First appearances! The elegant aluminium cabinet and inspiring user interface makes a strong visual statement. The main panel has been redesigned and optimized to ensure that sliders and knobs are ergonomically and intuitively well positioned to enhance any performance. Korgs graphical user interface is now even easier to read and has been renewed with more detailed icons and objects. The screen has been enriched with new side tabs for quick access to the most important functions. The new Search feature quickly locates anything needed during live performance. The 76-key model of the PA3X also features a motorised tilting display. Sound quality at its best Based on Korgs sophisticated EDS (Extended Definition Synthesis) Engine the PA3X provides truly outstanding new sounds. RX (Real eXperience) Technology and the DNC (Defined Nuance Control) system refine an already powerful sound engine allowing the performer to accurately and expressively introduce the most subtle nuances and sound articulation. Assignable switches and a ribbon strip have been added to the joystick control; the result is deeper control and even richer expression. Over 1100 sounds including a new stereo grand piano and new electric pianos from the acclaimed KORG SV-1 stage piano; new wind instruments basses and stunning guitars; plus new digital drawbars with leakage and key on/off noises provide the perfect sound foundation for any harmonic and melodic need. More than 100 drumkits including new Real Ambience Drumkits give life to any rhythmic texture and sound truly authentic with more control over volume pitch EQ ambience and more. The internal Sampler is now equipped with a new Sound Compression tool (no loss 1:2 ratio). Sounds can be fully edited and can now use up to 24 oscillators for each note! Studio quality effects The use of premium effects can not only add polish and class to your overall sound; they can also make your tracks sound more interesting! Korg is famous for its outstanding studio quality effects and the PA3X includes the best of the Korg effects library. Over 140 effect types are available running from the standard reverbs and delays through to the more unusual effects such as vocoding as well as the new vintage effects from the acclaimed SV-1 Stage Vintage Piano. Some effects are suitable for single instruments while others add the final colouring space and texture to the overall piece. For the latter the PA3X includes effects from an industry leader: Waves Audio. The PA3X includes the powerful MaxxAudio suite which has been described as “the next generation of audio processing tools”. These onboard effects provide unparalleled performance delivering sound that is louder clearer fuller and more polished. TC-Helicon Voice Processor Korgs long term cooperation with the world leader in vocal harmonies TC-Helicon continues in the PA3X with the new Voice Processor recognized as the state of the art in vocal and harmony processing. With new features and new algorithms including even better pitch correction the TC-Helicon Voice Processor ensures your vocals have the highest possible sound quality. Up to 4 realistic voices plus 2 doubled harmonies are available and can be controlled by the keyboard MIDI and even MP3 input. Thanks to the new Audio Chord Detection function chords can be automatically extracted from an audio file and sent to the Vocal Processor. Adaptive Mic Setting is a special feature that puts RX technology to work immediately after connecting the microphone to the XLR/Combo balanced input. This amazing new feature monitors the input signal and auto adjusts parameters such as the Adaptive Gate EQ Compression and the De-Esser to make the vocals sound smooth and studio produced. Adaptive Mic Setting is unique to Korg in the world of Arrangers! Do it with Style! The PA3X delivers over 400 Styles straight out of the box. Each one is a fully-realized musical environment dedicated to creating a particular musical style. With so many to choose from the PA3X can provide instant access to a vast and robust range of musical genres. Each Style features 4 Fill In + Break patterns one for each variation. Using the new Auto Fill function they can be automatically recalled as you move between the four variations. The PA3X holds 1200 locations for you to save your new Styles and your own settings. Several new sophisticated parameters ensuring professional and realistic guitar tracks have been added with Guitar Mode 2 making the guitar tracks of every style rich and authentic. A new function called Chord Sequencer records your chord progressions on-the-fly allowing the user to immediately play along with their own chord sequence. Player/Sequencer The famous Korg XDS Crossfade Dual Sequencer Player now supports in addition to the main music formats the +G format for both MP3 and MIDI files which can be played together. This new feature allows backing sequences to play with enriched lyrics and graphics which can be displayed simultaneously on the on-board TFT display and on an external monitor (with the VIF4 option installed). There is also a Marker Function allowing direct jumps to a given position in the song. A sophisticated Score Viewer is also available. Two different MP3 or MIDI files can be played simultaneously and both MIDI and MP3 files can be transposed accelerated or slowed down. Powerful new technology drives the all new Advanced Vocal Remover allowing vocals to be removed from MP3 files with unparalleled accuracy. More advanced than a simple center-channel cancellation tool the Advanced Vocal Remover keeps the original stereo image of the song while removing just the main vocals. The enhanced 16 track sequencer allows the most sophisticated levels of sequencing but also provides quick and easy song creation using the Backing Sequence function. And because the PA3X is very clever it can record your entire performance! You can run a song play the keyboard sing along and everything will be recorded in MP3 format and stored on an external USB device or in the internal Hard Disk. For years Korgs PA Series has been the most respected envied and successful line of interactive arranger workstations on the planet.
