Korg X50 Review

This is my own review of the Korg X50. This is a sixty one key Korg synthesizer which features the HI (Hyper Integrated) sound engine that is used on the world-famous TRITON series. It will give you great quality sounds within the ultra-compact body. This unique keyboard keyboard delivers unbeatable convenience along with pleasure for live performance and also song production. The 64 MB PCM memory space includes a wide range of sounds, including piano, strings, guitar, along with synth sounds. Together with 512 sound Programs, as well as 384 ?Combinations? which let you use up to eight Programs with each other, you can start enjoying a diverse assortment of terrific sounds right away.

The effect part lets you simultaneously use four effects (one insert effect, two master effects, and also one EQ), and offers a entire variety of effect types such as reverb, chorus, as well as delay. Best of all, the X50 is compatible with Korg?s TR series of music work stations and so you can share sounds and songs with Korg users all over the globe. The X50?s ultra-portable style and design also allows greater availability to musicians on the go with out having to forfeit quality.

The sound on this keyboard is wonderful and also with aftertouch as well as velocity… acts even better. Effects seem powerful and you have got 89 of these to select from. It would certainly be nice to have a sampler but for another $200 you can get the korg TR61 that’s basically the x50 with sampler. I havnt experienced any static or relics from mine. All appears to be crystal clear. I use mine for industrial/symphonic/ebm sounds and it is capable of generating most things ive needed so far. And really when I look at the price I paid, I doubt I possibly could get a greater soundong board and not pay out an additional $500 or so for it. Making it easily one of the best for it’s price tag. (except maby the micro X that is about $550 and it is just an X50 packed into something about the size of the microKORG)
