Ah, the search for the best sampled grand piano goes on. Each time we
think we've found it, along comes something new. And the "something
new" here is Korg's SP-250 Digital Grand, with its third generation
88-note RH3 real weighted, graded hammer action keybed. Combined with
the brand new, velocity-switched, multi-strike sampled grand piano, you
get the feel and sound of an authentic concert grand at a fraction of
the cost of the real thing. But the piano is only the star.
Featured
players that just might walk off with the Oscar for "Best Supporting
Instrument" include a total of 12 acoustic and electric pianos plus
jazz and church organs, mallet instruments, harpsichord, clavinet,
choir, strings and guitar. Naturally, you get lifelike reverb and lush
chorus effects at the touch of a button, a sleek, intuitive control
panel with LED indicators and a built-in sound system. Oh, and did we
mention the elegant black finish with steel and wood grain accents?
A total of 30 sounds including a new, lifelike grand piano
Since this is primarily a digital grand, the piano sound better be
awesome, right? Well, it is, thanks to an all new, PCM sampled grand
with velocity switched, multi-strike stereo samples, each of which is
longer than any piano in its class (and longer means more realistic).
The total number of sounds on the Korg SP-250 is 30, which includes 12
acoustic and electric pianos plus jazz and church organs, mallet
instruments, harpsichord, clavinet, choir, strings and guitar. Equipped
with MIDI in and out, the SP-250 can control other modules or can be
used as a 16-part multi-timbral sound source.
Full 88-note keyboard with weighted, hammer action keybed
Real piano sound is great, but for a "total experience" you need a real
piano feel. Here's where Korg's third generation 88-note RH3 real
weighted, graded hammer action keybed comes into play. It's got the
feel of a real grand, even when playing fast, repeated notes or trills.
Three dynamic touch curves let you custom tailor the keyboard response
to any player's style or preference. A special damper-style pedal
allows for half-pedaling realism, a feature many other digital grands
lack.
Elegant black finish with steel and woodgrain highlights
Okay, it sounds and feels great. But what about looks? You don't want
some ugly plastic monster in your living room or conservatory. Not to
worry! The Korg SP-250 looks as good as it sounds with an elegant black
finish with attractive steel and woodgrain accents. No matter where you
put it, it'll look terrific. Yet for all its good looks, it's
surprisingly light weight, which means you can move it when you want or
need to (perfect for those spur-of-the-moment redecorators).
Stand and pedal included
The SP-250 includes a high-quality damper pedal that is so important
for proper piano performance. It provides the ultimate expressive
control thanks to half-pedaling, which is a variable damping effect
based on how deep you press the pedal, rather than the simple on/off
switch found on cheaper instruments. The dedicated stand is both simple
and stylish, and fits securely into a recessed area in the bottom of
the piano providing a remarkably solid feel. The stand's lower crossbar
even prevents the pedal from "creeping" forward in performance. Best of
all, the SP-250 can be easily removed from the stand for moving and
taking around for live performances.
Built-in stereo sound system with adjustable reverb and chorus
Okay, we've gotten this far, so why skimp on a cheap, cheesy sound
system? The answer is simple: Korg didn't. The SP-250 comes with a
specially designed stereo sound system with an optimized bass-reflex
enclosure that delivers the best sound in its class. From full, rich
bass response to light, airy treble and everything in between, this
system delivers on the promise of excellent sound quality. Naturally,
that includes a lifelike reverb so your living room can sound like a
concert hall, plus lush chorus effects that add just the right amount
of harmonic motion to your favorite onboard sounds.
Sleek, intuitive control panel with LED indicators
Designed to be hugely user-friendly, the Korg SP-250 has a sleek,
intuitive control panel that features brilliant LED indicators that
provide instant visual feedback to the player. Now add a music stand,
onboard metronome, dual headphone outputs and even an auxiliary audio
output in case you just happen to want to connect the SP-250 to your
brand new home theater system (cue wild applause). The only thing Korg
didn't add was instant talent, but with a digital grand this good,
you'll quickly find yourself learning new techniques or even writing a
few pieces of new music. Yeah, it's that good.
