The Grandstage X features seven independent sound engines, each capable of standing alone as a separate product. These sound engines provide unparalleled sound and performance quality for a wide range of sounds, setting the Grandstage X apart as the flagship of stage pianos.

Premium piano and electric piano sounds with SGX-2 and EP-1
The Grandstage X is equipped with the SGX-2 acoustic sound engine and includes a vast library of world-renowned pianos. The SGX-2 offers the subtle and powerful expressiveness of an acoustic piano at the highest level, with non-looping samples on all keys, velocity switching of up to 12 levels, damper resonance that reproduces the sound of pedal pressure, and even mechanical noise. The result is a piano sound that delivers the subtle and powerful expressiveness of an acoustic piano at the highest level.

Grandstage X features 13 main pianos, including 6 well-known grand pianos selected from German, Italian, Japanese classical grand pianos. The new GSX piano and Nautilus piano can even be combined with the GSX Far Piano and Nautilus Far Piano to create the perfect piano atmosphere of your choice.

Other piano sounds include the familiar upright and small grand pianos, the OASYS piano popular with band ensembles, the legendary SG1D Korg stage piano, the M1 piano essential for 80s and 90s POPS, and the fortepiano, a period instrument, to name just a few.

In response to requests from many professional players, three mono piano tones and a midrange-focused tone variation are available. These mono piano tones, tuned from a dedicated mono recording source, and a piano tone that does not interfere with the EQ bandwidth of other instruments in a band, provide unparalleled clarity and harmony, and offer previously unavailable playing possibilities.

The electric piano sound source "EP-1" adds Tine I Early to the typical model that uses a metal rod (tine) striking method. Its earthy, distorted tone reproduces the familiar sound we all know and love from so many classic records. The collection also includes seven other vintage electric piano sounds: Tine I Late, Tine II, Tine V, DMP and 200 and 200A, which are based on the diaphragm (tube) striking method. MDS (Multi-Dimensional Synthesis) technology, an evolution of the velocity switch concept, responds smoothly to even the most delicate keyboard strokes. The German EP and Tablet EP are available to the enthusiast with sound designs that perfectly simulate and utilize realistic amplifiers, cabinets and even vintage effects.

Three unique organ sounds with CX-3, VOX and FC-1
The tone wheel organ sound source "CX-3" is a perfect reproduction of the famous Korg combo organ. The transistor organ sound source "VOX" reproduces the sound of the VOX organ, which was released in the 1960s and had a great influence on popular music. The second transistor organ sound source, the FC-1, reproduces the small organ that dominated this era, along with the VOX organ. Combined with the rotary speaker effect built into the sound source and the vibrato effect, you can truly enjoy the pleasure of playing the organ.

Diverse range of sound options from AL-1 and HD-1
The Grandstage X boasts a total of 700 sound programs. In addition to the five sound engines listed above, the Grandstage X also includes the AL-1 analog sound source for crisp leads and thick brass sounds, and the HD-1 PCM sound source for a wide range of tones and instruments. The HD-1 includes many distinctive keyboard instrument sounds, such as the 8-step multi-sampled Clavi D and Clavi E, harpsichord, pipe organ, the 6-step multi-sampled electric grand piano, and the FM electric piano with its unique metallic sound.
