General

Kurzweil can look back on decades of products that all have received respect and appreciation by professional keyboard players. In fact, Kurzweil's first disappointment has yet to be made, and will probably never happen. In any case, the Kurzweil Forte SE stage piano is another one of those gems that would warm the heart of any pianist's heart. With these 88 weighted, hammer-action keys, you can live out all your piano aspirations. Also, this piano has aftertouch, a unique feature for this kind of instrument.

The Sound of the Kurzweil Forte SE

It's the sound Kurzweil has always delivered with care. Its FlashPlay technology ensures that gigabytes of sounds can instantly be played without waiting. The German D Grand Piano Expansion and the Kore 64 Expansion are joining the party again for the very highest in professional sound quality. Also, a new grand piano is present - a Japanese model. You can take full advantage of the KSR (Kurzweil String Resonance) and the KB3 (an organ tone wheel simulator). When you feel adventurous and want to manipulate your own sounds, then the Forte SE won't get in your way.

Further Possibilities

With a case around it, you've got a powerfully beautiful stage instrument. The pianos - and all the other sounds for that matter - sound sublime. The Forte SE is built to last, and can handle the (inevitable) knock. The Forte SE feels right at home in the studio too, with eight MIDI zones that make this stage piano a top-notch master keyboard. Its polyphony is no less than 128 voices, so bring on those lengthy arrangements! If need be, you can use any of the eight arpeggiators in a multi. It's also equipped with USB, in the form of storage and MIDI. Simply put: the Forte SE is an exceptionally professional instrument!
