Nautilus Workstation (73-key)

Imagine packing the powerhouse sound engines of Korg's legendary Kronos into a sleeker, more portable chassis—that's the magic behind this 73-key workstation, delivering flagship-level creativity without the bulk.

Its nine synthesis engines—SGX-2 for premium pianos, HD-1 PCM, EP-1 electric pianos, plus AL-1 modeling, CX-3 organs, and more—unlock over 2,200 presets with up to 200-voice polyphony and dynamic allocation to keep every note singing. A vibrant 7-inch TouchView touchscreen handles gesture-based editing, while six realtime knobs, quick-access buttons, a four-axis joystick, and the unique Dynamics knob let you sculpt sounds on the fly with effortless expression. The light-touch semi-weighted keybed spans C to C with velocity sensitivity, paired with a compact 41.8 x 15.2 x 4.6-inch metal frame that's road-ready. Dive into the 16-track MIDI/audio sequencer, polyphonic arpeggiator, 60GB SSD for samples, open sampling, and 197 effects across 16 slots—including Smooth Sound Transitions for seamless live switches.

Players love its intuitive workflow and vast sound palette for stage and studio, though some note the keybed favors synth action over heavy piano feel.
