All user reviews for the Korg SV-1 73

I know all its competitors .. (I have had clavias ..)

Correct finish, a look of hell ...

A keyboard stage at value for money rather boring ... because the equivalent heavy touch from competitors c is more expensive (especially a North internship at the end of life has 2600 euros ... it makes a lot of difference!)

Touch, not too lightweight ..
The everyone has a feeling ... therefore try ..

At usage:
I've used it on the steps ridiculous scenes at all:
He assured a death, a large dynamic ... a grain of hell .... something dirty and vintage, exactly the intention.

I'm working on, I'm used to my ... and it is true that this keyboard clears something special!

What is important, is that the c keyboard is very well what it is designed. (Live and warm sound)

After, I have a hard time understanding the previous opinion in the sense that we don t buy a keyboard to bring him back after 45 minutes ...

Keyboard feels situation s tame ... and after several hours we start to feel things!
When comparing it to a soft "Akoustik piano" .... it is a bit funny ... (go play live the Akoustik piano with a midi controller ...)

In short ..
This keyboard is the love it or hate it, but what I know, it is that in a situation he assured manner very "pro" in terms of sound ...
It also sells to like hotcakes ...

Today, the sv1 is the only alternative to keyboards in clavia north ....
Except that a North course is much more expensive, and a North electro 3 has not Delay, feel heavy or dual stereo output (for clavias against the will of superiors organs ..)

In conclusion, the sv1 is the best compromise if the organ goes into the background compared to pianos and eps..et really clears a big potato!

Everyone to think!
(I will complete my mind later for lack of time!)

I tested Pigalle side and here's what I think.
Goodies:
- It is compact, perfect for gigs
- The quality of touch is very good (it's heavy!)
- It is robust with his sheet structure (the pictures I thought it was all plastic)
- Anti headlock ergonomics
- Pianos échantilonnés with their faults and a well-regulated dynamic
Least
- It is not possible to change the sampled sounds (competition does) to his (or turn those we dislike)
- It is red, as direct competition, it annoys
- It is convex, therefore, impossible to put anything above QLQ
- Not possible to adjust the organ sounds (lack zippers) nor the synth sounds (lack access to parameters)
In conclusion
- A very good stage piano
- It makes me think of the "basic with large keys" phones for seniors: everything is simple and displayed in large ... some will love and others will hate ...

I reu there a week and I'm delighted. Very good product.
I test a Roland RD-700GX in stores. Good touch, but the sounds are not very convincing.
I cost several demos of the SV-1, Nord Electro 3, V-Piano, CP-1 and flner on some forums.
Although all these products seem very good keyboards, the SV-1 contains a lot of good points.

Most
+ Facilit of access, one is quickly in harmony with the instrument, as would an acoustic instrument.
+ The touch that renders very well the intricacies of the game.
+ Piano sounds are absolutely phnomnaux! Sound of hammers, the pedal and subtle harmonics !!
+ The electric pianos are also excellent. The lamp pr-amplification provides excellent realism. And (I did not test the possibility to master of the wah-wah effect with a pedal.
+ The violin sound including both web and solo according to vlocit.
+ The editor allows to go further.
+ The organs are russis but not worth a Nord Electro 3 all the same.

Least
- Mono-timbral (although some sounds are in layer). Unable to play another sound by squencer while you play. (This is a Stage Piano purist too)
- Non splittable (it would be multi-timbral)
- Only 44 Possible Program Changes (6 x 6 Variations Groups Favorites + 8). Limit as keypad.
- Can not change the basic samples. (I upgraded the OS, so why not?).

Amliorable
The current OS does not allow for "locker" the rglages and as some I touch a favorite buttons for my game.

QualitPrix report:
Just okay (compared align competition). Technically, it is only mono-timbral.

With experience, you do again-this choice?
Yes. Hsiter without taking account of the game fun as the SV-1 provides.

It's a full sized piano, with piano keys and all the bells and whistles in terms of connections, XLR or line outputs, midi in and out, sustain pedal, etc. Korg aimed this product at the professional piano player who needs various timbres at her disposal on a portable solution, and they did so very well.

