Key Features

WAVE SEQUENCING 2.0: It separates the timing, the sequence of samples, and the melody, so that each can be manipulated independently. It also adds new characteristics, including shapes, gate times, and step sequencer values. Each of these is a 'Lane', and each Lane can have a different number of steps, and its own start, end and loop points. Every time the sequence moves forward, the individual Lanes are combined to create the output.

EASILY EXPRESSIVE, EXCEPTIONALLY DEEP: Eight programmable Mod Knobs are customized to bring out the most in every sound, often taking them in entirely new directions. Use the knobs in realtime performance, and also save the results as new sounds. Add in the Pitch Bend and Modulation Wheels and the unique Vector Joystick, and you’ll always have multiple dimensions of realtime expression. Almost all front-panel knobs, and most on-screen parameters, can be modulated.

AN ARSENAL OF EFFECTS: Each layer has three dedicated effects; additionally, the Performance has a master reverb and parametric EQ. Along with standards such as compressors, EQs, choruses, flangers, phasers, and stereo delays.

GIGABYTES OF SAMPLES, 96 STEREO VOICES: There's brand-new samples, and a selection from the libraries. Of course, KORG also provides all of the wave station samples (including all options), plus a huge library of wave station Wave Sequences. Play up to 96 stereo voices with pristine clarity, using sample playback technology.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE BOX: Adding value to your purchase, Austin Bazaar bundles your instrument with necessary accessories.The included MIDI cable features spiral shielding and durable nickel-plated connectors, a reliable choice for your cable needs in the studio and on stage. We've included a sustain pedal so you can begin using your instrument immediately. Keep your instrument in mint condition with the included polishing cloth.
