Korg SV2 73-Key Stage Vintage Piano (Black)

The KORG SV-2 Stage Vintage represents a decade of refinement in stage piano design, building upon the wild acclaim of its predecessors with significantly enhanced capabilities. This latest addition to the Stage Vintage series offers more sounds, memory, polyphony, presets, and control than ever before, available in both 88-key and 73-key configurations. The SV-2S models feature an integrated K-ARRAY speaker system for complete performance solutions.

With over ten times the sample data of previous SV models, the SV-2 houses 72 compelling sounds and provides 64 memory locations for storing edited favourites. The SV-2 Editor software allows musicians to create custom split and layered programs, with each favourite capable of accessing up to three timbres simultaneously. Enhanced 128-voice polyphony supports more effective sound layering and sustained chording, while split points can be adjusted directly from the front panel.

Advanced audio sampling techniques and meticulous instrument preparation ensure the most accurate rendition of keyboard classics. Using the finest maintained instruments and cutting-edge multi-microphone methods, every nuance has been captured with precision. The innovative RX Layer preserves authentic mechanical artifacts — the slap of tines, hammer releases, and contact clicks — allowing performers to blend these elements as desired. Full dynamic range sampling recreates every timbral and volume variation from the softest pianississimo to the most powerful fortississimo strikes.

The comprehensive sound library spans classic electro-mechanical, transistorised, tape-driven, analogue, and digital keyboard instruments that defined decades of popular music. Outstanding grand piano sounds from leading German, Italian, Austrian, and Japanese makers form the foundation, complemented by authentic upright pianos, honky-tonk, tack piano, and two exquisite harpsichords. These meticulously sampled instruments remain in perfect tune and impeccable playing condition, requiring no maintenance while providing the authentic character that modern performers demand.
