Product description The KRONOS 88 LS Music Workstation from KORG is a full-sized keyboard that has been designed with a light-touch keyboard for effortless playability. It can be used in several environments by musicians, sound designers, and engineers for live stage, theater, recording studio, and rehearsal applications.The mechanism of the keyboard has been redesigned so that the velocity is easier to control than on existing light-touch keyboards. The box-shaped keys share their look with KORG's premium RH3-action keyboard but deliver a lighter, faster-playing feel, like that of a synth keyboard.The KRONOS 88 LS weighs under 40 pounds, making transport and setup more convenient. In addition to the dynamic keyboard, the KRONOS LS features v3.1 software, which offers Quick Layer and Quick Split functions right at your fingertips. Additional OS refinements ensure stability and provide a stress-free performance environment. - Light-Touch Keyboard for Faster Playing
- The revamped light-touch keys makes it easy to play anything from rapid organ licks to synth phrases to glissandi. The keyboard mechanism has been redesigned so the velocity is easier to control than on existing light-touch keyboards. Since the keyboard is semi-weighted, it's suitable for playing piano and electric piano in any style.
- Lighter for Increased Portability
- The LS keyboard is semi-weighted and lighter than the KRONOS 2 88's RH3 keyboard. With a weight of just under 40 lb; this makes transport and setup much easier.
- OS v3.1 Includes Quick Layer/Split Functions
- Featuring OS v3.1, the KRONOS LS features quick layer and quick split functions right at your fingertips. Create layers such as piano and strings, or splits such as electric piano and bass. Several additional OS refinements have also been made to ensure stability and a stress-free performance environment.
- A Fresh Look to Complement The New Feel
- With its dark umber aluminum body and sunburst wood side panels, KRONOS LS is designed to to look as good as it feels.
