The Korg EK-50 61-Key Touch Sensitive Entertainer Arranger Keyboard is a powerful, all-in-one music creation instrument designed for players at all skill levels — from beginners to seasoned performers. Equipped with 61 full-size velocity-sensitive keys, the EK-50 provides expressive playability with adjustable touch response (soft, medium, hard, plus fixed) to suit different styles. Its Stereo PCM sound generator delivers rich tone with over 700 instrument sounds and 41 drum kits, covering everything from piano and strings to synths and percussion.
What sets the EK-50 apart is its automatic accompaniment engine with 280 auto-accompaniment styles and more than 170 keyboard sets that create full, band-like backing tracks using just left-hand chords. Each style includes intros, variations, fills, and endings, allowing effortless performance across genres. A bright backlit LCD display and intuitive controls make navigation easy, while Set List mode helps organize performance material for gigs or practice.
This arranger also features a 12-track sequencer capable of recording up to 999 songs, letting you compose and arrange music with layered parts. A built-in MP3/WAV audio player allows you to play along with favorite tracks directly from a USB storage device. Connectivity includes USB-A for device memory, USB-B for MIDI/host, line outputs, headphone output, and audio input for external sources.
Integrated 20W stereo speakers (10W × 10W) deliver clear, full-range sound, making this keyboard great for rehearsal, performance, or home practice without external amplification. The EK-50 runs on the included AC adapter or on batteries for portable playing. With built-in effects, split modes, transpose functions, and advanced playback features, this keyboard is both a creative tool and a performer’s companion.
