The nanoKEY Fold is an extremely portable MIDI keyboard that is equipped with numerous practical features and can be folded to the size of a smartphone for transport. This means it can be taken anywhere and is always there when inspiration strikes. The flat membrane keyboard allows precise note entry thanks to the push buttons used and can be played almost silently. Two touch sliders allow you to control pitch and modulation, but can also be assigned any other CCs or even scales, which can then be played with just one finger using a swipe movement. Two different scale modes are also available for the keyboard itself: In standard mode, LEDs that light up red mark the keys that belong to the currently selected scale. In Easy Scale mode, on the other hand, only the notes that actually occur in the selected scale are output, regardless of which key is pressed. The chord mode allows you to play complete chords using individual keys, and the powerful arpeggiator brings movement to the performance. As the nanoKEY Fold also has a split function, all these modes can also be combined with each other, so that, for example, the left half of the keyboard triggers chords or arpeggios while a matching melody is played on the right half. Of course, programme or control changes can also be output via the individual keys, which further expands the potential areas of application. All settings can be saved in up to 15 scenes in the device and recalled at lightning speed. The free KORG KONTROL EDITOR software for Mac and PC is available for programming the scenes. The nanoKEY Fold can be easily connected to a computer, smartphone or tablet via the USB-C interface and used immediately with a true plug & play experience. In addition, the standard MIDI interface (via the supplied mini-jack DIN adapter) allows operation with classic MIDI hardware such as synthesizers or drum machines.

Sampling with all the tricks:With the electribe series, you can intuitively modify your precisely constructed patterns during playback and spontaneously create new sound variations. About ten years after the market launch of the electribe SX, we are now introducing a new electribe sampler - with even more ease of use and playing fun for beginners and experienced users.The electribe sampler is wherever speed is required - in live performance and music production.State-of-the-art KORG technology:The newly developed electribe sampler utilises state-of-the-art technology from KingKORG, kaossilator, kaoss pad, taktile and other popular KORG products. Its internal memory can store 250 patterns and already contains the latest preset patterns from the dance music scene. One of the outstanding new features is polyphonic playback, which is indispensable for music styles with complex chord sequences such as house music.Improved step sequencer:With the 16 front pads, you can intuitively create patterns and hear and see the sounds at the same time. The pads can be used as a keyboard to record phrases in real time. Step Recording allows you to enter pitches and note values step by step. When performing, the patterns created can be called up at will using the "Step Jump" function typical of the volca series or the "last step" can be changed to vary the length of each part.With the "Motion Sequence" function, you can record your knob and key actions to use them as sound elements in the created pattern. And to create complex rhythms, you can assign a different drum part to each of the 16 parts or 16 pads. This new feature can even be used on synths.
The handy bag made of robust nylon can be carried comfortably using the generous handle or the shoulder strap supplied and offers space for cables and accessories thanks to the additional storage compartment.

