Does it have applause sound and what is it if it's included? My roland Go! Keys 3 has a applause sound that actually sounds like a real game show audience. I wonder if Korg's applause sound is just applause or has crowd cheering.
Hey Bro , I Finally Made It To The Korg-EK50 , The Sound Is Awesome 👏 You Taught Me More In This Video Than The Manual I’ve Had For 10 Months. You Are An Awesome Teacher Jermey ! Mad Love And Respect My Brother 💚
Go Korg! My only gripe with the layout is octave shift. Octave shift shouldn’t be used with the Shift key. The Transpose/Octave should be reversed. If you’re playing piano having to press Shift prior to Octave will be a problem. If I didn’t already have the Korg MicroArranger, I’d pick one of these up. Looking forward to your full review.
Love your tutorials. They are very helpful. Would it be possible to show how I import different rhythms onto the EK50 ? Also, where do I get them from? I need some marching band tempos. I hope you can help. Incidentally, my wife and I just got back from Singapore! Loved the place; especially Garden by The Bay..
I'm hoping that some of these sounds can compete with the Yamaha SA1/2. and Roland supernatural sounds. Good starter review. I've always liked Korgs arrangers.Thanks Jeremy for this appetizer,Im hungry for more!
Hi Jeremy. Love your videos and find them very helpful. Is there a video on the Korg EK50 showing how to use the multi track recording and editing? If not, could you posibly cover this at some time.
Hi Jeremy now I know why you were so eager to sell your PSR E463... think you should have kept it, though, because it is really great for teaching and learning the basics of keyboard playing, it has nic sounds and is easy to use. As for this Korg, I love the ergonomics. It is great to have the iconic Korg joystick on an entry-level arranger. I also love the lighted buttons - it helps seeing which functions are switched on or off. The Line Out sockets are also very convenient. This keyboard is missing some basic functions, though, esp. the arpeggiator 😢😢😢 it is also a pity it doesn’t have a rhythm editor. I went to the city with the idea of coming back with a PSR E 463 and instead, tried a Casio CT-X3000 and I liked it so much that I decided to order one to be able to try it out quietly at home, it is due to arrive later this week 😎😎😎🎹🎼 I am dreaming of the perfect entry-level arranger: the functionalities and sound engine of the Casio CT-X5000, the ergonomics of the Korg EX50 with its joystick and big screen, the live Knobs and USB audio digital interface of the PSR E463. Wait and see... Will you do your own demo of the EX50? Can’t wait 😊
Yes, I read about your CTX adventures on psrtutorial.com. You will have lots of fun with it once you get used to the frustrating interface. I have ordered a set of EX-50. They have been hiding a demo unit for a few weeks in their shop. They can only officially release the unit to me in mid October. My channel is too small 😭
Hi Jeremy... do you always have to press the “fill” to change into another variation? if not... how will the transition sound? I had an old PSR where it didn’t have that “fill” button for transition. Thanks in advance for your response my brother!
I love this keyboard! I am in duo playing 80's music such as OMD, Erasure and such like. We can load it up with midi files and off we go! No need for drum machines and sequencers. Fantastic!
Hi Jeremy See , I just got the KORG EK-50 , I live in USA, could you explain how to install the new style. Or maybe you have the clip already... Thank you Happy New Year 2021
I might buy this one one day I love it. And the headphone jack looks like it will accommodate the standard size without using a 1/4 in adapter. Very incredible 😎😉😉😁
The cable hook prevents accidental power cord getting unplugged too. I have an X-50 which also has that. Such a stupidly ez2 implement feature that should be on all lightweight synth keyboards/modules
Hi Jeremy - thanks for a fantastic channel. You said somewhere that no keyboard can properly emulate the Hammond B3 & Leslie sound. I do agree, but as a church player I am looking for decent organ sounds & especially that rotary speaker sound. Our old Yamaha keyboard has pretty awful organ voices. Are the EK50’s organ sounds ok & can the joystick control the “rotary” speed? Thanks.
thanks for the nice demo. I'm about to buy an EK-50 from your local seller here. but I would like to know if I can load music set as professional arranger as at 800,700, I know this is not an oriental keyboard, but if one can at least have quarter tones here?
A question for the ek 50. If I hold down one key, and play other keys at the same time, is there anyway to make the initial key sound not be heard until any other keys that I'm playing are released?
I only have one simple Yes/No question: Can the Arranger part of the performance be output or saved in some way to midi? I'm looking frantically for pretty much any kind of these "Auto-Accompaniment" instrument which can do that to replace my trusty 30 y/o Roland KR model (which had that feature but is finally on its last breath).
There's a KORG EK 50 IN sold in India. I'm in the US. The EK 50IN is not available in the US. So, is it possible to download the Indian styles in the EK 50? Lemme know plz. Thanks.
So HOW do you do this? I press style button but nothing happens. "When playing in "Music Mode" (for instance Besame Mucho) is there a way to select a different style set/instrument?"
