Furniture-style Elegance in the Spirit of the Air Series
Designed to integrate naturally into an interior, the Korg E1 Air adopts the approach of modern "furniture" digital pianos: clean lines, direct controls, and a playing experience focused on daily enjoyment. Within the range, it targets musicians seeking a serious home digital piano capable of supporting both regular practice and advanced leisure playing, without unnecessary complexity.
Keyboard Design
The RH3 (Real Weighted Hammer Action 3) 88-key keyboard replicates the logic of an acoustic piano with a heavier touch in the bass and lighter in the treble. Thanks to 5 sensitivity levels, you can adjust the velocity to your technique and repertoire. The key-off simulation adds the release sensation and micro-details that make pianissimos and staccato attacks more believable, especially on piano sounds.
Sound Quality
The stereo PCM generator highlights two Italian grand pianos with distinct characters, allowing you to switch from a clear, balanced tone to a fuller, more expressive voice. Additionally, you have 30 sounds (electric pianos, organs, strings, guitars, vibraphone, etc.) to vary the colors. With polyphony up to 120 notes, sustained chords, layering, and generous pedal use remain smooth. The EvoTone system contributes to stable power supply with less noise and distortion, while the damper resonance enhances realism when the sustain pedal is used. All this is supported by effective built-in amplification: 2 x 40 W and 2 x 12 cm speakers for a wide stereo image, ideal for living rooms, classrooms, or studios.