While most of the sound are presets, you can alter various settings with the handsome and responsive knobs on the front, and if 'analog' is your thing, you can 'heat' up things with the built-in AX127 tube.

UTILIZATION

I gotta be honest, most of my experience with this product comes from recording other people playing it, since I'm not a pro piano player. That being said, I've had no trouble asking the performer to adjust the timbre or even experimenting with the vintage sounds. We can almost get where we want quick and easy and once it's setup we can focus on the performance, and that's where, I think, good pianos stand out from the rest of the controller/synth market.

As an engineer, it's always a pleasure to mix sounds coming in from this keyboard.

SOUNDS

Grand Piano, Electric piano, organ, you name it, this one has it all. As I said in the previous paragraph, responsiveness is top notch for performers with piano technique that really use dynamics in their playing, even saturating and distorting pleasantly when really hammered. My favorites are the organ and electric pianos, and since you get all the octaves of a regular piano, you can really spread those chords and create huge sounding pads.

OVERALL OPINION

I love that you can just plug it in, browse the sounds and hit record in about 5 minutes. I hate that things this good and easy are not cheap. I love that piano players that know what they're doing immediately begin pouring out great sounds out of this device. I hate that I'm not a great piano player.

If you're in the look for a piano solution for your studio, definitely give this one a try. Remember that Korg sounds too Korg sometimes and compare it to Nord's options out there, which are definitely strong competitors.

6 octave keyboard.
36 sounds in the bank loaded by default. Editable infinity ... fully customizable Banks.
2 outputs Jack 6.35 / 2 XLR DI outputs / ES Midi / USB connection for editing banks

UTILIZATION

Heavy touch reminiscent of a real piano. Maybe a bit too much if we look for a touch of Rhodes. Simple and clear manual.
Simple and intuitive to change sounds and banks editing software.
Midi not use at the moment

SOUNDS

The sounds of piano and Rhodes or Wurlitzer are faithful to the originals, especially since they can be modified to obtain THE desired sounds. The lamp gives a true grain if desired.

The sounds of violins are useless in my opinion this type of keyboard. No sounds wanted anyway ...

OVERALL OPINION

Used for a few years just for vintage sounds. Hesitated with a Nord Stage but in my opinion the SV1 to more character than the NORD. Excellent value for money given the infinite customization

This is a key scene 7 octaves, there are 6 banks of 6 sounds each, 36 sounds in total, plus additional sounds available on the Korg website. Can modify them (a little) with the software supplied with the keyboard.
Level connections, there is everything you need, USB, MIDI input and output Jack of course not forgetting the XLR.

UTILIZATION

Touch is relatively heavy and very well done.
The general configuration is could not be more simple, one button function. Although the manual is amber, it is doing very well without.
The MIDI part is simple too, the local function is just to OFF and c is.

SOUNDS

For me, the organ sounds are well made and are enough for me. The effects are well done but nothing more, they are sufficient in themselves.
The sounds are quite realistic, except perhaps for piano and string sounds (the most difficult to sample). Note that are Hammond, Rhodes and Vox are particularly good.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month now and c is undoubtedly a choice I would repeat. Having tested a Roland RD 700NX, I much prefer my Korg. I also tested a North, it is certainly better but also more expensive ...
In addition, there is a good value for money, cheap to the sounds present.

UTILIZATION

Good stage piano with vintage sounds, ideal for Rhodes, Wurlitzer, Clavinet.
Touching means (I prefer the keyboard Roland FP4 I had before)
step setup: no menus and sub-menus: just the old knobs.

