Korg SV1 is an Amazing Stage Piano that's Now Available at an Amazing Price

April 28, 2011 - PRLog -- From Elbow to Little Boots, the Korg SV1 (or Stage Vintage Piano) has become the keyboard of choice for musicians that want to recreate the authentic tones of classic keyboards from the past
With the SV1, Korg very sensibly appear to have focused on 3 key attributes: playability, ease-of-use and accuracy of sound.
As a result, the quality of this digital piano is noticable firstly through Korg's use of its RH3 keybed, a truly responsive and beautifully weighted hammer-action affair. Beyond that, Korg have clearly decided that SV1 customers are players, rather than geeks. To this end, and unusually in a contemporary keyboard, there are no screens or sound banks, just traditional knobs and buttons that are 'in use' all the time.
Of course, the ultimate test for any instrument that claims to faithfully recreate classic keyboard tones is the sound (or sounds, to be more accurate). On this front, the SV1 delivers less of a Eureka moment and more of a knowing smile that grows! Fundamentally, there's no doubting that Korg, using their RX technology and a heap of other stuff, have captured some very evocative tones.
They've also added some very accurate period amp and cab modelling as well as a collection of classic effects that are easily chained.
So, the Korg SV1 can save you from lugging a bunch of vintage gear around, but it's still not cheap. That's why SoundsLiveShop, already one of the best value online retailers around, are offering a further £200 off the Korg SV1 73 (73 keys) for a short period.
