My beloved Korg Z1, second pro keyboard I ever bought (after a Korg N1), is no longer needed. As much as I love the physicality of its XY pad and copious controllable knobs, I've become a softsynth geek out of necessity. I'm really sad to part with it, wanted to keep it as a collector's item, hoping it would "come back" one day.

If you are looking for a unique hardware 'virtual analog', this is a great one to round out your collection. The 12-voice MOSS engine also does a very nice job of physical modeling, offering an interesting soundset beyond the usual Prophecy-esque basses, pads, and leads. The arpeggiator is also fun to play with, and quite powerful.

This Z1 is in great condition, has sat clean in a smoke-free studio for the past 4 years (but I've had it since 1999). No major cosmetic dings, only slight wear-and-tear at the edges of the XY pad, everything else looks great and works like a charm.

Comes with this memory card that I bought off of eBay (and is still being sold by the same sound designer):

Also comes with a very sturdy black semi-hard case made by Pro Tec.

Original print manual also included.

Asking $900. Serious inquires only.

Thanks!

Just did some blue book research. I'm bringing the price to $700 (plus shipping) to align better with the market value.

I have a Z1.. in UK they go for around £300.. not easy to sell... not that I would.. love that keyboard!