Hi sir. I am from India.I am still unsure which keyboard to buy.please tell me which one is good, Korg EK-50 and Yamaha psr i500. And please let me know whether EK-50 has an option of downloading India styles.
Hi Jeremy. I'm really interested in the EK50. Is the workstation something that I could create an 8 or 16 track recording using different voices, including drum voices without having to resort to DAW?
I still use a korg pa 800 I have had 2 since 2009 one for playing one for spares if only korg included the mic in and fx not bothered about this auto acc programmable Tx. Would suit me best for live
Thank You. First day and lots of fun; however, beware the lousy music stand is a wire frame and there is no way any book light can be attached. Will be building a piece of pexiglass to solidify the frame. So if you play out, and need a light for music - beware. Other than that, it is amazing.
Jeremy See A major plus point for Yamaha's PSR 463 compared to this then (for some users). This seems to have full pitch bend & modulation control which is lacking on the Yamaha. Look forward to your comparison videos.
But you still didn’t explain how do I record a song on the keyboard??? I can’t find it anywhere. Why doesn’t the record button do anything when I press on it??
Wow. Very well thought layout and key functions! Serious, half pedalling? $488.75 pre-order from City Music.. Hmm... Time for me to add a Korg to my keyboard collection? :) I wonder if I can add a USB controller to the host port to use as the lower register controller for the chords.
Im stuck between that Korg EK 50, (50L) and PSR-E463...is there some brand that combines +o- those 2 from "elementary features" within a ranging price between 400€ et 600€ ? coz i've been searching for days and weeks, Korg Kross 1 (doesnt exist anymore) instead of Kross 2, then is I3, then in Casio is Privia PX S3000, CT X5000 or X3000, then with Yamaha is E463 and EW410...always small/big models at same price ranging. its either something at 400€ or 800-850€ NEED HELP !
Suppose if i have a usb with 1000 songs in it.. is this keyboard will allow me to connect that usb and load those mp3 songs.. because i have read somewhere that it will take usb with only 99 mp3 song.. so please give clarification
Byw, Jeremy nice tutorials, i've been watching all of 'em x4 in a row, its really hard to find something when nothing is Perfect, its always neglicted to 95% ! and manufacturers rush things out...and as u many times said "its a piety that just to insert few buttons to polish the package, coz all syst programming already well-done !" However, i'd understand if one manufacturer like Yamaha does that, while others dont. Unfortunately, it isnt the case coz they all bring back that same mistakes over and over in any models' categories...I fully understand ur frustration about that, and it's same for all of us ;/
You can call me crazy. But think this Korg should be lighter, slimmer, fewer buttons in about 34". Lose the mod wheel for a pressure strip. Does Korg have one? Or I just might have to consider the Roland Go Keys. Or make me 49 key model with the mod wheel for playing IOS synths over usb!
Hi Jeremy, l liked your videos, because they are informative and objective in assessment. Can you help let me know whether EK 50 has onboard sustain button..? Thx
Hey I wonder if u can make a detail review about the Kurtzman K300 one ? I'm a begginer so i really need all reviews about buying a good keyboard for a new beginner
Can anyone tell me why I lost the sound on the keyboard when using the Grand Piano? There is a faint chord sound but I can't get it back to the Grand Piano sound.
Hello! Thanks for the review. Can someone please confirm that ek-50 cannot export (convert) internally recorded songs to mp3 or wav? Spend days and still cant find this pretty basic feature. It only saves MIDI to usb flash drive and nothing else it seems. Any help would be much appreciated!
@@JeremySee And if Indian sounds are not a priority? I am basically looking to buy something to learn how to play the piano. Indian sounds are not a priority at this point.
Yamaha need to desperately do something about the CT-X5000 & Korg EK-50. PSR-S675 is their ONLY chance in their near term. The PSR-S9XX/S7XX is another 3 years away from the next refresh. And the PSR-E463 was only recently released. The price of S675 has to come down at least 40% though.
Just got mine a few days ago, why can't I turn up volume of right hand sound like grand piano for example etc etc? I can hear a distant feint sound. I must have pressed something and I don't want to do a factory pre-set! When I just want to play without accompinment using Grand Piano or guitar trumpet etc, I can't get the volume of that sound to go loud at all. it's very feint. The accomp volume is fine but when I select another intrument to play without accomp I can barelt hear it. . I press the keyboard set and turn the wheel but that doesn't make any difference any suggestions? Would be grateful for any help.
I bought 2 EK-50's last year, I love the sound voices

There's no MIDI Does the usb need to go through a preamp or just usb into the computer?
Спасибо за обзор! Купил в 22 году, можно сказать последний! Это лучший инструмент за свои деньги, даже после 4 лет выпуска!
Sounds fantastic
I think this beats both the Yamaha PSR-E and Casio CT-X
