3. Main features
Grand piano-like touch
The SP-500 features an RH2 (Real Weighted Hammer Action 2) keyboard, which pro-
vides a differing key weight in each of four keyboard ranges, just as on a grand piano.
Diverse sounds
Use the keyboard to play 412 different sounds (including 16 drum kits) produced by
Korg’s proprietary stereo sampling system.
You can use the Layer function to play two sounds simultaneously, or the Split function
to divide the keyboard and play two different sounds in separate ranges.
Versatile rhythm styles
The automatic accompaniment styles include various rhythm styles from all around
the world. You can enjoy adding the musical flavors of different countries to your play-
ing.
Effects
Two digital effect processors (37 effect types) are built-in, letting you add reverberation
to create the impression of playing in a concert hall, or apply chorus to create fuller
sounds.
Pedal effects
The Damper pedal jack allows connection of a damper pedal, indispensable for piano
performance, and a Assignable Switch jack allows you to connect a soft pedal or other
switch. If a separately sold DS-1H damper pedal is connected, you can take advantage
of the half-pedal function that adjusts the amount of effect by the depth to which you
press the pedal.
Metronome
The included metronome is available at the touch of a switch. The volume is also
adjustable.
Recorder
The built-in recorder is as easy to use as a tape recorder. Since you can record five
tracks in addition to the keyboard, you can even input small chamber ensembles or
band scores.
Of course you can record the automatic accompaniment by itself if desired.
Internal memory can store up to 100 songs, which are preserved even when the power
is turned off.
Step recording
The step recording function lets you record an automatic accompaniment by inputting
chords and panel operations one by one.
This function makes it easy to record an accompaniment from sheet music with chord
symbols even if you are not a skilled pianist.
