Korg Keyboard Arrangers

The Korg iX300 is an old arranger workstation and synthesizer. That sentence could mean "bad quality" for some people, but it's actually a great keyboard. It has lots of high quality sounds, with highlights for the Rock Organ ones - can I say that I used the iX300 as "organ" for a long time before moving to a dedicated clonewheel? The panel is not much user-friendly, but if you read the manual, you'll easily get into it. Also, it's very reliable - I once transported it to some stage and accidentally hit it on the wall, but no matter of that, it was still intact. I wonder if there's some modern keyboard that can be hit without breaking... The keybed is very strong too: you can play in più fortissimo (fff) without damaging the keys (!!!) I also tested it as a controller at the time, and it worked very well. It's an overall nice instrument, a bit difficult at the beginning, but the manual helps to understand it.

The Korg Pa2x keyboard arranger is one of my favorite ones to this day. I have been using it for years and it never gets old and I never get tired of using any of the sounds or patches that come with it. You can control all parameters of any sound that you want pretty easy without having any knowledge of sound design like me you can just start messing with stuff until you get what you like. UTILIZATION I have a digital manual that I downloaded from the website from korg. It is easy to navigate through and understand. But most everything with this keyboard is easy to understand once you get the hang of the menus and how to navigate through the sounds and everything you will be on your way to creating great music in no time. OVERALL OPINION Sounds are great, the brass is my favorite its nice and thick and real sounding brass. You don’t need to do a lot of eq to it as you do with a lot of other boards. There are so many different sounds you will spends hours on hours and days on days just going through all of the sounds and seeing what you can do with them. I am very happy that I purchased this a few years ago, another neat thing is that the screen tilts up to the way you want it so no more hurting your neck looking down on board or moving around to get a good view of it, you can simply stay put or wherever you feel comfortable and move the screen to you. You can really compose a full song right on the board and even do your mixing there too if you want, even though I don’t mix on it because I like to take everything through pro tools because that Is what I am use to doing.
