Testing Korg K61

[echediaz]

dude one question its possible to load some new sounds from the computer ? like korg x50 ? , i mean i can install new sounds on the keyboard using a software ? thanks

[EitB91]

can you compare feeling of the k61 to other korg keyboards? (microx, m50)?

[vitalf]

@EitB91 Im not sure, this is the only one i have, never tried other controllers.

But i can tell this controller has synth action weight, full size keys.

Its an entry budget controller.

[javiceres]

Bravo, trully beautyful.

[realjuvelive]

how much is this dude ? and can i play this keyboard without computer or amp or any other things ?

[vitalf]

Thanks, but realjuvelive is right, this video is old lol

i dont know if the K series is still alive! 8)

But, again,

thanks!

[dimaflour]

nice!

[realjuvelive]

i like it how much is it ? i think that's from 2007!

[maiden1690]

hey dude I have a K49 but I never learned to use it...I play in a metal band and I use a really old key board I wanna know if there is a way I can use it in the band somehow

[vitalf]

@maiden1690

Hey wazzup, yes, you can use it with a laptop/notebook computer, a DAW and an amplifier.

Cheers!

does it has speaker

or i have to connect it to somethin

[BaronvonCase]

It has no sounds or speakers: it has to be connected to a computer which will have a speaker, or you'll have to connect it to a sound module which must then be hooked up to speakers. I think the Korg K61P has sounds though.

[spinnit83]

how about keYs touching is it good?? is it liked piano touching?

[BaronvonCase]

Nah, about as far from the hammer action of a piano as you can get. I've played around with the keys at music stores, and they're totally unweighted (which is what I prefer). Since I've never heard one of these with sound, I want to know how expressive it is (like the range of loud and soft), and it looks from this video like it's very good in that area! Great playing OP!

[maisquisuije]

do you konw if ti' s possible to connect the korg k61to a Electric guitar amplifier ?

[vitalf]

Only the K61P wich has some internal sounds; the K61 is a midi controller only, it doesnt have sounds; needs an external sound generator, like a synth rack or a computer.

I hope that answer your question.

[vitalf]

Hello there, well,

latency dependes on pc hardware, but a decent pc can run a host without latency (the host is where you load the instruments). Also you must use Asio4all to ensure that.

I hope that helps, if you have any questions you just ask me :)

[warblesongs]

It's not required that you use Asio4all! If you're having issues with your hardware and it's native drivers, then yes, certainly worth a try. Otherwise, I wouldn't say "you must use". I've been successful with my Motif 8 with Sonar 7 using my Echo Layla 3G PCI hardware.

[vitalf]

I assume that most of people don't have audio hardware, that's why the asio4all tip. That pci hardware you have supports asio 2.0, means no latency.

Anyway, is good to see some experienced people on YT!

Greetings!

[Belgrado85]

Now I'm sure! I'm going to buy that MIDI controller! :))

[neutron7]

does it have connecters on the side or back?

[anooj3434]

is this the k61p or just the regular k61?

[vitalf]

Hello there, sry for the late answer, Its the k61; i like this midi controller, has good response; also,it comes with mod and pitch wheel, 2 pots, 1 slider, joystick mod (vector), two switches and octave up and down function. Im gonna to upload some house music i produce later.

[anooj3434]

how do you like the korg k-61? I'm thinking about getting it but i want to know about it a little more.
