C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> is a digital piano that expresses all of <strong>KORG's</strong> history and experience in the professional keyboard instrument sector; it can satisfy all needs from students to the most demanding pianists, representing the perfect combination of a keybed that reproduces the same touch as a grand piano, a high-level sound engine, and an elegant and slim cabinet design. <strong>KORG C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> is an advanced concept instrument, a valid alternative to the acoustic instrument, with many advantages over the latter: for example, it can be used in places where a traditional instrument might not be usable, such as an apartment, it can be played and listened to with headphones without disturbing others, and it doesn't need tuning or maintenance. Furthermore, it is equipped with some auxiliary functions that can be a source of inspiration for all users, improving the level of musical enjoyment, including the sounds of 30 superb realistic instruments, recording, and audio streaming via Bluetooth. Finally, <strong>KORG C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> is entirely designed and manufactured in Japan, a guarantee of quality and durability.</p><h2><strong>Made in Japan Quality</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">The entire production process of <strong>KORG C1 Air-WH ASH</strong>, from keyboard manufacturing to final assembly, takes place in Japan, specifically in Miyama-cho, Nantan-shi, in the Nantan region, in the center of Kyoto prefecture, one of Japan's most famous areas for tourism and historical monuments.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The C1 Air-WH ASH keyboard</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>KORG C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> uses the "<em>Hammer Action 3</em>" (<strong>RH3</strong>) weighted keyboard, which precisely reproduces the mechanical action of a grand piano, including the characteristic touch variation caused by the weight of the hammers: heavier in the bass register of the instrument and gradually lighter towards the treble. <strong>RH3</strong> is also a very responsive keyboard for repeated notes, and allows for extremely precise dynamic control, thanks to five sensitivity levels: <em>light, normal, heavy, stable, fixed</em>. This allows the instrument's response to be adapted to the playing technique of any pianist.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="KORG C1 Air BK uses the acclaimed RH3 Keybed, the same used on professional workstations like NAUTILUS or SV2" src="/img/media/images/html/c6fa4e887a7feea2c49f75db439be8f1_pc_3973.jpg" title="KORG C1 Air BK uses the acclaimed RH3 Keybed, the same used on professional workstations like NAUTILUS or SV2"></p><h2><strong>The Design</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">The design philosophy adopted in the creation of <strong>C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> pays homage to the traditional acoustic piano while seeking to distinguish itself from other similar products. Its modern design incorporates distinctive elements such as the two slightly curved legs that elegantly highlight its profile, and the slim line with a depth of only 26 cm (10.24"), making it easy to place in any environment. The keyboard is protected by a special soft-closing cover, which also serves as a music rest when open. (* <em>Excluding the anti-tip device</em>)</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="C1 Air-WH simulates the playing experience of a German or Japanese grand piano, instruments carefully chosen for their ability to reproduce a wide frequency spectrum" src="/images/uploads//KORG_C1Air-Wh_1200x630_01.jpg" title="C1 Air-WH simulates the playing experience of a German or Japanese grand piano, instruments carefully chosen for their ability to reproduce a wide frequency spectrum"></p><h2><strong>The sound of C1 Air-WH ASH</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">The sound of a piano changes significantly depending on how it is played. To achieve this level of expressive power on a digital instrument, two concert grand pianos were carefully selected by professional pianists, properly regulated and tuned by highly experienced technicians, and sampled by KORG engineers. This complex process allows the C1 Air-WH ASH user to simulate the experience of playing a German or Japanese grand piano, instruments carefully chosen for their ability to reproduce a wide frequency spectrum, in order to practice all major musical genres: from the most refined and intense nuances of classical music to the bright and powerful sound required for Jazz and Pop. <strong>C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> is capable of naturally and satisfactorily reproducing all these musical settings.</p><ul>    <li style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Damper Resonance</strong></li></ul><p>Both acoustic piano sounds: German Grand Piano and Japanese Grand Piano, feature "<em>Damper resonance</em>", the characteristic effect produced by the sympathetic resonance of piano strings when the <em>Damper</em> pedal is pressed.</p><ul>    <li>    <h4><strong>Key-off</strong></h4>    </li></ul><p>The <strong>Key-Off</strong> accurately reproduces the characteristic sound of keys being released on an acoustic instrument. The combination of Damper Resonance and Key Off brings the realism of KORG C1 Air-WH ASH to a higher level.