The KORG Keystage MIDI controller is an impactful keyboard for producers and performers. As the first controller to fully adopt the latest MIDI 2.0 protocol, the Keystage puts unparalleled music-making power at your fingertips. Featuring a newly developed semi-weighted keybed and ultratactile touch response, the Keystage empowers musicians to reach new heights of creativity through an immersive playing experience. Beyond the feel and feedback of a highly responsive keyboard, the KORG Keystage supports both channel and polyphonic aftertouch, as well as MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE), to transmit the subtleties of an expressive performance in the most natural and musical way. The KORG Keystage offers Ableton Live integration out of the box and is seamlessly compatible with most major DAWs. It also doubles as a USB audio interface with direct stereo outputs for an array of configurations on stage or in the studio. Intuitive, advanced, sleek and portable, the KORG Keystage is the ultimate MIDI keyboard for artists in any genre.
