The recorder allows you to record up to 12 tracks (4 keyboard parts and 8 accompaniment parts) and your recording can be even be saved as a MIDI file. Everything is played back through the built-in speakers, but you can also connect external speakers or a set of headphones.

Wrote the following about Korg EK-50 61-note keyboard

voldoet volledig aan de verwachting . Zeer mooi vol geluid , prachtige instrumenten en begeleidingen . mooie afwerking met hoogwaardige toetsen en controllers . Het klavier geeft een goed gevoel van een pianoklavier .zeker in verhouding met vroegere ervaringen op casio en klassiek orgel.
Ik ben zeer tevreden

Nu ruim een week in mijn bezit en ik ben erg te spreken over dit apparaat. Prima bouwkwaliteit, prima aanslag en goeie klant. Speakers zijn van prima kwaliteit. Heb nog genoeg uit te vogelen om hem echt goed te leren kennen maar mijn dochter en ik hebben er veel lol van. Via USB aan de PC hangen en de audio daar verder bewerken was ook een makkie.

Één piepklein minpunt. De lessenaar is niets anders dan een metalen open boog met een piep klein stukje plastic aan de onderkant. Je iPad valt er doorheen in landscape stand en ook geprinte muziek heeft nauwelijks enige houvast.
