Keyboard semi-heavy, excellent workmanship and very enjoyable to play.
76-key velocity-sensitive (adjustable) and aftertouch (ID).
Sounds galore! (14 banks of 128 programs and combinations to ID!)
At the factory, all the banks are not "filled".
With additional options syntheses, banks programs are complete on the combinations, in addition to numerous factory, it is easy to create!
EFX 200 / MFX / TFX, everything is editable!
8 sliders, 8 knobs and 16 switches help editing sounds, sequences of Karma .. excellent!
Complete connectivity, whether MIDI, Audio in / out, digital.
3 inputs for pedals, assignable.
Polyphony very comfortable. (Nothing to do with the Triton or Trinity ..!)

UTILIZATION

The general pattern is clear who is "accustomed" to the philosophy KORG ..!
As for the manual enough to my taste!
KARMA deserved a prominent place ..!
The sound editing is often very simple. Id for effects.
As for Karma, this is where it gets tough ... But trying, trying, etc. .. we manage to good results!

SOUNDS

Sounds, overall, conviennet me very well.
Expression and good sound quality, very realistic ..
Then, each creating new EFX with other, modifying the original Karma, etc. ..
Everything is possible!
A bad score for the sounds of "voice" .. very synthetic and NOT real!

OVERALL OPINION

Having since 2007, I find it far superior to the following models, which I had in my hands: Triton Pro-76, Trinity 76, XP 80, XP 50 .. E86 ..!
Optional sounds, Karma, effects, removable screen (which has no Kronos ..!), Polyphony, ergonomics and playability are the points that I call positive!
As for the sequencer, very powerful, he sometimes "beuguer" from time to time, especially when you choose "copy from combi" ..!
Must often adjust damper settings and aftertouch, sometimes it expects to record 180 measurements, for example, the sequencer and not recorded as 120 ..!
Price / quality ratio: a bit expensive, of course, especially when you see the price of Kronos (with all sound synthesis and more ..)
Yes, I would do this choice without hesitation!
