M50-61 is the M3 XPanded's inner child, reborn; delivering performance, portability and price. With incredible new sounds; juicy combis; splits and layers; ace effects; Drum Tracks; poly-arpeggiators; classic sequencing tools; TouchView control, and editing software, it all adds up to an sexy, invigorating instrument that could only come from KORG. Over twenty years of category-defining workstation expertise beats in the heart of the M50 Music Workstation. Just as the M3 borrowed elements from the legendary OASYS, the M50 captures all the sonic firepower of the M3 XPanded, distilled into a performance instrument that is second to none. The M50-61 is equipped with Korg's new semi-weighted Natural Touch keyboard. This fast and responsive synthesizer keybed facilitates expressive and dynamic performing. The angled control panel, retro-style buttons, chord triggers, assignable controllers and supreme portability all contribute to the M50's performance styling.
