Description

Essential Information About the Korg KROME-73EX Synthesizer

  • Versatile Workstation: a broad catalog of modern sounds (electro, pop, ambient) and realistic instruments for quick composition, both in the studio and on stage.
  • EDS-X Engine with a generous PCM library and ready-to-play programs, from pads to cutting leads, including pianos.
  • TouchView Touch Interface: smooth sound editing, splits/layers, and track mixing via a large color screen.
  • Integrated Production: 16-track MIDI sequencer, arpeggiator, Drum Tracks, and a complete effects section to finalize arrangements directly on the keyboard.

A KROME EX Designed for Modern Creation

The KROME EX follows the line of Korg workstations focused on "production," with an approach centered on immediate inspiration: carefully selected contemporary sounds, fast ergonomics, and performance tailored for efficiency. The addition of new sounds (ethnic instruments, synthetic textures, and cinematic effects) further expands the playground while maintaining accessible and straightforward handling.

For Whom and Which Styles?

This synthesizer is aimed at keyboardists and producers who want an instrument capable of delivering both main sounds (pianos, EPs, drums, synths) and song construction without multiplying devices. Ideal for pop, electro, synthwave, ambient, film music, worship, or cover band setups, it suits both progressing musicians and experienced users seeking a reliable workstation that is quick to program and effective live.

Features and New Additions

The KROME EX is based on the EDS-X (Enhanced Definition Synthesis - eXpanded) engine, relying on detailed and expressive PCM playback. It features rich, wide sounds with elaborate effects, high-quality grand pianos, punchy drums, and a selection oriented toward current electronic music. Comfortable polyphony facilitates layering (splits/layers) and complex arrangements, while the effects section (inserts, masters, total, and EQ per track/patch) provides a "mix-ready" finish. For composing, the 16-track MIDI sequencer, arpeggiator, and Drum Tracks enable quick groove and structure building, with immediate control via joystick and rotary knobs. On the integration side, USB, MIDI, and SD card storage simplify data exchange and use with a computer.
