Musical Styles
Each of the 304 editable Styles provides up to eight accompaniment parts - drums, bass, percussion and more - that respond interactively with your playing. Eight parts, four Variations, two Fills, two Intros and two Endings per Style provide all you need to create a natural-sounding performance. In addition to the eight parts that comprise a Style, up to four sounds are available on the keyboard as real-time parts. The Pa50 can also store 160 user defined Performance settings, each instantly recalling the style, sounds, effects, panning, transposition and other settings assigned to each part.
Styles can be modified, and offer 4 variations, 2 fills, 2 intros, and 2 endings. Korg's unique Backing Sequencer can be used to quickly lay down chord and melodic ideas. The Pa50's XDS Dual Sequencer features two 16-track sequencers and a DJ style crossfader for seamless segues between them for a non-stop performance. The sequencer is compatible with GM, SMF, and many karaoke formats (SMF/Karaoke lyrics will appear in the display), and supports Real-time or Step recording with full track and event editing. The Pa50 even features a pro sound system including custom EQ, a 2 x 15W stereo amplifier, and 2 coaxial speakers housed in a bass reflex cabinet.
Extensive Sequencing
In addition to traditional real-time and step-time sequencing, the Pa50 also features our unique Backing Sequencer, which can capture up to eight tracks of Style accompaniment and up to eight tracks of real time playing in a single pass. In performance, nothing beats the revolutionary XDS Dual Sequencer found in the Pa50. Both models are GM and SMF compatible. Lyrics embedded in SMF sequences are shown in the Display.
Rich, Stereo Sound
The Pa50 features two dual cone speakers in a reflex cabinet and twin 15 Watt amplifiers.
