It starts at C.

One of the design features of the M3 is the new Korg Kapo transpose function.

 

yes, but the Korg Kapo will not work unless you special order

the Kapo EXB FW Expansion

Another starting point ... ; must be a baritone, ya , that's it , a baaaaaritone piano , that's the ticket.

 

Thanks for the thoughtfull , conspiracy theory laden replies!

My keyboard has 88 keys, but they're not in the sequence I like. What can I do?

No guitarists were harmed during the making of this message.

 

In general, harmonic complexity is inversely proportional to the ratio between chording and non-chording instruments.

As a member of the Masons I can say with 100% surety that we had nothing to do with this. We're too busy planning our annual Baked Bean and Corn Festival, as well as our master plan to finally take back Tibet.

to solve,buy another one exactly like that and put them side by side

This one starts on G.

I've never seen one start on a black key, but just about any other one is fair game.

I like the C to C arrangement. I've always found that having the lowest bass note an "E" is not quite low enough. I'd rather give up some higher notes that I never use and have more bass notes so I can actually play the KB like a piano. Too bad the piano sound on the M3 isn't all that great. The strings could use some help too. :rolleyes:

Hey Greg:

 

I suppose its not fair to be under-impressed with the demos because all I ever heard were the NAMM demos and MP3's. Not the best quality sound to pass judgement on.

I know, and its a simple global change and the players never make the velocity edit. Its almost painful to hear the acoustic piano ' stock '
