The Pa1000 uses four times the PCM memory of the best-selling Pa900 and expands the user PCM memory capacity to 600MB through compression. The device will cover almost every style you can imagine.
The enhanced built-in speaker system produces loud, rich sound that is enhanced by standard features like the TCQ Helicon Vocal Harmonizer, dual MP3 player and recorder, and Dual Crossfade Sequencer.
Video output is standardised so your audience can sing along with the lyrics on the screen. The Pa1000 combines all this in a high-quality enclosure with aluminium inserts in the side panels of an elegant chassis to provide a prestigious look on any stage.
Feel the keyboard
The 61-key keyboard offers a semi-weighted action, feels precise, features naturally responsive velocity sensitivity, and is designed for musicians of all levels.
Powerful and easy to use
The Pa1000 was designed with the concept of combining a slim profile with a professional motif. 2x33W amplifiers drive the 4 speakers in a bass-reflex cabinet to generate a rich, full-bodied listening experience. The main panel has been optimised to ensure that all controls are ergonomically and intuitively positioned to make every performance smooth and natural. Big, bright and bold, the new capacitive TouchView display features a redesigned graphical interface that is easier than ever to read, even in the most demanding lighting environments.
The best sound quality
The Pa1000 is powered by KORG's advanced EDS-X (Enhanced Definition Synthesis-eXpanded) sound engine and comes with over 1,750 ready-to-play sounds. This realistic collection offers a huge mix of classical and contemporary keyboard and orchestral instruments, plus electronic and acoustic instruments from techno to folk. Two new multi-layer stereo grand pianos (with damper and body resonance) are included, plus electric pianos from the renowned KORG SV-1 stage piano.
Player/Sequencer
The renowned KORG XDS Crossfade Dual Sequencer Player supports the MP3+G (also known as MP3+Graphics) format for MP3 files in addition to the most popular text formats. This new feature allows playback of backing sequences with enriched text and graphics, which can be displayed simultaneously on the built-in TFT display and an external monitor.
Improved connectivity
MIDI connectivity can now be made via the USB HOST ports (in addition to the USB DEVICE and MIDI ports), allowing for easy connection of controllers such as digital pianos without the need for special adapters.