SOUNDS

Fan of his vintage Rhodes, Wurlitzer, Clavinet and Hammond, the SV1 was on paper the ideal piano for me ... Regarding vintage electric pianos, I'm not disappointed rhodes and wurly are excellent and especially varied at will. The amp simulation gives them a unique touch. Clavinet excellent, especially with the automatic wha wha.
I am more qualified for acoustic piano sounds. I had a Roland FP4 before, and I much prefer the Roland.
The organ sounds are meanwhile not recommended for anyone who expects to have a clone of hammond. Unlike Clavia here no drawbars, Korg has chosen to focus on a few sounds, and so we did not have much choice in organ textures.
No split keyboard ... damage

OVERALL OPINION

I love the piano, but there is a BIG BIG PROBLEM: SV-1 suffers from a defect (apparently standard) and not least. The power cut (the term used by the service technician) loose. it began with a few plantades only a few months after my purchase, and two weeks ago, the piano has not started after a umpteenth Plantade.
The technician at the store where I bought my sv1 told me that this is the fourth failure sv1 in two months, with the same symptoms. The mind boggles. There is talk of a piano to 1800 euros, and talking about the Korg! And finally, the service Korg is taking a loooong time to ship a replacement part. My sv1 is for repair for almost 2 weeks, and I have the unpleasant feeling that it will last ...
I am even more disgusted that without this huge bug, this piano suited me 99%: vintage look, electric piano sounds perfect for me, simultaneous amp very useful: it was a way for me to have a rhodes a wurly and clav in one piano, which is more portable, and as if everything was plugged into a good old tube amp. All SV1 are perhaps not affected by this defect, but mistrust still ...

The Korg SV-1 is a very good digital electric piano. I have been using it for years, a friend has one at his house. Even though I am not a great pianist its still good for me to get to use it from time to time just to work a little bit on my skills. So for me it is a practice piano but for him and others it’s a piano that they have really polished their skills on. It can be in either 88 or 73 key version, he has the 88 key version and it has a really nice feel too it. Similar to a real grand piano, you really cant even tell that it’s a digital piano buy the feel of the key’s. Of course you can by the sound though because nothing is like a real grand piano except for a real grand piano.

Overall, I would have to say that purchasing this digital piano (Korg SV-1) is really worth the money spent. Its pretty light too just incase you have to transport it from one place to another. It also has mide connection abilities so you can sync it up with your software. Though I have never used that feature so I cant really comment on it. Also, a ¼ jack is available for the pedals that you can purchase. The pedals don’t come with it though, you need to purchase those separately. If you are willing to invest a good amount of money in a vintage style digital piano then the Korg SV-1 will work for you without a question. Not all of the sounds are piano sounds, it also has good Rhodes and organ sounds. Don’t expect to get the synth sounds that you get on workstations though. It just doesn’t have those capabilities. But the electric piano sounds are great, you will be very pleased.

First thing to say you should always know why and especially how to use a product you buy!

Here we not buy one thinking sv1 kronos or a rival in the world of computer music with an ivory piano!

I bought it primarily because I'm a fan of Wurlitzer and Fender Rhodes others!
Indeed it offers good sound well sampled in a machine with a vintage aesthetic pleasant and reminds us the old standard!

I would further clarify for her that this is the only (except the kronos) proposes that in addition to guitar amp simulations which is very valuable!

It allows another to have these two electric pianos without hurting the wallet and enables gains as a smaller footprint and less restrictive movement!
We can compare this principle with a fan of Hammond that the absence of a team of roadies and a truck can find the happy with the use of an electro north!

The piano samples are as successful and will be in their place on stage but not in the studio!
I will not speak of other sounds that have nothing to do with this keyboard!

Finally as a midi keyboard he's great with his touch to control your vst piano example

So I recommend to fans of old EP and the keyboard players looking for a superb MIDI keyboard!

totally agree with mazetov.

I just play it and I bring a small point, I owned a motif xs, p120, p90, CP33 from Yamaha. Nord electro 3. Fp 5, FP8, of Roland, in other words that I do I am not a first keypad. I was always frustrated because I had a good or piano (yamaha) on Rhodes was not terrible, and when Rhodes was good (Nordlead) touch the piano or not great.

So today with the SV1 can be compared with the ex Nordstage. It was finally the best compromise.
piano sounds (a bit metallic but correctable). sympa.Rhodes touch rather very good. organs, I am not a specialist but ca do it anyway though. it is on the Clavia Nord are truly oriented organs but I know not play.

and the price is the most significant difference 2900 Euros 1900 Euros for keyboard korg .......

