Authentic acoustic piano feel
Korg gave the Be their Natural Weighted Hammer Action (NH) keyboard that provides the realistic feel of the hammers on a real acoustic piano, in which the low register is heavier, and the high register is lighter. The keybed is sensitive and responds to nuanced touch, while three touch control settings let you fine-tune the action to your particular playing style.
World-class grand pianos
The B2 delivers a total of 12 sounds that cover a diverse array of genres, including five opulent pianos from Korg’s new state-of-the-art piano engine, as well as rich and distinctive electric piano, organ, harpsichord, and string sounds. The world-class German grand, coveted by concert pianists for its massive, expressive power, offers stunning vibrancy and dynamic range, soaring highs, and thundering, highly detailed lows. Korg includes the majestic German Concert Piano as well as Classic Piano with a complex, delicate complex timbrality. There are three impeccable Italian pianos onboard the B2, represented by the lively Italian Concert Piano, a bright Jazz Piano, and a gorgeously resonant Ballad Piano.
Electric pianos and organs
Immediately recognizable from decades of iconic records, the B2’s electric piano responds to your playing dynamics and even simulates key-off sounds. You’ll find the organ sounds to be perfect for rock and jazz, and as a bonus, the B2 offers the sublime sound of a real sampled pipe organ.
