KORG Announces Kronos LS – A Lighter Addition To The Flagship Series

Korg’s powerhouse Kronos is now available with a Light-Touch keyboard, packing the power of a full-sized performance synth and amazingly responsive action into a 40-pound (18 kg) package.

Equipped with nine versatile sound engines, up to 16 simultaneous effects, and 16 part combinations, the Kronos LS offers everything it’s fully-weighted counterparts do, with a meticulously designed action that lends to any playing style.

The mechanism of the keyboard has been redesigned to allow for better velocity, no matter how complex the chord or phrase is. It’s perfect for playing piano or electric piano in any style, and has become the prime choice in keyboardists globally throughout the years.

Kronos LS also ships with the most recent operating system, offering new Quick Layer/Split via the large, color Touchscreen. Splits and Layers can also be saved on the spot into a Combination, saving players considerable editing time and providing more flexibility for live situations.
