s like the track of a Midi song that can be played on a score. Especially since a video output allows to view them on an external screen. Singer and musician! Connect a microphone and use all available parameters including the TC • Helicon voice processor, to produce a natural, studio-like vocals. The Vocal Remover function even allows you to delete the vocal part of MP3 tracks to sing it yourself. For your guitar, even surfing functions with processors, effects and other models of tube amps. Unprecedented creativity with Kaoss effects. The Kaoss effects are literally exhaustive! Subtle metamorphoses between variations or drum kits, precise mixing of accompaniment sounds, direct transformation of rhythms, radical DJ effects, echo-to-tape and arpeggiator effects, etc.. You can even apply a "smooth mix" to any Midi Style or Song with easy-to-use composition features. To learn more about the Korg Pa1000 ... This new keyboard is endowed with many features that put it well in the heart of the (very) big.

First, let's talk about the sound engine. That of the Pa1000 has four times more PCM memory than the Pa900 and therefore expands the amount of PCM user memory to 600 MB using compression. This results in instruments with more dynamics and therefore a higher quality of your performances. The number of user-style slots has also been expanded to a maximum of 1,152 that will cover almost every imaginable style (also being reviewed). Beside that, the integrated speaker system has been enhanced to produce even more powerful and dynamic sound via standard functions such as the TC Helicon voice harmonizer, a dual MP3 player and recorder and the dual Crossfade sequencer. Note: the video output is normalized, so your audience can sing the lyrics on the screen.

The Pa1000 incorporates all this into a high-quality shell with aluminum inserts overhanging a sleek chassis to deliver a vivid look on any scene! Many other improvements on the detailed sheet in French on the website of the manufacturer: the arranger Pa1000
