Hardware Midi Controller Keyboards products for your home recording studio

While the words portable and affordable describe the K-61P USB-MIDI Studio Controller, they by no means define it. It features solid, full-size keys, and a selection of four velocity curves (including a fixed level—great for mimicking organs and early mono synths) that tailor the keyboard response to match any performer.

Octave shift keys provide access to the full range of notes, and the key transpose function lets you reach them comfortably—or instantly match the range of another performer.

Control Freak
The K-Series are graced with a variety of sophisticated controllers unusual for an instrument in this class. Performers will be happy to see a set of Pitch Bend and Modulation wheels, just like in Korg's RADIAS, MS2000B and microKORG synthesizers.

Onscreen Assignments
Using the free editor software that comes with the K-Series, you can create and save custom controller assignments—or scenes—in an easy, visual manner. This editor software allows you to load the scene that matches your application into the any of the K-Series controllers, so that you don't have to reassign the same controllers manually—a real time saver! In addition, a number of pre-programmed template scenes are included, so you can instantly be up and running with many popular software synthesizers and music production programs.

One of Korg's best-selling synths is now FREE!
Quite a claim, to be sure, but it's true. The K-Series controllers come with a free M1 Le software synthesizer.

The M1 was introduced back in 1988 and went on to become one of the best selling synthesizer of all time—and defined the workstation category in the process. This software version perfectly reproduces the original M1 while taking advantage of the power and benefits of your computer interface.

The M1 Le contains all of the preset sounds and all of the PCM waveforms of the original, and a new browser/search function makes it easy to find that "perfect sound." In addition to stand-alone versions for both Mac and Windows, the M1 Le can be used as an RTAS, VST or AudioUnits plug-in instrument.
