Korg LP-380U 88-Key Slim Digital Piano with Speakers – Black

The LP-380U is designed with a style to match your interior decor. Merely 14″ deep, it is slim enough to fit anywhere. The wooden key cover is flat on top, allowing the instrument to blend elegantly into your room when you’re not playing. Keeping safety in mind, the cover uses a soft-landing mechanism to ensure that it closes gently.

To reproduce the playing feel of an acoustic piano as closely as possible, the sound switches between four piano samples according to your playing dynamics. From subtle touches to powerful crescendos, the sound will respond realistically to your playing.

The Classic Piano and Grand Piano sounds realistically reproduce the damper resonances that occur when you hold down the damper pedal of an acoustic piano, making the overall sound of the piano even more pleasant and enjoyable to play.

The Real Weighted Hammer Action 3 (RH3) keyboard reproduces the same playing experience as on a grand piano. With improved response to repeated keystrokes, even rapid passages can be reproduced without impairing the expression of the performer.

There’s also a Key Touch Control function that lets you choose one of three levels to specify how your playing dynamics will affect the sound, allowing you to personalize the instrument to your own keyboard touch. With a view toward the environment, no lead is used in the hammers of the keyboard.

A total of thirty expressive and realistic sounds include 5 acoustic pianos,1 electric grand, 6 electric pianos, 1 harpsichord, 2 clavinets, 1 vibraphone, 1 marimba, 1 acoustic guitar, 3 jazz organs, 3 pipe organs, 3 strings, 3 choirs.

The six electric pianos cover the sounds widely used in pop music of the ’60s and ’70s, as well as some of the tones that are highly regarded in soul music.

The Layer Mode lets you play two sounds together, and the Partner Mode divides the keyboard into left and right regions, so that two people can play the same range of pitches at the same time.

You also have a choice of nine different temperaments, supporting historically authentic performances with period instrument ensembles.

There are three effects: Brilliance adjusts the brightness of the tone, Reverb simulates the natural ambience (reverberation) of a concert hall, and Chorus adds spaciousness.

The 2 x 22W amplifier boasts the highest output in its class, properly reproducing the expressive piano sounds with rich tone, sonorous lows, sparkling highs, and gorgeous resonance. Two 4″ speakers are placed inside the cabinet, allowing the sound to resonate for even richer depth. Placing the speakers below the keyboard creates the sensation that the sound is enveloping the entire piano, providing even greater realism.

You can use a USB cable (available separately) to connect the piano’s USB port to your iOS smartphone/tablet and use the LP-380U as a MIDI keyboard to play an external sound module on your mobile device. Your performance on the LP-380 can be recorded as MIDI data on your iOS smartphone/tablet, and music from your smartphone/tablet can be played back through the speakers of the built-in speaker system.

The LP-380U includes all three pedals that are normally found on a concert grand piano, including support for realistic half-pedaling on both the damper and soft pedals. These pedals are affixed to the LP-380U in the perfect position for an authentic piano-playing experience.

The built-in metronome lets you adjust the time signature, tempo, and volume. It also lets you use a bell sound as the accent.

You can use the Line Out jack (3.5mm stereo) to connect the instrument to your amplified speaker system or recording device.
