The Korg SV-1 Stage Vintage Piano contains hip, in-demand, and soul-satisfying keyboard sounds collected together in a single instrument. Decades of electro-mechanical, transistorized, tape-driven, analog, and digital legends are joined by a collection of rich acoustic pianos, all reproduced with stunning realism. The SV-1 is about much more than excellent sound; it re-creates the look, feel, and visceral pleasure of performing on a vintage instrument.Crafted using Korg's RX (Real eXperience) technology, each sound is a detailed and authentic re-creation, accurately capturing the full range of expression and dynamics of the original. Every element of this digital piano has been preserved—the snap of the tine, the release of the hammer, and the click of the contacts. By isolating these sonic components, the RX engine allows you to create a sonic signature from showroom-shiny to road-ravaged, adding just the right amount to suit your taste.The Korg SV-1 also recreates the effect pedals and studio processing that gave these sounds their original luster. The proven, tube-driven (12AX7) Valve Reactor circuit adds warmth and realism to period-accurate amplifier models. Together, the three-band EQ, Pre-FX, Modulation FX, and Reverb/Delay add yet another dimension of authenticity to your playing.Designed with performance in mind, the SV-1 is a pleasure to play. The RH3 real weighted hammer action is the finest keybed that Korg offers, with a solid, responsive feel that inspires confidence. You can forget menus, never mind banks and programs, and stop staring at displays because the Korg keyboard's entire front panel is always live, using clearly labeled knobs to dial up exactly the sound you're looking for. Saving your eight favorite settings for quick recall is as easy as saving a station on your car radio.The SV-1 digital piano provides an economical, reliable, portable, and maintenance-free alternative to collecting and maintaining a stable of vintage instruments.