The SV1? Excellent for:
- Touch the piano,
- Acoustic piano sound,
- The electric piano, etc.. All this you know dj.

But:
You should know why achte this keyboard. This is the opposite of the trend-cran-menu options endless. His logic is that of an analog instrument: it takes a basic sound, and adds effects, reverb, one pedals, etc.. Fun: the reproduction of the sounds of an instrument mcanique rel (high noise pedals, etc.)..

Limitations:
The SV1 is no split!
Only 8 SETTING THE memory for sound and they assign sounds dj factory.
Midi functions are minimal
The buttons are positioned so that the fawn happens unintentionally releases during the game and we change its unintentionally. Even if this does happen to me once every three months, I dread the day on that happens during a concert (I'm an amateur, but I play occasionally in public).

In short, I love the sound of acoustic piano (one of the preset factory rglages): Excellent. But you need a good sound system or good headphones trs to enjoy it.

The instrument is excellent as the sound it produces and the pleasure it provides, I dplore just ridiculous number of presets, the impossibility of Split and the absence of a change of function " smooth "(with transition) as is the Kronos.
Bought in 2010, the SV1 me that I had redcouvrir Korg apprci the pass at the time of M1 (in 1988). The SV1 makes me want a Kronos because I just redcouvrir Korg sounds.

The Korg SV-1 73 is a very high quality compact and portable digital piano that is vintage. So get rid of all that bulky vintage gear and go with the KorgSV-1 73. This board has very high quality sounds for such a little board its very powerful. The sounds on this board are amazing and will surprise everyone from the pro down to the beginner. The Rhodes on the Korg SV – 17 3 are very high quality and they are my favorite sound that the Korg produces.

The KorgSV-17 3 is very stable and sturdy, its built to last like most of the other models that Korg makes. Korg is known for bringing high quality gear no matter whether its vintage or not. Korg has always had the upper hand over other companies when it comes to sounds. Korg produces very warm and rich full sounding instruments.
If you use this board live, that’s how you will get the most out of it. It has a beautiful live sound and look for vintage gear. This board is top of the line, unfortunately is its priced a little high in my opinion. But all of Korg’s gear is pretty high priced. But they stand behind the product that they create and they don’t do price cuts often. So if you get a good deal on the KorgSV -17 3 then I suggest you get it. This board is stocked with beautiful electric sounds.
You can even connect via USB to your computer to get more sounds and keep your board updated. I am very happy with my decision to give the KorgSV-17 3 a try. This board is worth the money if you are willing to invest. So if you need a high quality vintage electric piano make the investment in this one.

I'll give my opinion on this keyboard I tried a full hour in the store. My personal comparisons are:

- A North electro 2
- A Nordstage (version 88 and also hit waterfall).
- The Kawai MP8.
- The sounds of piano and acoustic electro various workstation market.

- Ergonomics and use.

It is the strong point of the machine. The interface is amazing, it is dessuite "inside". We understand very quickly how it works, everything is in front.

The touch is good but not extraordinary. It is above Nordstage 88 (I like that personal touch at all levels), a hair below the Nordstage Compact, well below the Kawai MP8 which for me hit level, is the rolls.

- Sounds and effects.

- The effects are of excellent quality, I was really amazed. It sounds, it really grain.
- Simulations of preamp I have not found it great ... It saturates a little on the lamp, but it makes little difference, not even a little heat.
- The piano sounds are comparable to what korg (top version). It is very very good, really, though usually made Korg piano sounds very average. This is below what can be done Yamaha, and below the piano Nordstage.

- EP (Wurlitzer 200A, Clavinet, Rhodes etc etc ...). It is expected that the instrument, and the Hammond, and it is clear that ... the appointment is missed. The least we can say is that Clavia is well ahead. Whether a simple or a Nord Electro Norstage it sounds infinitely better, I was expecting a little about what kind of result, but not at this point. SV 1 person flat in this register, not the expressiveness of the Clavia stuff when you attack, the statement is immediate and without appeal, no grain ... No soul. It's still OK, but really nothing more. I think a big Motif XS offers you the same easily.

