KORG KRONOS288LS KRONOS with New Light Touch 88-Note Action and Lighter Body
The KRONOS 88 LS Music Workstation professionally designed by KORG is a full-sized keyboard that has been designed along with a light-touch keyboard intended for effortless playability. It is possible to be used in several environments by musicians, sound designers, and engineers for use in live stage, recording studio, theater, and rehearsal applications.
The mechanism of the keyboard has been redesigned so that the velocity is easier to control than on existing light-touch keyboards. The box-shaped keys share their look with KORG's premium RH3-action keyboard but deliver a lighter, faster-playing feel, like that of a synth keyboard.
The KRONOS 88 LS is weighing under 40 pounds, that makes the transport and setup more convenient. In addition to the dynamic keyboard, the KRONOS LS comes featuring v3.1 software, which is capable of offering Quick Layer and Quick Split functions right at your fingertips. Additional OS refinements are made for ensuring the stability and for providing a stress-free performance environment.
Light-Touch Keyboard for Faster Playing
The revamped light-touch keys is making it easy to play anything from rapid organ licks to synth phrases to glissandi. The keyboard mechanism has been redesigned so the velocity is easier to control than on existing light-touch keyboards. Since the keyboard is semi-weighted, it's suitable for playing piano and electric piano in any style.
Lighter for Increased Portability
The LS keyboard is made semi-weighted and lighter than the KRONOS 2 88's RH3 keyboard. It comes along with a weight of just under 40 lb; this is making the transport and setup much easier.
OS v3.1 Includes Quick Layer/Split Functions
Featuring OS v3.1, the KRONOS LS comes featuring quick layer and quick split functions right at your fingertips. Create layers such as piano and strings, or splits such as electric piano and bass. Several additional OS refinements have also been made for ensuring the stability and a stress-free performance environment.
A Fresh Look to Complement The New Feel
With its dark umber aluminum body and sunburst wood side panels, KRONOS LS is designed to to look as good as it feels.