</p><h2><strong>The 30 sounds of C1 Air-WH ASH</strong></h2><p><strong>German Grand piano</strong> is characterized by a rich and powerful overall character, with deep bass and brilliant highs. <strong>Japanese Grand Piano</strong> has a dynamic and tonally versatile sound, allowing it to perform optimally across many musical genres, from classical to Jazz to Pop. In addition to acoustic pianos, C1 Air-WH ASH offers electric piano sounds, organs, Clav, vibraphones, acoustic guitars, strings, and much more, for a total of 30 very expressive sounds. Three high-quality effects are also available: brilliance, reverb, and chorus, already optimally adjusted for each sound, so you just need to select a timbre and start playing immediately, without thinking about anything else.</p><p><img alt="KORG C1 Air communicates via Bluetooth with devices such as smartphones or tablets, allowing music played from these devices to be heard through the piano's amplification" src="/images/uploads//KORG_C1Air-Wh_1200x630_02.jpg" title="KORG C1 Air communicates via Bluetooth with devices such as smartphones or tablets, allowing music played from these devices to be heard through the piano's amplification"></p><h2><strong>Supports Bluetooth Audio</strong></h2><p>With <strong>C1 Air-WH ASH,</strong> you can connect a Bluetooth device, such as a <em>Smartphone</em>, allowing you to play the piano along with music stored on that device. Furthermore, when not used as a musical instrument, <strong>C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> can become an efficient Bluetooth audio system.</p><h2><strong>The Stereo Sound Optimizer</strong></h2><p>This feature enhances the presence of the sound when using headphones, giving the impression of playing an authentic acoustic piano. It ensures comfortable listening even after hours of study or practice on the instrument.</p><h2><b>The amplification of</b><strong> C1 Air-WH ASH</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">The speaker system of C1 Air-WH ASH is designed to realistically reproduce the sound of acoustic pianos and other instrumental timbres, using high-quality speakers, driven by 2 x 25W amplifiers capable of generating a clear and deep sound, with incredibly defined and full bass, and a brilliant and natural high range, which fully restores the dynamic range and expressive power of a real grand piano.</p><p><img alt=" KORG C1 Air is a complete instrument, compact in size but with a great sound, easily fitting into any decor" src="/images/uploads//KORG_C1Air-Wh_1200x630_03.jpg" title=" KORG C1 Air is a complete instrument, compact in size but with a great sound, easily fitting into any decor"></p><h2><strong>The C1 Air-WH ASH Song Recorder</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> features a 2-track digital recorder to immediately save every performance. This allows you to analyze it to check your progress, or simply archive it. You can record each hand independently, or record an additional track over a previously recorded song. Playback speed can be adjusted afterwards, and up to 99 different songs can be saved in the internal memory.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><b>Ease of Use</b></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">All main functions of <strong>C1 Air-WH ASH</strong> are easily accessible from the front panel. By simply pressing a button, you can assign a bass sound to the lower part of the keyboard, allowing for Jazz-style performances with the right hand playing piano and the left hand playing bass. Alternatively, by pressing two buttons simultaneously, you can layer two sounds, such as piano and strings, for orchestral performances. The instrument also features the <strong>Partner</strong> function, which divides the keyboard into two identical left and right sections, each with its own pedal. This is an excellent method for practicing with your teacher.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>40 songs for study</strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">In addition to ten demo songs showcasing the possibilities of the various sounds, the C1 Air-WH ASH also includes 40 piano pieces that are very useful for learning. You can adjust their tempo, control the playback of the right and left hands, and use the "A-B Repeat" function to practice more complex sections.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Three pedals with <em>half-pedal</em></strong></h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Pedals are an essential element of any piano. The C1 Air-WH ASH is equipped with the three standard grand piano pedals: Damper, Soft, and Sostenuto. Furthermore, the Damper and Soft pedals feature "half-pedaling" support for greater expressive detail.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="KORG C1 Air is equipped with the three standard acoustic piano pedals: Damper, Soft, Sostenuto, to tackle the study of all piano repertoires, even the most modern" src="/img/media/images/html/01e94560fb22e984aef117df3fffe6c4_pc_d2fc.jpg" title="KORG C1 Air is equipped with the three standard acoustic piano pedals: Damper, Soft, Sostenuto, to tackle the study of all piano repertoires, even the most modern"></p><p>The <strong>KORG CONCERT series</strong> sets a new benchmark in the digital piano industry.
