01 Introduction
Welcome to Pa700!
Many thanks, and congratulation on purchasing the KORG Pa700 Professional
Arranger! We’re sure it’ll give you countless hours of great tones that will
feel as good as they sound.
Slim, powerful and easy to use
With its elegant cabinet, Pa700 provides a professional and stylish look, that
will be much appreciated on stage or at home. The main panel’s logical layout ensures easy access to buttons, knobs and all controls.
Using your Pa700 is easy, thanks to the touch screen and the clean, clearly
laid-out, modern user interface, based on icons reproducing real objects in
the real world.
The real solo and band experience
Pa700 has been designed to assist you equally well during live performance
and songwriting. The detailed natural sounds and finely crafted styles have
been created by some of the finest musicians in the music industry. You will
feel you are playing in a real band – no matter what your musical tastes are.
The naturally responsive 61-note keyboard is designed for musicians of all
levels, from beginners to demanding keyboard players, and gives you a completely authentic feel and full control of expression.
More than just recorded sounds
The huge, realistic collection of classic and contemporary keyboard, band
and orchestral sounds, includes a multi-layer stereo grand piano (with damper and body resonance) and electric pianos; wind instruments, basses and
stunning acoustic and electric guitars; plus a digital drawbars organ with
leakage and key on/off noises.
Sounds have been recorded with the most up-to-date technologies, and
KORG’s own proprietary EDS-X (Enhanced Definition Synthesis-eXpanded)
sound engine allows for fine detail to be accurately reproduced. The integrated sample and sound editor allows to fill the vast user memory with
newly created or imported sounds.
Introduction |3
All these authentic sounds become alive with KORG’s DNC (Defined Nuance
Control) system, allowing the performer to accurately and expressively introduce the most subtle nuances and sound articulation. For example, the
joystick and assignable switches can introduce the growl of a saxophone,
breath elements found in trumpet, clarinet and harmonica, and add authenticity to the pizzicato and bowed sounds of a string section. You will even
hear keys opening when saxophone notes are going up, and closing when
going down!
Listen the natural way
Each Pa700 sound go through separate EQs and studio-quality effect processors, that further refine your sound before coming through high-quality stereo audio outputs. Effects run from the standard reverbs and delays
through to the more unusual effects (like a Vocoder), realistic amp simulators and carefully recreated vintage effects. The final mastering effects
make the sound louder, clearer, fuller, and more polished.
The sound of the super high-fidelity integrated speakers is clear and detailed
even at the lowest volume level, for the pleasure of the late-night rehearsing
musician.
A band always ready to play with you
Ultra-realistic sounds in the Pa700 are always ready to play along with you,
in the music style best fitting your music. The high number of included Styles
will satisfy any music genre, but can also be expanded by adding new Styles.
You may also create your Styles, customize the existing ones, or easily convert MIDI Songs to Styles.
There are eight accompaniment parts which will follow your chords. The
Auto Fill function will automatically choose a Fill for you. You can play in the
simplest way or with the rich harmonization of a competent jazz player. We
have programmed them to sound natural, and give you the feeling of a real
band, ready to play with you at any time.
The convenient Chord Sequencer function records your chord progressions
on-the-fly allowing the users to immediately play along with their own chord
sequence, which is useful not only for practice, but for freeing up a hand
while performing live. Chord Sequences can also be saved in Styles and
SongBook Entries for easy recall.
Play and write songs
You can play Songs in MID and MP3 formats. With both Songs and Styles,
you can show lyrics for the singer and chords for your fellow guitarist. Any
MIDI Song track can be converted into a readable score. Markers allow for
4| Let’s start!
jumping back to a passage you wish to repeat, for example in a piece you are
studying or rehearsing.
Use the video output to display lyrics or score on an external monitor, making it perfect for karaoke or band leading.
You can record a MIDI Song using a full-featured Sequencer, or by using the
Styles to record your live performance. Even easier, just record what you
sing and play (including MP3 Songs) as an MP3 file, and listen to it anywhere
you like.
Your music book
What is a huge collection of Styles and Songs, without an effective form of
organization? Pa700 has the one most known to musicians: the SongBook,
a music database allowing for fast song retrieving based on name, artist,
genre or tempo. Styles and Songs are easily recalled by the SongBook.
Particularly useful for live use, the SongBook can assign songs from any custom Set List to dedicated buttons on the control panel. Your entire show will
be under your fingers, with immediate access to any Style, Song and Sounds
needed for your performance.
The SongBook can even be edited from a personal computer through our
free editor. It can also be synchronized with most modern tablets to become
your handy external digital music sheet reader (third-party software needed).
Sing naturally
Connect a dynamic microphone, and adjust parameters such as the EQ,
Compressor, Gate, Reverb and Delay to make the vocals sound smooth and
studio-produced. The Vocal Remover will even let you remove the voice from
MP3 Songs, and let you sing along with them.
Refine your guitar’s pure sound
Guitar FXs let you add pedal and studio effects to a guitar connected to the
dedicated Guitar input on the back of the instrument. We selected some of
the best guitar effects from the KORG collection, to add the sound of alltube amplifiers, realistic distortion, chorus or delay pedals, and the highestquality studio reverbs.
Introduction |5
Creative control with the KAOSS effects
KAOSS effects give you creative control on your performance. From subtle
morphing between Variations and Drum Kit types, fine mixing between accompaniment Sounds, live reshaping of ongoing rhythms, to the most radical note-crunching effects of DJ heritage, to tape delay and arpeggios, you
can add ‘liquid mixing’ to any Style or MIDI Song with the aid of easy-to-use
computer-assisted composition features. Break the boundaries of preset
music!
Open to the world, ready to the future
The use of standard file formats, like MID or MP3 for songs, or WAV and AIFF
for samples, opens a world of possibilities when exchanging files. The USB
ports allow for connecting Pa700 to any external storage device or personal
computer, smartphone or tablet without the need for a dedicated MIDI interface. However, you can connect Pa700 to any existing MIDI musical instrument, thanks to its complete set of programmable MIDI ports.
Oriental edition
The Pa700 ORIENTAL version contains all the functionality of the standard
Pa700, and adds a mini-keyboard on the left side, which can be used to customize quarter tone scales and quickly access scale presets. In addition to
the standard content, Pa700 ORIENTAL also contains Sounds and Styles that
are specific to Middle Eastern music genres. Ouds, bouzuks, kanouns, various percussion instruments, and many more sounds are joined by dozens of
extra Styles that are suitable for traditional and modern music.
