Korg M50 Review

If you want a keyboard with it all, you’re looking at the right keyboard. The M50 has every sound and loop you could hope for.

Synths, modulation, LFOs,  filters, drum tracks, loops,dual polyphonic arpeggiator, sequencers – all packed in and controlled with a sleek TouchView display and clean board. The Korg M50 is an awesome workstation.

Some standout sounds to me were the strings and pads. Just beautiful. The filters as well were just too much fun to play with.

My only concern with this keyboard is that you could very well lose so much time of your day jamming on it and getting caught up. There’s just too much good noise that can come out of this thing.

Control of the keyboard is handled through the touch screen and a series of 4 knobs, whose function is determined by different buttons.

One important distinction: there are 2 different versions of this. The 61-key version uses semi-weighted Natural Touch keys, while the 88-key version utilizes Real Weighted Hammer Action 3 (RH3).

This isn’t the biggest deal. It can make a difference, mainly when you are playing more traditional sounding piano style and soloist type music. However, other than that, you difference should not be that much of a factor at all.

Well, you shouldn’t just take my word for it! Check out the video below to hear some of the Korg M50 in action.

Our friends at Sweetwater have set up a nice demo:

Pretty sweet, right?!

Let’s highlight the main pros and cons here:

Pros:

  • Endless beautiful options. You’ll never get bored with this thing.
  • Sleek, easy to use design and TouchView screen.
  • Built-in effects to customize your sound.

Cons:

  • No speakers included – amplifier or headphones required. (This is ok, most built-in speakers don’t sound great anyway.)
  • Time consuming! (joke)
