Compact but packed with effects!
The PX5D multi effect processor joins Korg's respected PANDORA series, famous for packing high-quality
sounds and ease of use into a pocket size unit. Easy to enjoy anywhere and anytime. The PX5D provides a total of 180 realistic
and wide-ranging effects created using Korg's world-acclaimed, proprietary "REMS" modeling technology. Included are simulations
that recreate classic vintage and modern, high-gain amps, as well as effects ranging from the familiar to the unique. Numerous
effects designed specifically for bass are also included, making the PX5D a great choice not only for the guitarist but for
the bassist as well. In a first for the PANDORA series, a USB-MIDI/USB audio interface is also provided, allowing you to use
the PX5D with your computer to transfer audio data or record into your DAW software. The inclusion of "Ableton Live Lite6
Korg Edition" recording software enables you to start recording as soon as you open the box. There's also dedicated editor/librarian
software that lets you edit and manage programs from your computer. All the classic features you have come expect from the
PANDORA are also present, to help the guitarist or bassist practice, perform and record.
An amazing 180 modeling
effects powered by "REMS" technology
Korg's proprietary "REMS" modeling technology, acclaimed by musicians around the world, is used to power the PANDORA's broad
variety of realistic effects. These effects include models of various guitar amps and bass amps, as well as both standard
effects and fresh new effects found only on the PANDORA.
Numerous guitar/bass amp modeling effects and synth
effects
The PX5D provides faithfully modeled simulations of the vintage and high-end amps sought after by guitarists and bassists.
Eighteen types for guitar and ten types for bass perfectly capture the warm and rich resonance of a tube amp. Realistically
reproduced models of many different cabinets and speakers are also provided, offering differences in speaker size and cabinet
structure for superb presence and depth. You can even combine cabinets and speakers freely with any amp models, letting you
experience combinations not possible on the original units themselves. There are also synth effects that let you create unique
and fresh new sounds, with three choices each for guitar and bass.
A great selection of effects with quality that rivals dedicated processor units
The PX5D gives you a wide selection
of effects, ranging from simulations of hard-to-find vintage units to fresh new sounds original to the PANDORA series. These
include, pickup modeling, to give your instrument a single-coil or dual-coil sound; an intelligent pitch shifter, letting
you automatically add harmonies to your performance; a talk effect that makes your guitar seem to speak; a slow attack effect
to simulate a violin or cello; a feedback effect that allows feedback performance techniques normally achievable only at high
volumes; a rotary speaker effect that varies the speed according to your picking or fingering dynamics; a fretless bass effect
that simulates that instrument's distinctive sound; and many others.
A total of 200 effect programs: 100 user
and 100 preset
You can use up to seven "REMS" modeling effects simultaneously in each program, giving you nearly limitless sonic variation.
The one hundred preset programs allow you to choose from different playing techniques and styles; sounds of every era; and
sounds that simulate the characteristic tones of famous artists. You can also edit your own sounds and store them in one hundred
user program locations. Together with the preset programs, this gives you immediate access to a total of two hundred programs.
Favorite programs can be assigned to four program memory buttons for one-touch access, letting you smoothly change programs
in an instant.
USB audio interface functionality makes the PX5D a powerful recording tool
A built-in USB audio interface is provided to transfer audio data between the PX5D and your computer via USB. This ensures
that the amazing "REMS" modeling sound is recorded into your DAW software with no loss of quality. In addition, "Ableton Live
Lite 6 Korg Edition" recording software for both the Windows and Macintosh platform is bundled with the PX5D, letting you
start recording as soon as you open the package.
PC software for editing programs, managing libraries, and
creating chains
Dedicated editor/librarian software is provided, allowing you to edit and manage programs on your computer. Simply connect
the PX5D to your computer via USB—no complicated settings are necessary. Since effect parameters and other settings
will be visible at a glance, editing the PX5D's enormous complement of effects becomes quick and easy. You can save or rearrange
programs, create libraries of programs for specific purposes, and exchange programs with other users, further extending the
potential of the PX5D.
Phrase Trainer and many other valuable functions for practicing and jamming
The PXD5D allows you to record up to eighty seconds of sound from an external audio source such as a CD, MD, or MP3, and then
play it back as a loop at a different speed, without affecting the pitch. This is a great way to practice difficult passages
or learn complex phrases. You can also record your own accompaniment, along with the built-in rhythm and bass patterns, then
play it back while you practice playing a lead—the possibilities are limited only by your imagination. A Key Transpose
function lets you change the pitch of the incoming audio source by as much as one octave upward or downward, and a Bass Canceller
function cancels the bass sound so that you can enjoy "minus-one" playing.
A total of 744 different rhythm
& bass patterns and variations that cover a broad range of styles
Rock, jazz, funk, blues, country, and many other styles are covered by 128 rhythm and bass patterns. In addition, variations
are provided for each rhythm and bass pattern, resulting in a total of 744 different patterns to choose from. Specify the
bass key and you can practice performing any style of music with amazingly authentic rhythm and bass lines. This is a great
way to improve your picking, sense of rhythm, and familiarity with scales. You can also create twenty chains, with each chain
connecting up to sixteen different rhythm patterns. And of course you can also use the effect programs at the same time.
Foot
switch jack allows hands-free control
A foot switch jack lets you control the PX5D's rich array of functionality without interrupting your performance. Connect
the included foot switch jack cable to the PX5D, and you'll be able to connect two foot switches (not included) and use them
to change programs or start/stop Phrase Trainer recording or playback.
Interface designed for intuitive operation
and excellent visibility
In spite of its compact design, the PX5D features a unique interface that delivers analog-style operation and visibility just
like a conventional amp or effect processor. The dials that control the gain or tone of the amp modeling offer instant visual
indication of each control's setting while you edit. There's also a tap button that lets you control the delay time, and a
value encoder for adjusting parameter values or the master level, all allowing intuitive operation for easy sound creation.
Functions are instantly recognizable as icons in the LCD screen. To top it off, the display is backlit for good visibility
and smooth operation even on dimly lit stages.
Many support functions, including a tuner
In addition to high-quality sound, the PANDORA series is also known for a broad range of extras that support guitarists and
bass players. A built-in tuner lets you tune easily, and includes a mute function, so you can tune silently on stage. An optimal
audio signal can be sent to any connection destination—headphones, mixer, MTR, or guitar amp—to ensure the highest
quality sound in every situation. Power can be supplied by an AC adaptor, by batteries, or via the USB connection.
