With 50 years of experience, Korg has consistently set the bar for sound
quality in performance instruments, and have been relied on by
musicians around the world all the while. The Pa600 gives you a rich,
detailed, natural sound with instruments from almost every genre;
exploding with depth, subtlety, and accuracy. With DNC (Defined Nuance
Control) and RX (Real eXperience), you can add easily-controlled
natural sounds and gestures that are part of playing a real instrument,
such as guitar fret noise, horn glissandos, and mechanical key sounds.
Over 950 expressive sounds are included, including a refreshed GM sound
set and 64 drum kits. There is also an amazing multilayer stereo
acoustic piano that was accurately sampled from a Concert Grand, and
includes String and Damper pedal Resonance. Sounds are fully
customizable to your tastes, and your changes can be saved for fast
locating and use in your performances.
One very exciting feature added to the Pa600 is the option of purchasing
musical sounds and styles from different regions around the world. 96MB
of dedicated memory allows many instruments to be added to the Pa600
sound engine, and used with styles that were developed to represent many
of the popular musical styles of certain countries. Full details on the
available options can be found at shop.korg.com/pa