- Hammond, far below what electronica offers north (I do not even speak of a C1 ...).

- Violin and other ... : The violins sounded really great, the characteristic of Korg in the register. Anyway, both have a Workstation for that. The few synths are available ... gadget.

Ultimately, this machine offers multiéchantillonage vintage machines with all the "next" to do "as at the time" (simulated preamp, lamp, very good effects classics of the time ...), but nothing more .

Finally: We have an average unit, with a super multi-effects and a good hit ... too expensive for what it is, and well below what the competition offers in the registry. In the register of PE (where it is expected) it is barely better than the workstation's time, which is not eligible for an instrument meant to be "highly specialized".

This choice of purchase is to be done: Certainly not.

<span class="postbody">Hello,

I am not at all agree with this description.
It's unbelievable, the more I play the SV1 and the sound of a Steinway is surprisingly realistic. I listened carefully to this video Corea
and I have to tune up .... the same sound (except the hand play on the strings!) with the same dynamics (pp to ff with the finest and most powerful).
Frankly, I do not regret my Nord Stage 88, there was a real feeling of playing on a real Steinway! The dynamics are incredible, PP to FF, everything is there. Mechanical noise gives the impression that the instrument live is amazing!
I recommend it to all those who want a good acoustic piano, a Rhodes and a Wurlitzer super amazing.
on the other hand you need a good amplifier for the instrument to give the best of himself. I tried it in stores on small powered speakers, and I was not convinced, but once plugged into my amp ... WOW! TOP!

Christian.

<p class="MsoNormal"> I use only a few days, but I can already put a notice on the quality of this instrument.

Design-copy, this retro look with large front buttons wurlitzer style I love!

The manufacturing-general is very good, even if it is manufactured in China.

-The sounds are very well made, it is even what is best in the field with keyboard because to have used since the first electro north to north course I can just tell you that it is actually a matter of taste because the 2 are really good.

-N who has never owned the original instruments it emulates I rely on my experience with the North course I loved, I'd say the big difference between the 2 for me is that the keyboard seems more "in the original imitation "but the SV1 him better in" interpretation "of the game and also a bit more" realistic "because the keys are released and the sound of metal, but knowing he will soon clavia update it (if they have not already).

-The pleasure of play is huge.

-Touching for me is the best I could test, (this is only my opinion).

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal"> -The dynamic is great.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal"> - A small precision, sustain pedal type and also a partition door comes with a pity that the feet do not and it would have been faultless.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal"> -The biggest downside for me is the recording of only 8 memories, which for me will be a problem, but I have not yet installed the VS-1 editor (included with the keyboard) which according to my reading allows change all the sounds of sv-1 including nonvolatile memories, so to see the use ...

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal"> -I forgot to say that the quality of the effects in general is excellent!

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal"> "I do not regret my choice because, surely I will complete later with a Nord Electro 3 for the best in the field of organ and also other colors pianos (like the harpsichord, vibes, mellotron), which will complement this well in fact I fall for the look and fun to play well on top and sounds that vibrate.

That's it, I took the leap. I bought it yesterday in 88 key version for 1870 euro. I was looking for a keyboard that would really feature the piano / rhodes. I found and I'm not disappointed. I find the feel rather good, a little less than the Kawai MP8 though. The two main piano sounds are excellent and can be easily retouched or via commands from the control panel SV1 either through the software. Similarly, it is possible to adjust according to taste mechanical noises: + or - present.

It's a keyboard that has a lot of possibility on which I enjoy playing.

Not a keyboard that has great pretensions to anything noon. Similarly, the organ sounds are not the ones I prefer and should be dropped strings, choir and bass. I have another keyboard to it for me.

For how long have you been using it?

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
North

What thing do you like most/least about it?
Pros:
-Easy to use basic (knowing that many parameters 'hidden' are very accessible if you plug a USB pc)
-The sounds in general (I have a true Rhodes and honestly I found my sound very soon! But the sound of Wurlitzer, Clavinet of, pianos are falling)
-Design (he of the mouth this keyboard!)
-The tube sound a bit like cradingue love!
-Built-in effects!

