PC3 PERFORMANCE CONTROLLER
The PC3 offers an enormous sound set of over 800 programs, raising the bar once again for both audio quality and variety. With the best samples in the industry, and a powerful, responsive synth engine breathing life into them, you'll feel like you're playing an actual instrument, not just playing samples. Of course there's the famous Kurzweil Triple Strike Piano, with dozens of variations to accommodate every kind of player. All of the basic sounds - basses, guitars, drums, horns and synths - have been painstakingly programmed to reflect the needs of today's professional players, representing a broad selection of styles and flavors from the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and today.
Also included is our Classic Keys ROM, which puts an impossibly large vintage keyboard rig at your fingertips. These are vintage emulations which actually sound like vintage instruments and classic recordings. The recognizable sounds of those classic electromechanical instruments, with all of their characteristic imperfections, have been faithfully re-created, along with pedals, amps and speakers. Lush Mellotrons, growling electric pianos, and punchy Clavinets are all there at the touch of a button, programmed to sound just like those classic albums.
For more vintage firepower, the PC3 is equipped with the most advanced version of Kurzweil's widely lauded KB3 Mode tonewheel organ simulator, which screams, sputters and sizzles just like the original. In addition to newly developed Leslie effects, and a new bank of B3 programs, we've also included sounds from the classic Vox and Farfisa combo organs. The PC3's 9 sliders provide real-time drawbar control.
The PC3 offers a full range of world class orchestral sounds, including our new String Section ROM bank, making it ideal for film-scoring and soundtrack projects. Every type of articulation, every nuance has been captured, with samples of full and divisi sections of violins, violas, cellos, and double bass. The details, the warm swells, animated pizzicatos and the sound of scraping rosin all add to the breathtaking effect of these string sections. You can plug and play with sounds worthy of a finished production - instant gratification with uncompromising sound quality. CALL 212-765-7300 FOR LOW PRICES NOW! Or order online at Amazon here...

What is the difference between a keyboard and a digital piano?
Most keyboards are not full 88 note instruments. They usually have 61 or 76 keys and often the keys are not full sized (they are smaller than a piano). The keys are also not normally weighted to feel like a piano. They feel like an organ (it takes no finger strength to play). Keyboards do not usually have pedals. And most importantly they are not built to accurately reproduce the true recorded sounds of the original instrument.
A true digital piano is full sized, weighted, 88 key instruments. The feel (action) is built to have the same type of feel and control as an acoustic piano. It has working pedals in the same position as a traditional piano. And most importantly, the sounds are recreated from the original (piano, flute, guitar, etc.).
Kurzweil's flagship model, the Mark 152i marries the grace and elegance of a full-sized 150cm Grand Piano with our award winning digital technology. Its top of the line hammer-weighted keyboard is adjustable to 9 levels of touch sensitivity at the push of a button. This remarkable instrument boasts 200 watts of power heard through a massive 7-channel, 7 speaker sound system that can fill an auditorium yet speak softly when desired. The Mark 152i is truly one of the finest digital ensemble instruments made.
Good things do come in small packages. The Mark 112i in its 110cm mini-grand cabinet is just the thing for a summer home, apartment or any setting where space is a consideration. Whether in a home, school, church or on stage, the Mark 112i provides Kurzweil's premium quality sampled sounds. The Mark 112i features a superb sounding 130 Watt four-channel audio system with four custom speakers designed in conjunction with Boston Acoustics.
The latest in electronic instrument chip technology has been in development for several years at Kurzweil R&D in Waltham, MA. This newest sound chip is used in the MarkPro Series, creating a powerful digital piano unlike any other. Years of research and analysis have gone into the original acoustic sampling creating a chip that could play and express a majestic and deep stereo sound and provide plentiful polyphony for any home.
88 note fully weighted hammer action with velocity sensitive adjustable keys. The MarkPro TWOi is a digital piano of great lineage. With a sound engine derived from our 2007 Electronic Musician Editor's Choice Award winning SP2X Controller, the MarkPro TWOi offers an array of performance features and superb sounds.
