KORG kondigt zijn nieuwste High Performance Arranger aan in de befaamde Pa-serie Professional Arrangers: de Pa700. De Pa700 zit boordevol nieuwe sounds (voorzien van Defined Nuance Control voor verbeterd realisme), die performances fris en opwindend houden, alsook een aanzienlijk uitgebreide reeks styles die muziekgenres van over de hele wereld omvat. Combineer dit met krachtige performancefunctionaliteit, een intuïtieve gebruikersinterface en een rijke, gemodelleerde sound, en je krijgt een Arranger voor de meest kritische en veeleisende bespeler.
Volledig nieuw is de toevoeging van de KAOSS FX, die je bij je performance creatieve bediening levert. Van subtiel morphen tussen Variations en types Drumkits, secuur mixen tussen begeleidingssounds, live bewerken van lopende ritmes tot de meest radicale note-crunching effecten die door talloze dj's worden gebruikt, tape delay en arpeggio’s, je kunt ‘liquid mixing’ toepassen op elke style of MIDI-song met behulp van de gebruiksvriendelijke, computergebaseerde compositiemogelijkheden. Verleg de grenzen van je muzikaliteit.
Met meer capaciteit dan ooit tevoren en talrijke, langverwachte, nieuwe features vestigt de Pa700 een nieuwe standaard m.b.t. arranger workstations. Met een enorme sprong vooruit t.o.v. de legendarische en succesvolle Pa600 legt KORG de lat hoger door het bieden van nieuwe, nog realistischer sounds en krachtige nieuwe features, geleverd in een slank en professioneel ogend design tegen een nóg betaalbaarder prijs.
KORG is verantwoordelijk voor de succesvolste en meest respecteerde Arranger Keyboards ter wereld. In gebruik bij talloze professionele musici in élk land van de wereld, hebben KORG Arrangers overal publiek in vervoering gebracht en bespelers in verrukking, met de magische combinatie van ongeëvenaarde geluidskwalteit en features. KORG-technologie mixt deze grootse KORG-geschiedenis met krachtige nieuwe technologie en suggesties van musici van over de hele wereld om zo een nieuwe standaard in Arrangers te vestigen. Het resultaat is een muzikale krachtcentrale die technologische magie herbergt in een stoer en gebruiksvriendelijk design: de KORG Pa700.
