Korg SV2 Stage Piano Package, 88 key

The Korg SV2 Stage Piano is a unique and versatile performance instrument that provides an authentic and timeless playing experience. It offers a level of customization that has never been seen before, enabling you to perform on the instruments that defined your favorite era of music. The SV2 features classic keyboards, electric pianos, organs, and many more sounds, as well as a collection of the finest pianos in the world.

Building on the success of its predecessor, the SV1, the SV2 comes with more of everything – more sounds, more memory, more polyphony, more presets, and more control. It boasts over ten times the sample data of the SV1, providing ample memory for all 72 built-in sounds. The SV2 also features 64 memory locations, allowing you to store your edited favorites for instant access during a performance. When used with the SV2 Editor software, you can even create your own split and layered programs and save them to a quick access location. A single ‘Favourite’ can access up to three voices at once, which is ideal for playing a piano/bass split with a layer of strings, for example. The SV2’s polyphony now stands at 128 voices, providing more layering and sustained chording for extended realism.

The SV2 delivers an exact and authentic rendition of many classic keyboards, using state-of-the-art sampling techniques alongside careful instrument preparation. Korg has captured the best-maintained instruments and recorded them with the latest multi-micing methods. From the release of the hammer to the click of the contacts, every element of these treasured keyboards is preserved in the SV2. What’s more, they’re saved in the RX layer, meaning you can mix in as much or as little of these authentic nuances as you require. The SV2 recreates the full dynamic range of each instrument, as well as timbral and volume changes generated between the dynamic spectrum, resulting in a three-dimensional sense of presence.

The SV2 houses a treasure trove of classic electro-mechanical, transistorized, tape-driven, analogue, and digital keyboard instruments, all reproduced with unparalleled realism. With nearly all of the American tine and reed models, a Japanese electric grand, and even a rare German electric piano, you’re sure to be impressed by the SV2’s electric keyboard selection. You can choose from analogue, digital, VPM, FM, and sampled pianos, even the popular Korg M1. For organists, the SV2 contains VOX combo, Italian transistor, and American tube organs, plus new church and cathedral organs. The SV2 also includes mallets, choir, brass, guitar, bass, and synths for creating rich layers.

At the touch of a button, you can summon some of the greatest sounding pianos from around the world. Depending on what sound you’re looking for, you can choose from leading German, Italian, Austrian, and Japanese instrument makers. For something a little more intimate, you have the choice of a fantastic honky-tonk piano and even a genuine ‘tack’ piano. The SV2 also features two gorgeous harpsichords; one French and one Italian. You can play these instruments on their own, layered with another sound, or split across the keyboard, providing excellent flexibility.

This Korg SV2 Stage Piano Package includes the Korg SV2 Stage Piano, an 88-key keyboard that features the Korg RH3 (Real Weighted Hammer Action 3) touch selection with eight curves for customized playing. The package also includes an X-Frame Double Braced Keyboard Stand by Gear4music and SubZero SZ-H100 Stereo Head.
