Korg PA-600 Arranger Keyboard

Features

Stunning Sound

Korg has constantly set the bar for sound quality in performance instruments, and have been relied on by musicians around the world for half a century. The Pa600 provides you a rich, detailed, natural sound with instruments from almost every genre; exploding with depth, subtlety, and accuracy. The DNC (Defined Nuance Control) and RX (Real eXperience) adds easy-to-control natural sounds and gestures that are part of playing a real instrument, such as guitar fret noise, horn glissandos, and mechanical key sounds. More than 950 expressive sounds along with a refreshed GM sound set and 64 drum kits are included. There is also an astonishing multilayer stereo acoustic piano that was accurately sampled from a Concert Grand, and includes String and Damper pedal Resonance allowing you to customize sounds to your tastes. You can save them and use them in live performances as well! 

You can go berserk on the Pa600 as there is an option of purchasing musical sounds and styles from different regions around the world. 96MB of dedicated memory allows many instruments to be added to the Pa600 sound engine, and used with styles that were developed to represent many of the popular musical styles of certain countries.

Play any song, and view it as traditional music notation

The player aboard the Pa600 can read MIDI, KAR and MP3 files. It can even read lyrics and chords from most of these files, and add markers on-the-fly to MIDI files. Traditional score viewing is also available for those who prefer to read music.

The Score Viewer displays the lead track (or any other track) as traditional sheet music along with lyrics and chord abbreviations. Chord names are also displayed in different languages (English and Italian). For beginners, we also added a function to show the corresponding name next to each note.

Easy to use

All the technological power that’s packed inside the Pa600 needs to be user-friendly and Korg made the Pa600 easy to understand and use. The panel layout has been simplified, and the gorgeous color TouchView Display lets you simply think, point and click for trouble-free navigation and performance.

The Pa600 reaches out to musicians of all levels with two interface modes to choose from: Easy and Expert. Easy mode shows only the most important controls while keeping a clean and straightforward interface, useful for beginners or playing live, while in Expert mode, you have full editing control.  

Switches are assignable so your live performances work the way you want, and when you don’t remember where a file, song or style was saved, just use the Search feature to let the Pa600 find it for you.

SongBook

The SongBook is a Musical Database that’s completely user programmable, containing all the settings needed to play a particular song. You only have to search for the title of the song you would like to play, select it and hit “Play”. The SongBook can use styles, MIDI files, or MP3s, and can immediately recall settings such as Song Title, Genre, Artist, Tempo, Volumes, Sounds, Muted Tracks, FX settings, Easy Edit, STS*, Master Transpose and more. Everything that you need to play your song perfectly is in the SongBook; a useful musical feature that is unique to Korg.

*STS - Single Touch Settings is a memory that recalls sounds for all the real time tracks (Upper 1, 2, 3 & Lower).

With the SongBook Editor you can easily view, create and edit your KORG Pa-Series SongBook entries and custom lists using a Windows based computer.

Now go out there and create a sensation in the world of music!
