Korg M3 61-Key Music Workstation Keyboard The powerful EDS (Enhanced Definition Synthesis) sound generator is derived from the OASYS` HD-1 engine design, and it also has advanced second-generation KARMA functionality in addition to a multi-purpose control surface. The M3 music workstation/sampler is a 61-key model that uses a proprietary semi-weighted synth action keyboard developed by Korg for great playing feel and expressive aftertouch response. Adding innovations such as the new concept of virtualized hardware that allows tighter integration with DAW systems, Drum Tracks which provide a instant groove to play along with, and the Korg Komponent System concept that facilitates more flexible system construction, the M3 music workstation/sampler opens an exciting page in music making.
