KORG PA1X PRO 76 Key Professional Arranger Keyboard with Helicon voice processor.

Regret that I have to sell this keyboard – studio use only – due to lack of space.

However, I have composed and recorded literally hundreds of movie, classical, jazz, and pop vocal tracks on this inspiring keyboard.

Whiles some of my music has been polished using the in-built sequencer, the majority has been created ‘live’ in one take. Yup, that’s drums, percussion, bass, accompaniment, lead instrument and vocals in one take, mixed on the fly. No engineer needed, just me and the music!

This feature – of an easy to use musical sketchpad – is what makes this instrument so memorable, and unique.

PS. There may be similar models on ebay, but note that mine is upgraded to include Helicon voice software, V3.0 operating system, MP3, and many extra styles and sounds!
