    I know this video is old but guys, I’ve grown up using this keyboard and I cannot express how good this keyboard is. It’s probably a lot cheaper these days too.
    This got me into composing music and even as a 12 year old I made some basic pieces (as you can see from some of my first videos on my channel).
    Awesome keyboard, if your watching this wondering if you should give the keyboard a go then definitely consider it. I would recommend trying to get one with enough keys as when I switch from my piano to the keyboard I tend to run out of keys to play.

    My PC software has made all of my previous Korg keyboards obsolete-which is why I sold them all,but Korg has finally made a workstation that integrates well with DAW's and they did it on a budget and NO ONE ELSE has done this.
    Yamaha tried this with their MOX series and they failed miserably,so I have to give Korg credit for them actually making me reconsider buying another hardware workstation and for me personally,I'd LOVE to have a 73-key midi controller!

I'm a sound designer in my 40s and I've worked with synths since the CZ101 came out so I guess I could say that I really mean what I say. Absolutely masterful keyboard playing and an excellent rundown on this new Korg.

    I was looking into the Yamaha S90XS, but after listening to the demo of the Krome, I was hooked. The pianos are outstanding, the string sounds sounded kinda' thin tho, but for the price of the S90XS, you just can't beat the Korg. I'm planning on getting the 88 key version and midied it to my Fantom XR since my Roland has the best orchestral sounds. The price alone is worth the look at the Krome. I think Korg will sell a lot of them. I'm sold!!

      7 years later... did you ever figure it out? I’ve had so many issues with my Korg (while still learning the basics) that I’ve not made it too far into the functions. It can be a little daunting to have SO many features, but not be able to simplify basic navigational needs... I also had to replace the internal micro SD cared after a screen error locked me out of use - and many of my voices (primarily breathy or soft voices, and most the SFX folder do not work (no sound when I touch the key). It’s been quite the headache, I wish I could solve this korg riddle and put her to better use 😪

    I am educating myself: MIDI, harmonic series, harmonic properties of fundamental waves such as sine wave, sawtooth, square, and white noise, different filter types, SysEx. sampling, how filtering is needed there and anti aliasing. If you knew how sloppily USB is implemented, you'd never use it. At this price range I'd demand 16-channel IEEE1934 option (like on Motif XF) and some physical modeling synthesis onboard. ROMplers where cool in late '80s. Didn't realize that they are cool again :)

    Hi Robert, The answer to your question is no, you don't need the computer at all. Some people use programs for their combinations, song creation, EQ, etc. Keyboards are just easier to hook up to computers these days is all, and that was just being pointed out. Only reason I ever hooked up a keyboard to my comp was to sequence songs, but this and most keyboards have great built in sequencers so no need for me (or anyone really). It does make certain things easier and some great apps out there.

    IEEE1394 is not dead. It's a format that was designed for "real-time" data transmission with processor on both sides (that's why you don't have FireWire sticks). USB is not synchronized data transfer, which is of course fast (50 thousand times faster than original 5-din MIDI) but the reason we get latency, is that it is that: unsynchronized. So, it basically it works like spasmic bursts of vomit. Why is it alive? Cost. USB is the cheapest interface imaginable.

Rivals my Yamaha Motif XS6 which is saying a lot. Even the Greek Keyboardist Zorbo, Yani, uses these bad boys... String acoustics are fantastic, guitars are amazing, and the horns and pretty much everything is there. Can load the M1 sounds, and Triton sounds.

    IEEE1394 interface is the latest in Yamaha Motif XF option offering, simply replacing mLan. mLan was great thing, but too proprietary. Thunderbolt is probably meant to replace FireWire. USB-3 is something that my father is impressed about :) I like to balance the use of technology. Chasing the Joneses by getting more and more gigabytes of everything will only make your kids laugh at you when they'll operate in petabytes with pricing of 1 cent per 120PB :)

    $1200 for a 61-key plastic box,with a tiny screen,64 note polyphony,355MB of ROM and nearly non-existent PC integration...which is makes the Korg Krome such a gem of a keyboard.

    I've owned most of workstation of all major brand for the last 25 or 30 years too, including Korg main ones such M1, Wavestation, Trinity, Triton Extreme, Oasys, M3, etc... And I use them to make music as my day job, I even worked for a keyboard company few years ago, so I definitely know where we come from but I also know what we could get as today...
    8 years ago, I had better sound than the Krome with the Open Labs neKo or the Receptor... They are STILL archaic and way behind technology.

    I'm with you on that one dude,as I've had the same thoughts,but being that I've wasted so much money on previous Korgs that had no PC integration-as well as pissing away coin on the horrific MOX,I'm at least glad for the Krome,for what it is.
    As it is now,I have 2 computers running Reason 6.5 and Presonus S1 with NI Komplete 6...so whatever's missing from the Krome,I've got it covered on my computers.