The KRONOS is the ideal stage and studio instrument for anyone who needs maximum flexibility without compromising on sound quality, reliability and features. With no less than nine different sound engines, the KRONOS delivers high-quality sounds from all musical genres - and thanks to the huge and constantly growing number of additional sound libraries, it can be expanded again and again and tailored to individual requirements. The SGX-2 engine specialises in authentic concert grand and upright piano sounds, including the typical mechanical noises and resonances that acoustic instruments inevitably produce. A total of four different high-resolution concert grand pianos of German, Japanese and Italian origin are available ex works, each with 12 dynamic levels and with unlooped samples per key for an outstanding sounding piano experience. The EP-1 Engine is dedicated to the distinctive sound of classic vintage electric pianos with electromechanical sound generators such as reed plates or reeds. In addition to the typical background noises, suitable effect and amplifier models are also included, allowing the most legendary electric piano sounds in music history to be recreated effortlessly. The CX-3 Engine provides the player with an impressive reproduction of the KORG CX-3 tonewheel organ, whose drawbars can be operated intuitively via the nine faders of the KRONOS. Of course, suitable chorus, vibrato, drive and rotary effects are also included to complete the authentic organ experience. The Polysix EX engine is a detailed reproduction of the KORG Polysix analogue synthesizer, whose warm, full sound is predestined for musical genres from the 1980s and early 1990s as well as for more modern synthwave productions. The same applies to the MS-20 EX engine, which is a faithful adaptation of the iconic MS-20 analogue synthesizer from the 1970s, whose unique and aggressive sound is still an integral part of countless legendary electronic music productions today. The KRONOS' large TouchView display can even be used to create virtual connections on the MS-20's patch panel, allowing you to customise the signal path according to your own ideas. The AL-1 Engine is also available for further virtual-analogue sounds, with its complex possibilities and authentic-sounding oscillators and filters for velvety-smooth pads, assertive leads and punchy basses. With the STR-1 engine, the KRONOS offers comprehensive physical modelling sound generation, in which the sounds are generated and modulated in real time using physical models. This type of synthesis is particularly suitable for creating plucked and stringed instruments, whose virtual strings can be plucked, struck or bowed. The MOD-7 engine, on the other hand, specialises entirely in VPM/FM synthesis, which was particularly dominant in the music world of the 1980s, but has also recently experienced a real renaissance in the EDM sector. In addition to brilliant bells and legendary electric piano sounds, it can also be used to generate dynamic pads and ultra-deep basses. In addition, the six operators of the engine can be equipped with waveshaping or ring modulation oscillators as well as PCM samples, which guarantees almost infinite freedom when designing new sounds. "Last but not least, the HD-1 engine is a powerful sampling sound generator that can be used to create complex multisamples and play them over different keyboard and velocity ranges. This engine contains all sample-based sounds such as natural instruments, drums, percussion, choirs etc. and can also be used to play your own samples. The latter can either be loaded into the instrument via USB stick or created using the comprehensive internal sampler function. Separate audio and microphone inputs as well as an integrated USB audio interface are available for this purpose. The HD-1 engine also offers the option of wave sequencing, which is familiar from the classic KORG WAVESTATION from the 1990s and can generate rhythmic phrases and constantly changing pad sounds. All sounds created with these nine engines can be combined with each other within the Combi mode, either as dynamically playable layer or split sounds with up to 16 individual instances. Such extensive combinations can then be organised just like individual sound programs in clearly arranged, colour-coded set lists and can even be called up using a footswitch if desired. Thanks to the practical "Smooth Sound Transition" function, played sounds are not interrupted when the sound programme is changed, but continue to sound natural, even if the new sound is already being played. The powerful on-board sequencer offers 16 MIDI and 16 audio tracks and is therefore also ideal as a practical playback device for click and backing tracks on stage. An extensive and flexibly customisable effects section with a total of 16 effect slots (12 insert, 2 master and 2 total effects + 3-band EQ) is available for all areas, which can be used from a pool of 197 different effect types. The inspiring KARMA function, which is also on board the KRONOS, generates complex musical accompaniment phrases in real time, which can be intuitively controlled and customised using the faders and buttons in the controller section. For particularly expressive playing, the KRONOS provides a variety of playing aids and real-time modulation sources, including a velocity-sensitive keyboard with aftertouch, freely programmable faders, knobs and buttons, an X/Y joystick, an additional vector joystick and an intuitive ribbon controller. Thanks to its optimised system architecture, it works faster than ever before in its third generation, which is noticeable, among other things, in a significant reduction in start-up time. The TouchView display also reacts even faster to inputs, making the entire workflow feel noticeably smoother and more natural. The already extensive collection of ready-to-play preset sounds that have always characterised the KRONOS has been expanded for this model to include hundreds of additional sounds from every conceivable musical style, so that the instrument is ready to use as soon as you switch it on - whether for studio productions, band use or rousing solo performances.
