Kurzweil - KaE1 WH White

The Kurzweil KaE1 WH White portable piano easily fits into a modern interior with its sober, elegant white colour. Its 88-note hammer-action H1 Ivory keyboard provides a balanced response with a feel closer to a traditional piano than a conventional lightweight keyboard. Textured key surfaces enhance comfort during long playing sessions. The adjustable sensitivity also lets you adapt the dynamics to suit your playing style. Its portable format makes it ideal for use on the move or in confined spaces.

The KORE 1.0 sound bank features 20 different instruments, including several acoustic pianos, electric sounds, organs and other useful textures for different musical styles. The 128-note polyphony helps to keep the playing smooth even when playing rich chords and using the sustain pedal. Split, Layer and Duo functions let you share the keyboard or layer several timbres quickly. The metronome with 14 rhythm signatures is an effective accompaniment to technical exercises and tempo work. The built-in recorder makes it easy to save your musical ideas or practice sessions.

The 30 W stereo amplification powering 4 loudspeakers produces a full, pleasant sound for playing without external equipment. The Bluetooth Audio/MIDI connection makes it easy to stream music from a phone or tablet, as well as enabling certain MIDI applications to be carried out wirelessly. The USB Audio/MIDI port makes it easy to work with music software on a computer. There's also a stereo audio input, a line output and a headphone socket for different playing configurations. Battery power can also be useful for playing in places without direct access to the mains.

A sustain pedal and music stand are included for immediate use on installation. The optional ST-2 and ST-3 stands allow the keyboard to be transformed into a more fixed configuration to suit your needs. The ST-3 adds an integrated 3-pedal system to give you more of a player piano feel. The controls remain easy to understand, even for those new to the piano. This model is just as suitable for learning as it is for hobby use or composing at home.
