Members 1001gear Posted January 25, 2013 Members Share Posted January 25, 2013 Sounds good. Value about 500$. Your cost, as close to 2000$ as they can get?That guy working the knob reminds me that perf synths need redundant left right controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members zzzxtreme Posted January 25, 2013 Members Share Posted January 25, 2013 no aftertouch apparently, so my prediction is mrsp $1499 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members zzzxtreme Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 Really curious mildbill. I gonna get involved in a 'classic metal' band, which requires a synth, rather than a rompler. And $1300 is no small amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mildbill Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 Was just wondering, because you seemed pretty excited about the MX-49. You could pick up one of those and an inexpensive VA for about the same price as King Korg, or less. But ya - check out King Korg for sure. It might be exactly what you need.

Members zzzxtreme Posted February 2, 2013 Members Share Posted February 2, 2013 Mildbill, excited about mx49? Nah, but its the only rompler available in 49key or less. (for my current band) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RichF Posted February 6, 2013 Members Share Posted February 6, 2013 Hi folks,KingKORG doesn't have aftertouch, but it does have another interesting feature: The keys can trigger at three different points in their travel, via a parameter called "Key Response". You can set it to Shallow, Normal, or Deep to mimic the key throw of various instruments (clav, organ, various synths).Hope this helps,-Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members b3keys Posted February 7, 2013 Members Share Posted February 7, 2013 Rich,Can you split the keyboard with synth sound only, or can you combine piano/synth strings, piano/organ?Is/will there be an editor?How easy is it to import/export user sounds?

Members George321 Posted February 7, 2013 Members Share Posted February 7, 2013 King Korg it has 200 preset sounds, so you can split the keyboard choosing from this sounds. Also you can assign arpeggio function on your left hand (lower notes) and at the same time to play another sound with your right hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members suitandtieguy Posted February 13, 2013 Members Share Posted February 13, 2013 i want the {censored} out of this thing after playing it at NAMM.two words: PAD CITY.i think it could have been better (i have no problem being critical of anything), but as a playing-oriented VA for 1300, i think it's pretty cool.sure it's not a Virus TI. the 61-key Virus TI is also 2.4 times as expensive as this thing.it's definitely capable of replacing (and bettering) the JP-8000 in my live rig, which for me is all it has to do to get me excited.
