Korg Krome 73 Platinum Limited Edition 73-Key Music Workstation Keyboard
Brand
KORG
Professional keyboardists, live session players, and touring music producers require an all-in-one hardware workstation that provides high-fidelity, unlooped acoustic instruments, an extended playing range, and a fully realized MIDI sequencer without adding unmanageable weight to their travel rig. Standard 61-key layouts can limit expansive two-handed playing and complex splits, while fully weighted 88-key models are often too heavy and cumbersome for rapid transport. The Korg Krome 73 Platinum Limited Edition Music Workstation masterfully satisfies these production demands. By combining an exclusive mirror-finish platinum chassis with a 3.8 GB Kronos-derived PCM sample engine, an extended 73-note semi-weighted layout, and an intuitive 7-inch color TouchView interface, this limited workstation balances definitive professional sound with an agile, gig-ready layout.
The KORG KROME (73-Key) Platinum Edition is a prestigious, limited-run workstation designed for musicians who require the versatility of an extended keyboard range paired with a sophisticated, high-end platinum aesthetic. Beyond its striking finish, this model features Korg’s acclaimed EDS-X sound engine and a premium semi-weighted action keybed, offering the perfect balance between piano-style expression and synth-friendly playability. With a large 7-inch TouchView interface and comprehensive production tools, the KROME Platinum 73 is the ideal centerpiece for producers and stage performers who demand professional-grade power and a look that commands attention.
High-Definition Sound Engine
At the core of the KROME Platinum 73 is the EDS-X sound engine, which leverages massive, unlooped sample sets. This includes deeply multisampled piano sounds that capture the natural resonance and decay of a concert grand, alongside crystal-clear electric pianos, drums, and orchestral instruments. By focusing on the sounds most vital to modern professional music, the KROME ensures your performances have the depth and clarity required for high-end studio and stage applications.
Intuitive Workflow and Composition
The 7-inch color TouchView display serves as the nerve center for the KROME Platinum, offering rapid, touch-based navigation for complex sound layering, splitting, and effects management. Coupled with a 16-track MIDI sequencer and an intuitive "Combination" mode, the KROME Platinum 73 allows you to build sophisticated arrangements in real-time, effectively serving as an all-in-one production hub for songwriters and producers.
Versatile Performance and Feel
The 73-key semi-weighted keybed provides a satisfying, tactile response that is balanced perfectly for both piano playing and rapid-fire synth or organ work. This makes the KROME Platinum 73 an excellent choice for players who need an expanded note range without the added bulk of an 88-key hammer-action model. Finished in a sophisticated platinum aesthetic, this workstation provides a professional-grade synthesis environment wrapped in a design that is truly worthy of the spotlight.
