Korg Redefines the Stage Piano. Again.
Equipped with seven mighty sound engines, impeccable RH3 fully weighted hammer action, and advanced controller functionality, the Korg Grandstage has been a huge hit at Sweetwater. Now, Korg raises the performance bar yet again with Grandstage X, a next-gen flagship stage piano featuring a sleek new design with an enhanced user interface and even better sound quality. Korg is on the cutting edge of evolving digital piano technology, and they've packed their latest stage piano with the best of it. Leveraging the power of their SGX-2 acoustic piano engine, the Grandstage X's acoustic piano sounds are stunning: natural, responsive, and lavishly detailed. The EP-1 electric piano engine delivers a selection of epic EPs, all infinitely tweakable. With a total of 500 sounds on tap — including tonewheel organs, vintage analog synths, and classic keys — Grandstage X has you covered for any live gig or studio session. At once a world-class stage piano and a masterful controller, the Korg Grandstage X will elevate your performances to new heights.

Seven sound engines, infinite possibilities
The Korg Grandstage X ships with over 500 onboard sounds. From acoustic instruments to gritty analog synths, Grandstage X's seven synthesis engines can provide every sound you need. The SGX-2 acoustic piano engine captures every nuance of six world-class German and Japanese grand pianos, from damper resonance to mechanical noise. Then there's the EP-1 electric piano engine, which uses Multi-Dimensional Synthesis to let you tweak, morph, and totally customize the six included EPs. Take it from Sweetwater — these two synthesis engines are worth the price of admission alone — and they're just the beginning!
Organs, modeling, and more
The Grandstage X includes a trio of organ sound engines. The CX-3 tonewheel engine reproduces Korg's classic combo organ, introduced in 1980. The Vox organ engine delivers the sound of the legendary transistor organ of the 1960s. The Compact transistor organ sound engine simulates other compact organs that helped shape the sound of '60s rock. Also onboard the Grandstage X is Korg's powerful AL-1 analog modeling sound engine, which serves up beautiful reed and brass sounds. The sonic bounty is rounded out by the HD-1 PCM sound engine, which covers a variety of sounds that include classic keyboard instruments, an 8-level multi-sampled clavinet, as well as harpsichord, pipe organ, Mellotron, and the distinctive bite of an FM piano. Onstage or in the studio, the Grandstage X is all you'll need to ace the gig.
