Korg X5D
The Perfect Synthesizer for Beginners and Professionals
With its wealth of high-quality sounds and superior functions, the Korg X5D offers all the performance power of top level synthesizers. As it is amazingly easy to use it is ideal for beginners and professionals alike.
A Class By Itself
Using the acclaimed AI2 Synthesis system, the X5D gives you 8MB of PCM wave form memory. It features 215 drum/percussion sounds and 430 Multi sounds, plus a generous 64 notes of polyphony for even the most complex musical passages. There are also two completely independent dynamic multi-effects processors, featuring 47 different effect types, including delay, reverb, distortion and rotary speaker, making it possible to get exactly the sound you need.
With the X5D, you can create and save up to 100 of your own original Programs and 100 Combinations. What's more, it also features classic sounds from Korg synthesizers, such as the MI,T-Series, Wavestation and 0I/W. The X5D also provides the flexibility of two memory banks. Preset A, which is compatible within the X5D, and preset B, which is compatible with the X5. And the X5D's full General MIDI compatibility, with 128 General MIDI Programs plus 8 drum programs including one for GM, allows you to play back song data easily.
A full 61-note keyboard along with modulation and pitch bend wheels are provided. For those players who like to use alternate tunings, the X5D has a special scale function that gives you equal and pure temperament, as well as Workmeister III, Kirnberger III, Arabic, Indonesian and other exotic, nonstandard tuning systems.
While the X5D is lightweight, there's nothing lightweight about its performance - its sound is simply stunning. Because it's extremely portable and rugged, you can take your X5D anywhere.
What's more, the X5D can be linked to a computer via the built-in PC interface on the rear panel (using the optional Ag-001/002 cable and driver software).
This gives you maximum 64-note polyphony, integrated General MIDI (GM) and other GM-compatible programs, which you can play or edit directly from your computer. You can use the X5D's keyboard to input notes to your sequencer. And the selectable band rate ensures that the X5D will be compatible with your system-no matter what computer you use. In short, the X5D is ideally suited to any multimedia and computer music application.