Cons:
-Some sounds do not care where (VS = Vintage Stage, they explain to me what the sound of the DX7 Rhodes pourave is one for example!) And could be replaced by other sounds (it n 'there is only one example of the mellotron, why not more?)
By default, all sounds have reverb which personal troubles me a bit (I do not like the reverb in general) as m'enfin can change very easily via the USB is not really a problem!

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Huge! Just for the sound of the Rhodes it's worth it. And given that there is a sling load of other sounds the question does not even arise!

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
YES YES YES YES three times!! It's been quite a while that I was looking for this kind of keyboard with realistic sounds good. Korg and there was a job almost perfect (but honestly the least are very very small minority).

Used for a good month, still mostly at home. Qq tried other models of piano / synth touch piano store. I bought this model because I did not sub (or usefulness "pure pro") for a northern course, deep down I do not really use synths, touch, and that the effects on Korg are better than the north, and the ratio q / p is simply excellent.

(+): I love love the rhodes, and ALL the effects, it is serious gun. Amp emulations are really excellent, with a real grain and a beautiful drive / saturation, which is rare, you just have to work a chouille. Record overall very realistic and organic all sounds nice touch, there is already much fun to compose himself, and even more in groups. Very good XLR outputs and headphones, and even then it sounds in mono on my bass amp. The pianos are great for the game pop / rock (but perhaps the classical purists will not find their account when the expressive hand on PP for example, is really a key stage for group play, it looks fantastic like that on the piano / rhodes / organ - and clavicle also once worked, especially with "amp" - but should not ask him to be a true full tail). Otherwise, fairly good general construction, and it has to face. Not too bad of a master keyboard if completed with a control surface, but not so good is his world, and it has no aftertouch.

(-) No split: while there is anything ... Incomprehensible! Also not scalable for a penny: no card, let alone Roma REAL new sounds possible via USB, in the end we may just rework what is already inside, even if it's already good, that basically it as it opens a lot of universes, even modern ones, if you look a little on the issue, and that's clearly not sold like that, it stings a bit in 2011 the need to buy a second keyboard to promptly other synth sounds, and can not really add any other vintage sounds (eg other rhodes). Big black spot also for setting output level following instruments / presets: it goes in all directions, one is obliged to publish all levels with the computer for our presets, sometimes through tinkering with the emulation of "amp" is definitely not the foot (especially when your name "stage" something and slap the slot "plug and play"). Lot of time in the changes of sound, even with the preset buttons (which could be preloaded them at least, always with a view "stage" something). Effects changes also stop the sound often is not cool (especially when you're on "stage"). No tap tempo for effect "echo" is completely con ... The effects are not backed up separately, it is painful to redo everything when you work a piece by seeking coherence between different keyboards, the editor at least they could include something about it. And then finally on the side "stage", a small additional button to "bank" for example 8 * 8 presets, it would almost cost nothing more, and it would have arranged a lot of people without losing its soul the beast ... Some artifacts point slightly changing the rendering of the notes on his grave very particular, and also more bizarrely the middle of the clavicle, albeit subtle. Finally, the keyboard is not bad at all in the touch (although slightly heavier than a traditional piano study), but it is also true that lateral play, now I do not "sense" not it is necessarily dangerous to life ... Remains that the future will tell us if the quality of substantive appointment is on that side.

In short, Korg has still made a very good keyboard, makes for good fun with the sounds of legendary vintage keyboards although realistic, piano and strings ultimately pleasant enough. The qualities of emulation, effects, and game are certain, and all that goes nickel / mix group. Some caveats, however, who do not have a keyboard "pure pro" as the North Course (or the Yamaha S90), and not so "plug and play it when we want to make attacks are" stage " keyboard ... But I think it will satisfy all but in a lot of musicians, even demanding, thanks to its quality / price / touch / pleasure (well it's more a metaphor than a real relationship, but you'll probably understand what I mean): I think it is unmatched on the market today.

PS: if Mr. Korg hear me - Please Make a pedal with all these effects and amp emulations / lamp (and with 8 * 8 presets / switches)! Especially for the bass (I'm also bassist)!!
