Korg C520DC Free Accessories: Sennheiser HD415 Headphones, Korg PC600DR Bench, Emedia Piano & Keyboard Basics Korg C520DC Description: THE MODERN ART OF MAKING MUSIC®: The all new C-520 concert piano combines advances in sound, touch and design into a feast for all the senses. The Piano eXperience While existing piano sampling techniques have resembled an audio snapshot, our new ?Piano eXperience? technology is more of a hologram, accurately reproducing every dimensional detail of the sound. All piano sampling for the C-520 is done in stereo to preserve the natural imaging of the sound. Different dynamic levels are captured to extend the instrument's expressive vocabulary. Going even further, the C-520 uses the sound of the key being released and the hammer returning, as well as the sympathetic damper resonance of the strings to create all of the subtle shadings that create a superior instrument sound. This attention to detail defines the sound of the new C-520, providing an instrument that can interpret every nuance of touch into a meaningful musical gesture. Piano is just the beginning While great care has gone into creating such a satisfying piano experience, piano is just the beginning. Harpsichord and clavinets, organs, electric pianos and dozens of other sounds are also available. Forty sounds are arranged into four banks of ten for easy access on the C-520. Two sounds can be used together for a layered performance and the C-520 also has a split function for playing sounds in separate areas of the keyboard. To further enhance the sound, you can add adjustable levels of reverb and chorus. In addition, the C-520 has a per-sound ?Insert Effect, ? including Rotary Speaker, Tremolo, Delay, Phaser, and Equalizer, which can greatly add to the character of each sound, even when layering and splitting. The Performance function allows you to easily save and recall up to 30 of these sound combinations, including levels, effects, split point, and more. Responsive piano action The C-520 features Korg's newest ultra-responsive RH3 graded hammer action; weighted and balanced like a true grand piano, the keys are progressively lighter toward the upper end of the keyboard. In addition, the response of the keyboard can be adjusted to suit the player's taste thanks to eight velocity curves, plus a ?fixed? level setting for authentic harpsichord and organ performances. The C-520 has three pedals ? including half-pedaling response for the damper and soft pedals ? for an even more authentic performance. A convenient folding music rest is provided. Easy on the eyes and ears A pleasure to play, a pleasure to hear, the C-520 reflects improvements in cabinetry and design that makes it a pleasure to look at as well. The C-520 features a sliding cover to protect the keyboard when not in use. The cabinetry is characterized by graceful curves and accents, adding a refined look. The dark rosewood finish is designed to blend with any décor. The front
