Full Description
New and Improved
The Korg Pa600 expands on its predecessor, the Pa300. You're provided with a whole new range of sounds to enhance your performances and take your productions to the next level. The TouchView TFT has also been re-designed, now boasting a bigger display. This makes it easier to read and change presets.
Compact and intuitive design
Lightweight and compact. The Korg Pa600 was designed with the professional in mind. This keyboard is aesthetically pleasing. Its slim enclosure houses a high-quality, custom designed system with two 15W amplifiers and two dual cone speakers within a bass reflex box. Thanks to its intuitive and ergonomic layout, the Pa600 is the ultimate keyboard for musicians. All the controls can be effortlessly reached to ensure your creative spell isn't broken.
Shine bright
Korg understand the wants and needs of their demographic. They know that when performing you may not always have access to adequate lighting environments. This can make the need to adjust your sound during a performance difficult. That's why the compact TouchView TFT display has been redesigned to ensure it is easy to read in any environment. You'll no longer be left in the dark thanks to the Pa600!
Unparalleled expression
Take your arrangements above and beyond. The Pa600 boasts three switches and a joystick. You can use these in conjunction with Korg's Defined Nuance Control to make your performances sound larger than life. Add grit and growl to your saxophone, emulate the mechanical noise of a trumpet, as well as the "Hitchcockesque" piercing attack of strings. Absolutely anything is possible. Employ this to add a sense of reality to your virtual performances.
