Vintage Instrument Sounds

Korg have created the SV-1 to perfectly emulate a range of vintage sounding instruments such as electric/acoustic pianos, organs, strings and synthesizers allowing the user to truly create authentic vintage style tracks. Korg have meticulously sampled each of the core instruments to ensure a realistic and responsive tone whilst the addition of tine, key-off, damper and hammer noise dynamics help to create an authentic sound.

Vintage FX & Amp Modelling

The Korg SV-1 incorporates a range of professional effects at various signal processing stages to allow a truly unique and flourished tonality. Whether you require reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, compression the SV-1 has you covered.

A truly unique feature for the SV-1 is the addition of the Valve Reactor technology which allows extremely realistic amplifier modelling. With a vast library of amp models and cabinets included the Korg SV-1 can use the Valve Reactor technology to add colour, fuzz or even full blown drive to your tone.

Interface & Connectivity

The performance-friendly interface gives you quick access to every essential control via the front panel with no confusing menus or multiple button presses. A mix of rotary knobs, car radio-style selector buttons and LEDs make the SV-1 simple and intuitive.

Incorporating into your setup with balanced XLR and 1/4" outputs, L and R audio inputs, MIDI In and MIDI Out jacks and a USB MIDI port, the SV-1 also has the option for three pedal connections with a Damper pedal (included), which responds to half-pedalling.

The included Editor/Librarian software lets you dig a little depeer into your new instrument by providing graphic-based programming and access to certain parameters not available on the front panel. Design, share and swap your favourite settings with other players and update your SV-1 with new sounds added by Korg.
