Benefit
The addition of aftertouch makes the iS40
more expressive and professional allowing
you to control a sound's vibrato or other
effects directly from the keyboard. Aftertouch
is also important for computer users who
will be using the iS40 as their main input
keyboard.
This selection of sounds goes way beyond
just a GM "engine", and includes plenty of
locations for your own sound creations.
The iS40 allows the you to easily tweak and
even create new sounds from scratch.
This wide range of samples covers way
more than the full GM soundset, and also
includes an expressive stereo panned
piano. Many of these samples are {the
same as} used in professional Korg
keyboards like the Trinity, M1, O1/W, N-
Series and SGproX.
Each processor offers 47 different effects
types with real-time modulation control.
The iS40 offers up to 4 effects at the same
time with a number of routing configurations,
perfect for mixing the group of instruments
used within each Arrangement or sequence.
Styles are the musical basis for auto-
accompaniment - they contain the recorded
performances for each part.
This is the largest number of Styles ever
offered in a Korg i-Series instrument, and all
are newly-created by experts in the field.
They are amazingly musical and never
sound "canned" or mechanical!
