Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 61-key professional arranger built around extensive Oriental sounds, styles, hands-on control, dual-player performance tools, and recording features.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players exploring Turkish, Persian, and Arabic musical traditions
- Performers who want to mix styles, MIDI files, and MP3s with two crossfading players
- Keyboardists who value aftertouch, sliders, buttons, joystick, ribbon control, and quarter-tone/Arabic scale tools
- Songwriters and arrangers who want a 16-track sequencer, chord sequencer, SongBook database, and MP3 recording
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need more than 61 keys
- Buyers seeking an instrument with an included amplification system
- Users who do not need arranger styles, dual-player playback, or onboard sequencing
