It all starts with Korg’s brawny EDS-XP sound engine, a triumph of software engineering that powers thousands of premium-quality sounds covering an expansive range of musical instruments and music genres while delivering an unparalleled degree of sonic realism and expression. Under the hood are 24 stereo oscillators and 160 voices of polyphony, allowing for the realization of pretty much any patch you can imagine, as well as spot-on playback of even the most complex arrangements. The EDS-XP underpins an advanced system architecture that also allows for exciting new features such as Round-Robin drum and percussion performances, Smooth Sound Transition, Sound-Controller 3 functionality, and more. It all adds up to a formidable arranger workstation with virtually unlimited creative potential. Pilot your music to new exotic destinations with the Korg Pa5X Oriental!
